About the Role

We’re looking for a Tax & Compliance Specialist to take ownership of our global VAT and U.S. Sales Tax landscape.

While the role covers multiple jurisdictions, a significant part of your focus will be on U.S. Sales Tax compliance, registrations, and ongoing regulatory developments across states.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll not only manage tax processes but also act as the internal expert — proactively guiding the business through an evolving tax landscape.

If you’re looking to move into a role with ownership, autonomy, and real business impact, this role is for you.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Tax, Accounting, Finance, or related field

• 3–5 years of experience in VAT / Sales Tax compliance

• Strong interest or experience in U.S. Sales Tax (multi-state is a big plus)

• Solid understanding of EU VAT; international exposure is a plus

• Proactive mindset — you stay up to date and enjoy figuring out new tax rules

• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail

• Ability to work independently and manage multiple deadlines

• Clear communicator — able to translate complex tax topics into simple guidance

Why This Role

• Own tax across a truly global business (65+ markets)

• Deep exposure to U.S. Sales Tax complexity in a digital business

• Act as the go-to tax expert internally
