20 roles · top end $340K · 10 of 20 in Operational Accounting

Jazz's 2025 financials included a $213M deferred tax asset benefit from the Chimerix acquisition, Pillar Two top-up tax exposure, and a highly variable effective tax rate across quarters - the kind of structural complexity that makes a senior in-house tax director a necessity rather than a luxury.
