We are hiring a Head of Tax to lead both our Canadian and U.S. tax functions, ensuring compliance, optimizing our tax position, and supporting our acquisitive growth strategy on both sides of the border.

This position is based out of Dentalcorp's Toronto Support Centre and reports to the VP, Finance.

In This Role, You Will

- Lead Canadian and U.S. tax compliance, serving as the principal contact for government tax audits in both jurisdictions.
- Manage compliance and elections arising from all acquisitions.

- Manage and track all filing deadlines and requirements for both Canadian and U.S. obligations.
- Provide oversight of tax payments and estimates communicated to Treasury, and reconcile tax accounts.

- Demonstrated expertise in both Canadian and U.S. tax — compliance, provision,



M&A; tax, and cross‑border/transfer pricing matters.
- Professional accounting designation: Canadian CPA required; U.S. CPA, MST, or in‑depth CICA Tax Course an asset.
- Hands‑on experience with ERP systems and BI tools.
