Management Position Available; Senior Manager




Job Title: Senior Manager, Canadian Corporate Tax
Job Location: Calgary AB, Canada
Company/Employer: KPMG Canada
About Us
KPMG's Canadian Corporate tax practice advises clients ranging from growing owner managed businesses to major Canadian and multinational enterprises on tax compliance and strategies for reducing their federal and provincial corporate income and capital tax burdens. This involves assessing the effectiveness of business structures, planning the form of receipts and expenditures to achieve enhanced tax treatment, structuring acquisitions and dispositions tax effectively, and identifying available tax opportunities. Through tailored tax planning advice, our professional Tax Teams help clients gain a competitive advantage.
We understand the Oil & Gas industry, and the opportunities and risks it faces. Higher prices can create opportunities, but also lead to growing political and tax risks as other stakeholders keep a watchful eye at rising corporate profitability. We understand the vital importance of the remittability of profits, we recognize the growing tax management challenge associated with the geographical mis-match between cash-generating and cash-consuming territories, and we are conscious of the need to protect intellectual property in the form of brands, processes and technical know-how.
We understand how the taxes and tax regulations to which the industry is subject - direct and indirect taxes, royalties, customs duties, withholding taxes, transfer pricing rules (becoming increasingly significant with the growth in the use of Shared Service Centers) - shape and re-shape the environment for strategy-formulation and the active portfolio management required to monetize assets in mature regions to finance development
