About the Role

Salesforce is seeking a Senior Tax Analyst to manage its Canadian corporate income tax (CIT) compliance function. This role involves technically reviewing returns, analyzing financial schedules, and liaising between external advisors and internal stakeholders. The position requires strong review capabilities, systems fluency, and a proactive approach to resource management, including self-service data extraction from enterprise financial systems.

Responsibilities

Perform a detailed technical review of Canadian corporate income tax returns (T2s), GIFI alignment, and foreign affiliate reporting forms (T1134, T106) prepared by the outsourced provider.
Ensure technical accuracy, alignment with current tax law, and coordinate final internal approvals and filings.
Manage the end-to-end coordination of Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) tax incentive claims.
Work closely with internal engineering/R&D stakeholders to identify eligible projects and compile baseline costing details.
Oversee and technically review the final SR&ED technical and financial schedules compiled by the outsourced tax service provider before submission.
Partner with the internal Accounting department to secure core financial packages.
Independently execute self-service data queries and run sub-ledger or general ledger reports within corporate ERP tools to bridge any documentation gaps.
Act as the primary liaison to the outsourced tax service provider.
Deliver internally compiled data packages, provide clear technical explanations of Salesforce's financial systems data, investigate variances, and resolve provider queries.
Manage responses to queries from the CRA and provincial tax authorities.
Coordinate with the outsourced provider to draft clear technical defense memos, and independently extract system documentation required to support audit queries.
Support the global tax provision team by reviewing localized tax data needed for financial reporting purposes (US GAAP / ASC 740), ensuring outsourced return data reconciles seamlessly with internal tax accounts.
Stay updated on Canadian tax legislation amendments to evaluate impact on existing compliance structures.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or equivalent.
A CPA designation (or equivalent) is highly preferred.
4 to 7+ years of progressive corporate taxation experience, emphasizing tax return review, public accounting (Big 4 preferred), or managing outsourced vendor relationships within a global corporate environment.
Strong technology orientation and a proven ability to independently navigate financial systems (e.g., Oracle, Workday, Hyperion, Essbase) to pull trial balances, extract general ledger details, and run custom financial reports without heavy reliance on accounting teams.
Deep working knowledge of the Canadian Income Tax Act, transfer pricing concepts, and provincial allocation rules, with a proven ability to spot errors and discrepancies in external vendor outputs.
Excellent interpersonal skills with a demonstrated ability to partner cross-functionally across different geographies.
Flexibility to pivot between collaborative project management and hands-on independent data verification.
High proficiency with Microsoft Excel to manipulate dense financial reports, build baseline tax workpapers, and verify provider calculations.
Ability to commute to our downtown Toronto office 3 days per week.
