John Minassian
Vice President, Content Development
As Vice President of Content Development, John leads the Content Development entity, which consists of two work groups: Income Tax Research and Transaction Tax Research.
John joined Vertex in 1999 and leads tax researchers in Sarasota supporting Vertex's income tax application and tax researchers in Berwyn supporting an assortment of transactional tax applications. Researchers are responsible for the acquisition, interpretation and staging of tax data, taxability rules and situs logic.
