About the Role
Senior Manager International Tax
Most in-house international tax roles put you in a box. One region. One team. A narrow remit that stops you getting close to the business. If you've hit that ceiling and you're ready for something broader, this is worth reading.
The Opportunity
This is a senior tax role with genuine international scope. You'll be the expert for a portfolio of countries, working directly with local colleagues and external advisers, taking real ownership of tax positions rather than reviewing work that others have done.
The work spans the full range: advisory on M&A and restructuring projects, monitoring of tax reporting, health checks at subsidiary level, and keeping a close eye on evolving international frameworks including BEPS and OECD developments. You'll sit close to transactions and have a voice in structuring decisions, not just compliance oversight.
It's a role for someone who wants to think strategically as well as technically, and who's comfortable moving between jurisdictions, stakeholders, and workstreams without a lot of hand-holding.
The Role
- Own the tax position for an international portfolio of group companies, including regular engagement with local finance teams and external advisers
- Monitor local tax law developments and assess the impact on the group
- Support and coordinate foreign tax audits, acting as the main contact for tax authorities and consultants
- Review tax reporting with a focus on effective tax rate consistency and tax cash flow
- Conduct Tax Health Checks, including on-site visits to group companies
- Advise on M&A transactions, internal restructurings, mergers, and liquidations, with a focus on tax-efficient structuring and post-acquisition integration
- Support due diligence processes for acquisitions
The Company
A large, internationally active business with operations across multiple countries and markets. The tax function plays a meaningful role in the business, with exposure to complex cross-border activity and a genuine seat at the table on transactions and restructuring decisions.
What You'll Need
- A German tax adviser qualification (Steuerberater) or comparable international equivalent
- At least three to five years' experience in international tax, either in-house or in a consulting firm
- Strong working knowledge of double taxation agreements, OECD guidelines, BEPS, withholding taxes, and international tax structures
- Fluent English and German
