In practice, this means you will:
Oversee and ensure the integrity of VAT/GST compliance processes across multiple EU and non-EU jurisdictions, partnering with internal and external stakeholders

Experience from a technology and/or scale-up start-up environment
Experience in a multinational environment, either in-house or at a leading accounting firm
