_Position Overview_

As an overview of the position, the role requires a strong working knowledge of U.S. international tax principles, primarily to support the international tax provision function. The role requires a pro-active approach with excellent collaboration, organizational and communication skills to effectively work with the U.S. and non-U.S. tax and provision teams, as well as to provide clear information to stakeholders in the Tax and Finance departments. Previous tax provision experience and knowledge of ASC 740 principles is highly desirable.

While the focus of the role is the quarterly and annual tax provision, the International Tax team works collaboratively and so there will be crossover responsibilities with tax compliance and over time the opportunity to focus on areas of specific interest. Continual evaluation of the process and the identification and implementation of process and data improvements is part of the Morgan Stanley culture. To be successful in managing these responsibilities, we would generally expect that the person hired would have 3-7 years of relevant experience.
