About the role

  • Manage global tax compliance across all relevant jurisdictions, including VAT and corporate tax, ensuring timely, accurate filings and maintaining consistent documentation standards as the company scales.
  • Lead relationships with external advisors and tax authorities, coordinating responses for audits, regulatory queries, and complex compliance matters to manage risk and maintain a strong control environment.
  • Partner closely with R&D, Legal and FP&A to embed accurate, up-to-date tax logic into finance and billing systems.
  • Provide proactive tax guidance for new market entries, product launches, pricing structures, and commercial partnerships, ensuring tax implications are considered early in strategic discussions.
  • Define and govern tax data requirements, ensuring tax-relevant data pipelines are complete, accurate, and available for audits, reconciliations, and decision-making.
  • Collaborate with Legal and FP&A on intercompany structuring, transfer pricing documentation, budgeting for tax liabilities, and long-term tax planning.
  • Educate internal teams, build tax awareness across departments, and support stronger cross-functional decision-making by promoting a clear understanding of tax-sensitive areas.

Requirements

  • Deep expertise in Indirect Tax (VAT), especially EU VAT rules, with 5–7+ years of hands-on experience across registrations, filings, audits, and cross-border advisory.
  • Solid knowledge of global tax compliance requirements — corporate tax, wage tax, and international obligations — gained ideally in a multinational or fast-scaling environment.
  • Practical experience developing or managing tax compliance processes and internal controls, including working with ERP/billing systems to ensure accurate tax treatment.
  • Hands-on Transfer Pricing experience (3+ years), including TP documentation, benchmarking, intercompany agreements, and annual TP calculations.
  • A proven track record of leading tax audits and managing external advisers, representing your company effectively and resolving complex issues.
  • Experience with tax technology and automation tools (e.g., NetSuite, compliance trackers, VAT engines) and a desire to improve tooling and streamline tax operations.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, capable of interpreting complex tax legislation and translating it into actionable, business-friendly guidance.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with a history of advising cross-functional teams such as Finance Ops, Product, and Legal.
  • Demonstrated project management capability, with the ability to prioritize, sequence, and deliver multiple international tax initiatives within tight timelines.
  • Fluency in English; German proficiency is a strong plus for interactions with local authorities.
Benefits
  • A chance to do meaningful, people-centric work with an international team of passionate professionals.
  • Holistic well-being with free mental health coaching sessions and yoga.
  • A monthly allowance to spend on an extensive range of services that you can use and roll over as flexibly as you like.
  • Employee stock options for all employees—because everyone deserves to benefit from the success they help to create.
  • 30 annual vacation days and flexible working hours.
  • A generous learning budget to support your personal and professional development and guidance from our internal L&D experts.
  • Work from abroad for up to six weeks every year. Just align with your team, and then enjoy your trip.
  • Plenty of opportunities to socialise as a team. In addition to internal meetups, our international team hosts regular get-togethers—virtually and in person when possible.
  • Free tax declaration filing, of course, through the Taxfix app—and internal support for all personal tax-related questions.
  • Have a four-legged friend in your life? We’re happy to have dogs join us in the office.
