As Manager, International Accounting Operations at Paxos, you are the connective tissue between our global entities and the teams that support them. You own Paxos' intercompany and transfer pricing framework-the agreements, calculations, settlement process and documentation-and serve as the accounting team's coordinator for statutory audits, regulatory examinations and tax compliance across jurisdictions. You work daily with Legal, Treasury, Strategic Finance, Tax, in-country accounting partners and external advisors to keep many moving pieces on schedule and well documented. Success looks like clear ownership maps, reliable trackers, advisors and auditors who know exactly what they need from you and when, and an entity structure whose intercompany economics are understood, supportable and consistently applied.
What you'll do
- Own the intercompany framework across Paxos' entities: maintain intercompany agreements with Legal, oversee transfer pricing calculations and periodic true-ups with external advisors, and manage intercompany invoicing, settlement and netting.
- Act as the accounting team's single point of contact for statutory audits and regulatory examinations across jurisdictions: manage PBC request lists, coordinate responses across internal teams and in-country providers, track open items and drive debriefs and follow-up improvements.
- Coordinate tax compliance support with tax advisors and the internal tax lead, gathering support, tracking filing calendars and ensuring intercompany and entity data ties to what is filed.
- Oversee the relationship rhythm with in-country accounting partners and outsourced providers so that local statutory reporting reconciles to US GAAP and is delivered on time.
- Lead or support entity projects such as restructurings, new-entity setup, functional-currency changes and the integration of acquired businesses into the ERP and reporting.
- Build and maintain the ownership maps, calendars, trackers and process documentation that let the organization see who owns what and where each deliverable stands.
- Translate accounting, tax and regulatory detail into clear updates and recommendations for Finance leadership and cross-functional partners.
- Identify gaps in process, controls and documentation and drive practical, scalable improvements.
- Immerse yourself in blockchain technology, cryptocurrency for enterprises and investors, and Paxos' regulation-first approach.
What you bring
- A minimum of 6 years of combined experience in public accounting and in-house accounting, with meaningful time at a multinational or multi-entity organization.
- A Bachelor's degree in accounting and CPA (or equivalent), strong working knowledge of US GAAP and familiarity with how local statutory reporting differs from it.
- Hands-on experience with intercompany accounting and transfer pricing-you understand how multinational groups are organized, how services and costs flow between entities, and how those arrangements are documented and settled.
- Experience coordinating statutory audits, regulatory examinations and/or tax compliance across multiple jurisdictions, including managing external auditors and advisors to deadlines.
- Exceptional organization and program-management skills: you keep many concurrent workstreams moving, anticipate dependencies and leave behind documentation others can use.
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with demonstrated success working across cultures, countries and time zones with colleagues, outsourced providers and advisors alike.
- Comfort operating in ambiguity and building structure where it doesn't yet exist.
- Proficiency with NetSuite or another multi-entity, multi-currency ERP, and comfort using AI tools to draft, summarize and organize work.
Nice to have
- Experience in financial services or other regulated entities.
- Exposure to affiliate-transaction rules or regulatory capital requirements.
- Experience with entity restructurings or functional-currency changes.
