Job description

Tax Principal - EMEA | Global Technology Company

Are you an experienced international tax professional looking for a role that offers genuine breadth, autonomy and exposure to complex tax matters across EMEA?

We are recruiting a Tax Principal to join the EMEA Tax function of one of the world's most recognisable global technology platforms.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong tax professional who enjoys working across Corporate Tax, Indirect Tax, International Tax and Tax Accounting, rather than being confined to a single tax discipline.

Working within a small, collaborative and highly experienced tax team, you'll play a key role in managing regional tax obligations, supporting strategic tax initiatives and navigating an increasingly complex international regulatory environment.

The Opportunity

You'll work closely with regional and global tax colleagues, as well as Finance, Legal, Operations and external tax advisers, supporting a broad range of EMEA tax activities.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting corporate tax and indirect tax compliance across multiple EMEA jurisdictions.
• Reviewing tax provisions, deferred tax calculations, accounting journals and reconciliations.
• Managing tax filings, payments, reporting deadlines and statutory obligations.
• Supporting tax audits, tax authority enquiries and country-level tax matters.
• Monitoring developments in international taxation, including Digital Services Tax and emerging regulatory requirements.
• Advising internal stakeholders on tax implications and supporting the implementation of tax strategies.
• Identifying opportunities to improve tax processes, controls and reporting.
• Supporting regional and global tax projects, including tax planning and policy initiatives

What We're Looking For

We're interested in speaking with experienced tax professionals who can bring strong technical knowledge and a practical, solutions-focused approach.

Ideally, you'll have:

• 8+ years' experience in international taxation, gained within a Big Four practice, multinational organisation or a combination of both.
• Strong corporate tax knowledge alongside meaningful exposure to indirect taxes, particularly VAT/GST.
• Experience with tax accounting, tax provisions and financial reporting.
• An understanding of cross-border tax compliance and international tax legislation.
• The ability to manage multiple tax obligations, projects and stakeholders independently.
• Excellent communication skills and confidence working with senior stakeholders across different functions and jurisdictions.
• CTA and/or ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualifications would be advantageous.

Experience within a global technology, digital platform or other complex multinational business would be particularly interesting.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

International exposure: Work across a broad and evolving EMEA tax landscape within a globally recognised technology business.

Variety: Gain exposure to corporate tax, indirect tax, tax accounting, compliance, policy and international tax developments.

Autonomy: Join a small team where your expertise, judgement and contribution will have a direct impact.

Flexibility: A highly flexible working arrangement, with home working supported and office attendance required for important meetings, collaboration and training.

Competitive package: €120,000-€140,000 per annum, offered on a 10-month contract.

Interested?

If you're an experienced international tax professional who enjoys variety, technical challenges and the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution within a global organisation, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.
