MTC Seeks New Executive Director

The Multistate Tax Commission, a cadre of some 47 state governments that works with taxpayers to administer tax laws applicable to multistate and multinational enterprises, said that it is conducting a search to replace long-time executive director Dan Bucks, who resigned. Bucks, 59, served with the MTC for 17 years before leaving to become head Montana's state revenue program. In the interim, René Blocker will serve as interim executive director. Under Bucks' leadership, the MTC expanded from 28 to its current roster of 47 states, increased the efficiency of its audit program, and played a key role in the commission's Streamlined Sales Tax Project. Individuals wishing to apply for the post must do so by Feb. 28, 2005. Information about the job is available at http://www.mtc.gov/CNTACTUS/ExecutiveDirectorRecruit.htm.
