• Manage and oversee all US tax compliance obligations across Codan Group entities operating within the United States.
• Take ownership of US tax issues from identification through to resolution, providing well-reasoned recommendations and practical solutions to business leaders and finance teams, while engaging the Global Head of Tax on significant or complex matters as required.
