Having been retained by CFOs of multinational corporations to build tax departments for three decades, I acquired substantial knowledge on tax executive compensation. This post is intended to share what I have discovered during conversations with hundreds of tax executives in the San Francisco Bay/Silicon Valley Area. In the event you currently have a need for a tax executive, you should know what tax executives with companies in the $1B to $10B range are making prior to embarking on a search for one. This is part of a 26 page report on tax executive compensation we issued in the past year.
