What will you do?

A day in the life of a Manager, Tax Accounting at VF looks a little like this.

The Tax Accounting group at VF plays a critical role within the global finance organization, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting of income taxes while supporting strategic business initiatives. With operations spanning numerous legal entities across multiple jurisdictions, the team operates in a complex regulatory environment requiring deep technical expertise in ASC 740, strong coordination across global stakeholders, and a continuous focus on process efficiency and control integrity.

To succeed, the team must maintain a comprehensive understanding of VF’s global business operations, financial reporting processes, and tax positions. Accuracy and timeliness in tax accounting are essential, as errors or control deficiencies can lead to financial misstatement risk, audit exposure, and inefficiencies. Through strong technical execution, process improvements, and collaboration, the Tax Accounting team ensures compliance, transparency, and operational excellence in reporting VF’s global tax position.

The Manager, Tax Accounting is responsible for leading and executing significant components of the global tax provision process, including planning, preparation, consolidation, forecasting, review, and external reporting. This role is expected to bring strong hands-on tax accounting experience, demonstrate ownership over complex ASC 740 matters, drive process discipline and automation opportunities, and partner effectively with cross-functional teams and external advisors. The position plays a critical role in ensuring accurate reporting to the SEC, maintaining effective controls, supporting audit readiness, and advising on business initiatives such as M&A, supply chain optimization, and global restructuring while reporting to the Senior Director – Tax Accounting & Tax Operations.
