Responsibilities
- proactively identify risks and opportunities, make key decisions, and drive the practical implementation of tax requirements in internal systems.

- Lead indirect tax projects and build strategic and operational work plans so that new services, products, and market launches are tax compliant and on time.
- Manage, influence, and constructively challenge cross-functional stakeholders (Commercial, Product, Legal, Finance, IT) to deliver tax-compliant, scalable solutions - representing tax requirements assertively while balancing business objectives.
- Support and review the work of team members reconciling revenue, purchases, and indirect tax balances with the financials, drawing on a solid understanding of how indirect taxes flow through in-house financial applications and systems.
- Coordinate with external advisors on US indirect tax matters, obtain tax advice where needed, and support accurate and timely indirect tax reporting and payments.
- from scoping the challenge (including budgeting) through to solution design, execution, and implementation, managing stakeholders and relationships with external tax advisors along the way.
Requirements
- A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Tax, Economics, Law, Accounting, Finance, or a related business field
