About this task
This education foundation (51–200 employees) is looking for a manager Tax Preparation Support for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Looks at where a company may have to collect and file sales tax.
A fresh pair of experienced eyes is needed, and the result is a document or file the team can use straight away. It is a nonprofit, so budgets are tight and grant reporting dates are fixed.
The company prefers a person who can come to Odessa for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there.
What you deliver
- Analyse sales by state against nexus thresholds and produce a ranked list of states to register in.
- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope
- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed
- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer
How the work runs
- Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared
- Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback
- Last day: final version and handover note
