About the Role
Notion’s Tax team is seeking a Senior Tax Accountant to manage global indirect tax operations and enhance supporting systems. This role is crucial for ensuring compliance, close processes, audits, and tax data are accurate, scalable, and audit-ready as Notion expands its products and global presence. You will oversee sales and use tax, VAT/GST, business tax, registrations, notices, reconciliations, and related controls, while also gaining exposure to income tax compliance and reporting. The position involves hands-on, cross-functional collaboration with various departments including Accounting, Revenue, Billing, Product, Engineering, Data, and Customer Experience to reconcile data across systems.
Responsibilities
- Take ownership of recurring U.S. and global indirect-tax filings, calendars, data packages, notices, registrations, and close support.
- Establish a reliable reconciliation and exception workflow across billing, tax engines, filings, payments, and the general ledger, escalating issues clearly and early.
- Use AI-enabled workflows and data tools to investigate variances, quality-check work papers, and improve documentation while preserving human review and controls.
- Make tax operations more scalable and audit-ready by strengthening controls, process documentation, evidence, handoffs, audit support, and SOX walkthrough readiness.
- Become a trusted partner to Accounting, Revenue, Billing, Product, Engineering, Data, and Customer Experience.
- Contribute to income tax compliance and reporting with guidance from experienced teammates.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- At least 3 years of public accounting and/or industry tax experience, with a primary focus on indirect tax compliance and operations.
- Hands-on experience with indirect tax compliance or operations, especially U.S. sales and use tax, VAT/GST, business taxes, or other non-income-based taxes.
- Experience preparing accurate reconciliations, journal entries, filings, payments, and audit-ready work papers, with the ability to connect activity across source systems and the general ledger.
- Strong operational judgment: manage recurring deadlines, investigate exceptions, keep documentation organized, escalate issues promptly, and drive assigned work through completion.
- Clear written and verbal communication, with a collaborative approach to working across Finance, Accounting, business teams, and external advisors.
- Curiosity and learning agility, including willingness to build income-tax capability and demonstrated AI fluency—using AI to analyze data, investigate variances, improve documentation, perform quality checks, or automate repeatable workflows while validating outputs and protecting sensitive information.
