Job description

Our story

Every year, millions struggle with tax filing or miss out on tax refunds. We're fixing that. Our intuitive app empowers everyone, regardless of background, to file taxes confidently.

Operating across Germany, Spain, and the UK, Taxfix Group (Taxfix and Steuerbot) is a team of over 400 professionals-tax experts, developers, and IT specialists-committed to solutions. Since 2016, we've enabled over 3.5 billion euros in tax refunds for our customers.

The opportunity

Taxfix is creating expert-assisted digital tax services, blending software, AI, and licensed human expertise for easier filings. We're hiring a Commercial Leader, Expert-Assisted Services to drive and scale this business area as a key growth engine.

This senior role requires commercial and general management skills-defining customer segments, service design, pricing, demand generation, conversion, retention, and efficient scaling without compromising trust or quality. You'll balance growth, margin, capacity, costs, and outcomes, working closely with peers across Product, Operations, Marketing/Growth, Data, and Finance, and aligning teams to business and commercial goals.

Your responsibilities

• Business leadership: Set ambition, priorities, and execution plans, owning revenue, margin, conversion, retention, and outcomes.

• Customer strategy: Identify high-value segments and craft differentiated propositions and journeys.

• Pricing and packaging: Build offers addressing diverse needs, complexity, and willingness to pay, ensuring revenue quality and margin.

• Growth engine: Boost acquisition, booking, retention, and renewal through disciplined experimentation.

• Service model: Balance demand, expert capacity, quality, handling time, and cost; determine where automation or human expertise adds value.

• Product, commercial, and ops: Collaborate to translate insights into scalable roadmaps and workflows.

• AI integration: Apply AI to enhance customer guidance, personalization, delivery, QA, and workflows, maintaining quality and trust.

• Performance discipline: Create KPIs, forecasts, dashboards, and reviews to drive focus and accountability.

• Organization building: Define capabilities and ownership, prioritize hiring, and improve cross-functional execution.

What success looks like

Within 12 months: clearer customer/value proposition, structured pricing and offers, and a focused growth plan.

• Accelerated, more predictable revenue and recurring revenue growth.

• Improved conversion and retention via better product-customer fit.

• Stronger margins and unit economics through pricing, scope, and capacity alignment.

• Scalable operating model integrating automation, AI, and human expertise.

• Comprehensive commercial and operational KPIs (revenue, conversion, gross margin, time to submit, service quality, CSAT/NPS, chargebacks).

• Operating cadence enabling faster, data-driven decisions across teams.

Your profile

• Extensive experience in GM, commercial leadership, growth, operations, or BU leadership within tech-enabled services.

• Direct responsibility for revenue and P&L (pricing, margin, unit economics).

• Experience scaling hybrid digital/human service models.

• Deep understanding of service operations (capacity, utilization, quality, CX, cost-to-serve).

• Track record designing or refining pricing and propositions for varied customer needs.

• Strong commercial judgment across acquisition, conversion, retention, and recurring revenue.

• Builder mindset-moving from diagnosis to action.

• Proven cross-functional leadership beyond hierarchy.

• Data-driven, hypothesis-led in ambiguous settings.

• Professional German (C1+) and fluent English.

• Deep knowledge of the German or DACH consumer market.

Relevant backgrounds

We favor leaders who have built or scaled:

• Software- or tech-enabled consumer services

• Digital health, care, coaching, or advisory platforms

• FinTech, TaxTech, LegalTech with a significant human-service aspect

• Subscription businesses with operational complexity

• Marketplaces or managed services balancing demand, expert capacity, and quality

• Comfortable with customer segmentation, pricing, margin, utilization, and quality.

• Use data for decisions, acting without waiting for perfect info.

• Turn strategy into experiments, operating rhythms, and measurable results.
