ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
As our Tax Manager - Germany, you will take full end-to-end ownership of all German tax topics while operating with a global mindset. Reporting directly to the Head of Tax, you will join a lean, agile team that prioritises fast decision-making, direct ownership, and continuous professional growth.
In this role, you bridge the gap between core compliance and strategic business enablement. You won't just analyze tax codes - you will sit alongside Product, Legal, Finance, and Regulatory teams to evaluate tax implications, build operational systems, design robust controls, and launch innovative financial products.
We handle a significant amount of our tax work in-house - supported by strong external partners giving you true end-to-end impact from local execution to cross-border advisory.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Strategic Tax Advisory & Product Launch: Partner directly with Product, Business, and Legal teams to evaluate tax implications for new product launches, restructurings, and international expansion. Design scalable tax processes, workflows, and controls from scratch.
- Tax Audits & Authority Relations: Lead external tax audits, serve as the primary point of contact for German tax authorities, and manage relations with external tax advisors.
- Compliance & Filings: Oversee accurate, timely, and compliant tax filings across CIT, VAT, and Withholding Tax (WHT) in Germany.
- Stakeholder Enablement: Translate complex tax legislation into clear, pragmatic, and actionable advice for non-tax stakeholders across Product, Legal, Marketing and Accounting.
