This role requires strong accounting and tax fundamentals, a high degree of autonomy, and the ability to navigate evolving requirements across multiple jurisdictions.
Operating within a fast-paced, multinational technology-enabled professional services company spanning Europe, APAC, and North America, you will coordinate US and international tax compliance activities while independently managing key accounting, close, and reporting responsibilities.

- Prepare and post journal entries, including accruals, reclassifications, and standard close entries.
- Maintain clear and organized audit-ready workpapers to support financial reporting and external audits.
- Ensure compliance with global accounting policies and internal control standards.
- Perform monthly intercompany reconciliations and coordinate settlement with global teams.
- Support transfer pricing policies and ensure cross-charges and allocations follow internal policy guidelines.
- Support and actively contribute to regional and consolidated external audits.
- Embrace and apply emerging technologies, including AI-assisted tools, to reduce manual workloads, improve data quality, and enhance effectiveness of accounting and compliance activities.
Compliance & Regulatory Oversight
- Manage Sales & Use Tax compliance processes and Avalara administration.
- Coordinate VAT/GST compliance activities globally, partnering with external advisors while preparing supporting schedules and documentation.
- Maintain a global compliance calendar and monitor filing deadlines.

- Solid understanding of indirect tax principles — including Sales & Use Tax, VAT, and GST — with the ability to quickly grasp jurisdiction-specific requirements and ensure local filing obligations are met. Direct experience with at least one indirect tax regime required; comfort working with external advisors to navigate unfamiliar jurisdictions is essential.
- Working knowledge of US GAAP; familiarity with IFRS a plus.
- Knowledge of multi-currency accounting.
- Avalara experience strongly preferred.
- Experience working with ERP systems; Certinia experience preferred.
- Demonstrated experience supporting external audits
- Proven ability to work effectively and independently in a remote environment, demonstrating self-direction, reliability, and clear communication without the need for close supervision.
