The results of the study indicate that IM has a positive and significant impact on job satisfaction and perceived service quality. Effective IM practices, including training, internal communication, rewards, and empowerment, were proven to enhance employee job satisfaction, which ultimately contributed to the improvement of service quality to the public. The conclusion of this study is that optimal implementation of internal marketing can improve employee job satisfaction and service quality in the public sector. Therefore, recommendations for the Tax Service Office include strengthening IM implementation, improving work facilities, and ensuring effective internal communication.
