Job description

Why qlub

The end of a great meal shouldn't be the slow part. Waiting for the check, finding someone to take payment, splitting a bill by hand. qlub removes that friction. Guests scan a QR code and pay in seconds. No app, no download, no waiting.

From Pay-at-Table and Digital Menus to Order-and-Pay, Payment Links, and SoftPOS terminals, we handle the full payment experience so restaurants can focus on what they do best: great hospitality. Less friction means faster table turnover, smoother operations, and higher profit.

We're a fast-scaling fintech backed by Mastercard, Mubadala, e& and Shorooq. $72M raised, live across multiple markets worldwide, and headcount doubled in the past year. We're building the teams that take us to the next stage.

The role

qlub is scaling fast across markets worldwide, and we look for people who take real ownership of their work. As our Assistant Tax Manager, you’ll own tax compliance across every market we operate in. You’ll be the person who keeps us compliant and audit-ready as we expand, partnering closely with finance, legal, and country teams to build a tax function that scales with the business. If you want to build something, not just maintain it, this role is for you.

What you’ll own

• End-to-end direct and indirect tax compliance across every market we operate in: VAT, Corporate Tax, Zakat, and WHT, filed accurately and inside statutory deadlines
• UAE Corporate Tax, start to finish: registrations, computations, returns, and documentation
• KSA Zakat, VAT, and WHT, including all coordination with ZATCA and external advisors
• E-invoicing implementation and ongoing compliance everywhere it’s required
• Tax structuring and compliance for new and international entities as we scale, including the US entity
• Clean cross-border and intercompany positions, with transfer pricing documentation that holds up
• Accurate tax provisioning, reconciliations, and reporting at every month-end close
• The tax impact of new products, campaigns, and business models, partnering early with product and ops
• Tax processes, controls, and documentation that keep us audit-ready by default, with a close eye on regulatory change across jurisdictions

Who you are

• You’ve owned multi-jurisdiction tax in a fast-moving, high-growth environment
• You move fast and make strong decisions with incomplete information
• You take real ownership and think like an operator, not a coordinator
• You’re energized by building processes and controls from scratch, not inheriting them

What you’ll need

• 3 to 5 years of tax experience, with strong hands-on knowledge of UAE Corporate Tax and VAT, and KSA Zakat, VAT, and WHT
• A bachelor’s in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; CA, CPA, ACCA, or equivalent preferred
• Exposure to multi-jurisdiction tax compliance
• Proficiency in ERP systems (MS Dynamics or similar) and advanced Excel
• Fluency in English is a must

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience implementing e-invoicing
• US tax exposure
• Experience in fintech, payments, or another high-growth environment

What we offer

• Real ownership over products that impact millions of diners and thousands of restaurants globally
• The opportunity to solve challenging problems in payments, hospitality, and customer experience
• A fast-moving environment where great ideas quickly become reality
• Close collaboration with experienced operators, builders, and industry experts
• A chance to leave a visible mark on one of the fastest-growing restaurant technology companies globally
