Your role will involve developing, implementing, and refining tax strategies that align with business goals across multiple markets. You will partner with Account Managers to address escalated finance and tax-related inquiries, ensuring clients receive accurate and timely guidance. Your ability to translate complex tax regulations into actionable insights will be crucial in helping clients comply with local e-invoicing mandates and optimize their VAT reclaim processes.
