Cornerstone OnDemand

Remote

Cornerstone was founded in 1999, listed on NASDAQ in 2011, acquired Saba Software in a $1.3bn deal in April 2020 and was taken private by Clearlake Capital in October 2021 for $5.2bn. As we embark on the next stage of our corporate journey, our global tax team of 8 (based in the UK, US, Canada and Romania) will be pivotal in supporting the business through a period of immense change. Clearlake Capital are known for their buy-and-build software investment strategy, so alongside our existing "business as usual" role, legal entity rationalization and ERP projects, the tax team will support the business in integrating new acquisitions.

In line with Cornerstone's vision for the future of work, this role is flexible on location, remote or in an office in certain countries.
