This is a high-profile opportunity for an experienced indirect tax professional with a passion for technology and process improvement. The role will be instrumental in shaping the future indirect tax technology landscape, leading the tax workstream of a major SAP S/4HANA transformation programme and enhancing existing tax technology solutions, including Vertex.

You will be comfortable influencing senior stakeholders, managing complex projects and translating business requirements into practical technology solutions.

Why Apply?

This is a rare opportunity to move beyond traditional indirect tax responsibilities and take ownership of a business-critical transformation programme. You'll play a key role in a multi-year SAP S/4HANA journey, gain significant exposure across the business, and help shape the future of indirect tax operations on an international scale.
