Gary Rademaker Email & Phone Number

Over a span of 25 years, I have built a solid and broad foundation in corporate tax. My journey began in public accounting, where, after seventeen enriching years, I realized a preference for focusing on a deep, singular client relationship rather than managing multiple ones. My expertise spans the intricate nuances of key competencies, ranging from detailed accounting for income taxes and disclosure for SEC registrants and private companies, to strategic initiatives aimed at minimizing tax liabilities and optimizing financial processes.I've always taken a proactive approach to tax risk management. By continuously monitoring the ever-evolving tax landscape and implementing preventive measures, I aim to sidestep unforeseen tax liabilities and maintain a positive standing with taxing authorities. Compliance has always been paramount. My commitment to this principle is evident in my exemplary compliance record, reinforced by rigorous review processes, continuous training, and the strategic engagement of external advisors.Strategic tax planning is essential and should align with corporate objectives. This alignment ensures that business decisions are well-informed, capitalize on available credits and incentives, and maintain a predictable effective tax rate. Recognizing the interconnected nature of business operations, I've championed cross-functional collaboration. Through effective communication and teamwork with finance, operations, and business development teams, I believe tax insights become integral to broader business strategies, laying the groundwork for comprehensive and informed corporate decision-making.My journey in the tax world is punctuated by a transformative eight-year tenure as Director of Tax at Cboe Global Markets, Inc., and foundational roles at KPMG LLP. On the academic front, I hold a Master's in Accounting, specializing in Taxation, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a Bachelor's degree in Accountancy from the University of Maryland College Park.As I continue to progress professionally, my commitment to tax excellence, combined with a forward-thinking vision and passion for cultivating a standout organizational culture, defines my aspirations. As a senior leader within a dynamic corporation, I am driven by the belief that my unique blend of skills and experiences can profoundly impact success, deliver unmatched value, and make both immediate and enduring contributions.
