Descripción del empleo

Mission

Lead Addi's tax function across Colombia, US, and Cayman Islands as the company completes its transition to Compañía de Financiamiento y se posiciona para IPO. Esta persona es el dueño interno del ETR consolidado, dirige (no sigue) a EY y KPMG, y convierte el área de impuestos en una ventaja competitiva — con cumplimiento impecable, optimización cuantificada y automatización real.

What you will do

• Design and operate a multi‑jurisdiction compliance calendar (VAT, ICA, WHT, CIT, US, Cayman) where EY and KPMG execute against high‑quality inputs — not the other way around.

• Own end‑to‑end annual filings with at least 3 depuration items quantified and defended before submission. Advisors confirm positions — they don't discover them.

• Take full ownership of all tax‑related close inputs: current tax accruals, deferred tax movements, UTP tracking, and NetSuite reconciliations.

• Develop the consolidated ETR model across Colombia, US, and Cayman — including WHT leakage at each layer. This is the most critical outcome for IPO readiness.

• Deliver real results — filed positions, signed agreements, approved policies. Not advisory decks. Day‑1 backlog already scoped: Art. 107 ET board policies, WHT Category B defense, IC debt repayment cadence, CIT depuration 2025, Cayman economic substance.

• Lead tax's contribution to Addi's Finance AI Champions program. AI proposes — Tax Manager authorizes and signs.

What we’re looking for

Colombian Tax Expertise — Operational & Corporate

• Builds filing positions and workpapers that hold up under audit scrutiny without relying on advisors to find the gaps.

• Has navigated DIAN audits, formal requerimientos, or discrepancy notices with documented, defensible responses.

• Identifies depuration opportunities proactively — not reactively after the return is filed.

Multi‑Jurisdiction Ownership

• Maintains a consolidated ETR view across entities, identifying WHT leakage and structuring inefficiencies at each layer.

• Coordinates distributed data owners (Accounting, Treasury, Legal) to ensure advisors always receive complete, on‑time inputs.

• Resolves technical disagreements with external counsel from a position of knowledge, not deference.

Tax Accounting & Close Partnership

• Maintains a DTA/DTL model that reflects rate changes, timing differences, and provisioning methodology with zero unexplained variances.

• Owns tax balance sheet accounts at quarter‑end — reconciled, documented, and audit‑ready.

• Proactively flags uncertain tax positions (UTPs) and quantifies exposure before close, not after.

Operational Excellence — Processes That Scale

• Builds compliance trackers with clear owners, data sources, cutoffs, and evidence storage — fully documented and handover‑ready.

• Reduces advisor turnaround time by improving input quality upstream, not by following up downstream.

• Creates recurring checklists and review gates that catch errors before filing, not after.

Strategic Optimization — Quantified & Executed

• Translates tax opportunities into P&L and cash flow impact that CFO and Finance can act on.

• Drives optimization projects end‑to‑end: from diagnosis and structuring to filing, documentation, and monitoring.

• Maintains a live optimization backlog prioritized by impact and execution complexity.

Cross‑Functional Communication & Upward Influence

• Communicates tax risk and opportunity in business terms — not technical jargon — enabling faster decisions across teams.

• Proactively educates internal partners (Procurement, Payroll, Product) on tax implications before they create compliance issues.

• Presents confidently to senior leadership and regulators, with positions that are defensible, clear, and well‑documented.
