About Us

In 1914, Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton posted a job ad in London that read, "Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success."

While our wages are not low and we are not limiting our hiring to men only, we believe in the sentiment Shackleton expressed.

Commenda is a dedicated company aiming to build products and services that save the free world and end the Democracy Tax. We are the leading platform for businesses to interact with governments worldwide. We're venture-backed and ambitious.

• Provide expertise on international tax and compliance processes.
• Help define best practices and standardize approaches across jurisdictions.

Requirements
