About This Role:
We are seeking a Transaction Tax Data Analyst to support our indirect tax function by integrating, transforming, and analyzing data from multiple systems. The ideal candidate has strong data management skills, including combining disparate data sources into a single, reliable dataset using tools such as Alteryx, Data360, or similar platforms. This role partners closely with IT to understand data architectures, tables, and data flows to enable accurate tax calculations, filings, analytics, and reporting.

What You’ll Do:

• Build, maintain, and optimize data pipelines to combine data from multiple sources into a single source of truth for transaction tax.
• Use tools like Alteryx, Data360, or similar to perform data cleansing, enrichment, de-duplication, and reconciliation.
• Partner with IT to understand data storage locations, schemas, table relationships, and access methods; create/maintain documentation and data dictionaries.
• Develop robust data validation and reconciliation checks to ensure completeness and accuracy of taxable sales, exemptions, rates, jurisdictions, and filings.
• Automate recurring data workflows and reporting for compliance, audits, and management insight.
• Support monthly/quarterly tax return preparation with accurate data extracts and audit-ready support.
• Investigate and resolve data anomalies, mapping gaps, and system issues affecting tax calculations.
• Collaborate with Tax, Finance, and IT on system enhancements, source data changes, and process improvements.
• Create reusable templates, standard operating procedures, and governance controls for tax data.
• Prepare clear dashboards and reports to communicate trends, risks, and KPIs.

Do You Have?

• Strong data management background with hands-on ETL experience combining multiple data sources into a unified dataset.
• Proficiency with a workflow/data preparation tool such as Alteryx, Data360, or similar (e.g., KNIME, Talend, Informatica, Power Query).
• Solid SQL skills for querying, joining, profiling, and validating large datasets.
• Experience working directly with IT to locate data, understand table structures, and troubleshoot data pipeline issues.
• Ability to interpret tax-relevant data elements (e.g., product codes, exemption codes, jurisdictions, taxability rules) and how they flow through systems.
• Strong analytical, documentation, and problem-solving skills; comfort with large/complex data sets.
• Excellent communication skills to translate technical data issues for non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience in transaction taxes is a strong plus but not required
