  • Evaluate TPRs, discounts, and markdown impacts

  • Monitor sales tax returns and submit corrections where needed

  • Support external CPA partners with financial statements, audits, and tax preparation materials

Financial Operations & Business Support

  • Ensure financial statements are accurate, reviewable, and delivered on schedule

  • Monitor budget overages and underages and bring attention to variances

  • Ensure taxes are filed accurately and on time across jurisdictions

Skills
