Role Background

As we continue to scale, we’re now looking for an experienced Direct Tax Manager to join the team. In this role, you’ll be involved in global corporate tax projects on planning, implementation and tax reporting, ensuring compliance and supporting the organization with these topics. 

What makes the Finance team so special is our ‘service first’ approach to the job - we enjoy creating strong communication loops with the wider business, so that bottlenecks are minimised and that things get done quickly and efficiently.

Everybody is accountable for their own workload and takes pride in being meticulous and precise. We also enjoy learning and developing as we go - it’s important that you share this approach! :)

What you’ll be doing

• Instruct and advise the business and other finance teams on direct tax questions
• Manage international direct tax compliance and tax reporting processes (CIT, WHT etc.) across Wolt's global entities, in close collaboration with the accounting team
• Develop and implement tax processes across the organization, driving efficiency in compliance and reporting through testing and using several AI tools
• Monitor global corporate tax developments and help shape our responses and strategies
• Provide advice and arrange training on international tax matters

Our humble expectations

• Significant, hands-on experience in corporate income tax processes in relevant international environments
• Experience with IFRS or US GAAP tax reporting is seen as an advantage
• Master's degree in Finance, Accounting, Law or similar
• Strong finance or accounting skills
• Experience working at a senior level, with the ability to take responsibility, drive initiatives and guide others
• Curiosity and willingness to develop, test and adopt new ways of working, including AI tools, and to drive efficiency
• The Wolt usuals: Ability and passion to work autonomously in a fast-moving international environment, strong relationship building and customer service mindset, and a true growth mindset to consistently learn and develop skills.

A note on technology

Wolt has a separate tax technology team, so you don't need to be a technical person. What matters is that you're willing to develop and test new solutions, work together with the tax technology team, and drive efficiency in how we work.
