Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I work on a variety of tasks relating to mainly corpoarte tax, VAT and employment. The tasks vary day to day but there is repeatablity with some of the VAT work already and there will be annually with the corporate tax tasks. I work directly with the regional tax directors who set me ad hoc tasks. I have learnt a lot in the short time I have been at Cummins.
