The Equity and Mobility Tax Manager will oversee the tax aspects of Bolt’s employee equity compensation and global mobility programs. You’ll manage global tax compliance, reporting, and planning for stock options and RSUs while optimising the tax treatment of employee mobility across multiple jurisdictions. This is a strategic and hands‑on role that requires strong technical expertise, an analytical mindset, and close collaboration with HR, Legal, Finance, and external advisors. You’ll help shape global tax operations and ensure compliance while supporting Bolt’s continued growth across markets.

Main tasks and responsibilities:

• Manage global tax compliance and reporting for equity-based compensation, ensuring accuracy and adherence to local regulations.
• Collaborate with HR, Legal, and Finance to oversee tax aspects of equity programs, including stock options and RSUs.
• Advise on tax strategies for globally mobile employees, ensuring compliance with complex cross‑border and social security rules.
• Monitor and provide guidance on tax implications of relocations, short-term assignments, and cross-border travel.
• Maintain strong relationships with internal teams and external advisors to manage compliance, audits, and risk.
• Stay updated on global tax legislation impacting equity and mobility to ensure effective compliance and planning.

About you:

• Significant experience in global mobility tax, including equity compensation tax management, gained at a consultancy firm or in‑house.
• Self‑driven, proactive team player with a hands‑on mentality, excellent communication skills, and strong attention to detail.
• Capable of independently handling complex tax issues related to equity compensation and global mobility with minimal supervision, escalating only the most complex cases.
• Strong knowledge of international tax matters impacting employee mobility, corporate taxation, withholding taxes, and social security coordination. Experience with UK CSOPs, French free share plans, and U.S. 409A requirements is a strong advantage.
• Intellectually curious, with a desire to continuously learn, adapt, and grow within the role, and the ability to take a creative approach to problem‑solving while considering the company’s priorities.
• Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build strong relations with internal stakeholders and teams in a multicultural global entrepreneurial environment.
• Drive, intelligence, and integrity – even if you don’t tick every box, we encourage you to apply if you feel you are the kind of person described above.

Why you’ll love it here:

• The Finance team manages the amount of risk Bolt should take to receive an adequate return on investment. Our team is focused on acquiring financial resources, obtaining funds, and providing information that other business functions require.
• Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.
• Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as Bolt succeeds, so do you.
• Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.
• Celebrate 5 years at Bolt with a 1‑month paid sabbatical to recharge.
• Connect with colleagues at annual company events and smaller team gatherings.
