Alliantgroup has appointed former US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) official Ron Schultz to its AlliantNational office in Washington DC.
In his new role, Schultz will be help certified public accountants and taxpayers, including captives insurance companies, navigate uncertain tax positions and other tax controversy matters.
Steven Miller, national director of tax at Alliantgroup, commented: “In my years working side by side with Schultz at the IRS, there was no better advisor. His experience in multiple areas of the service and his vast tax background as a certified public accountant and tax lawyer will be a tremendous asset for our clients."
Schultz worked in a number of key roles at the IRS, including as senior technical advisor for the commissioners of tax exempt and government entities and large and mid-size business, as well as for the deputy commissioner for services and enforcement.
Schultz’s appointment follows the hire of three former IRS leaders—Howard Lewis, Dorothy Taylor and Rob Cerruti—in September.
