Job description

VAT is moving fast toward digital reporting and data-driven compliance

You have to get it right the first time. Most organizations are challenged and working with:

• Fragmented solutions
• Unclear ownership

VATWorkx exists to fix that — by combining deep indirect tax expertise with hands-on technology that works in practice.

What we do

Indirect tax, made understandable and manageable

Through innovative solutions and personal guidance, we remove fiscal complexity for businesses.

We aim to be the most accessible and forward-thinking VAT partner — making data and processes intuitive and seamless.

1960

Founded

A VAT advisor and an IT specialist — that mix is still the whole idea.

0 team

Tax + tech

Advisors, accountants, data analysts and engineers, side by side.

What makes us different

No unnecessary layers

We implement and develop solutions built for what’s coming — including temporarily taking over in-house tax functions. Direct access, fast decisions, real accountability.

Tax + tech in one team

Advisors working side-by-side with engineers and data specialists — not handing tickets between separate departments.

Pragmatic by default

We combine tax content with pragmatic solutions, and focus on what works in live systems and real data.

Real exposure, early

Client contact and ownership from the start — the work you do is the work that ships.

Our team

In their own words

What I like here: we don’t just explain the rules, we fix the process. You get ownership early, and you work with tech and data colleagues who actually build.

The projects are hands-on and high impact: compliance, controls, carve-outs, system changes. You’re close to the client and close to decisions — no waiting weeks for approvals.

You’re building integrations that matter: APIs, ERP links, automation, cloud. The pace is real, and the expectations are clear: ship reliable work and keep improving it.

Shape the future of Indirect Tax

We are a new-generation player in the indirect tax and technology space, helping companies move from traditional compliance to data-driven, automated, and future-proof VAT operations.

• Strong technical foundation and pragmatic mindset
• Interest in technology, systems, and data
• Comfortable in a dynamic, growing environment
• Strong communicator in English (Dutch is a plus)
• Self-starting, flexible, proactive, and you take ownership

Nice to have

• Experience with ERP systems (e.g. SAP, Oracle, MD365, Workday) and/or tax engines
• Exposure to e-invoicing, automation, or digital reporting (SII / SAF-T)
• Experience with data analytics solutions (such as KNIME, Alteryx, Power BI)
• Experience with VAT Reconciliation

What you’ll get

• A competitive package including a monthly salary in the range of €5,000 to €8,000 depending on experience
• A key role in a fast-growing Tax & Technology studio
