Tax Advisor
Sydney CBD | Hybrid (2-3 days per week in the office)
Looking for your first move in-house, or your next step within a growing global business?
This is an exceptional opportunity to join a leading global technology company that has recently been acquired by a major private equity firm and is entering an exciting period of growth and investment. With an ambitious acquisition strategy and continued international expansion, you'll be joining the business at an exciting time, with plenty of opportunity to broaden your experience as the organisation continues to evolve.
Reporting directly to an experienced and supportive Head of Tax, you'll join a collaborative finance team where you'll gain exposure across Australia, the UK, the US and Europe. While tax compliance forms the core of the role, you'll also become involved in research, international tax matters, business partnering and acquisition activity as the business grows.
This is far more than a traditional compliance role. You'll be encouraged to think commercially, build relationships across the business and play an important role in supporting a growing international organisation.
The Role:
You'll take ownership of day-to-day tax compliance while acting as a trusted adviser to stakeholders across the business. This is a varied role where you'll manage compliance processes, respond to technical tax queries and work closely with external advisers across multiple jurisdictions.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing Australian tax compliance across income tax, GST, FBT, PAYG and payroll tax.
- Supporting tax compliance across international jurisdictions, working closely with external advisers.
- Preparing and reviewing BAS, PAYG, FBT and other tax lodgements.
- Assisting with tax provisions and tax effect accounting (experience not essential).
- Responding to tax queries from Finance, Payroll, Sales and other business stakeholders.
- Supporting tax governance and identifying opportunities to improve processes and controls.
- Assisting with technical research, acquisition activity and other ad-hoc tax projects.
- Working collaboratively with advisers across multiple countries to meet global tax obligations.
- Contributing to automation and process improvement initiatives, including opportunities to utilise AI within the tax function.
About You: You'll have approximately 4-6 years' Australian tax experience gained in either a Big 4 or mid-tier accounting firm, or a combination of professional services and industry.
You'll also bring:
- Strong Australian corporate tax compliance experience.
- Exposure to GST, FBT and other indirect taxes.
- Confidence managing compliance processes and resolving day-to-day tax matters.
- Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
- A proactive, solutions-focused approach.
- A desire to continue learning and broaden your technical and commercial tax experience.
Exposure to tax effect accounting, US sales tax or VAT would be advantageous but is certainly not essential. Why You'll Love This Role: - Join a global technology business backed by significant private equity investment.
- Be part of an exciting growth journey with regular acquisitions and international expansion.
- Work directly with an experienced, approachable and supportive Head of Tax.
- Broad exposure across Australia, the UK, the US and Europe.
- Plenty of business partnering and commercial exposure beyond traditional compliance.
- Opportunity to be involved in acquisitions, international tax and technical projects.
- Exposure to AI and automation initiatives within the finance and tax teams.
- Genuine flexibility with hybrid working (2-3 days in the office) and support for family commitments, school drop-offs and pick-ups.
- Supportive leadership that values outcomes over hours and trusts people to manage their workload.
If you're looking for an in-house opportunity where you'll continue learning, gain international exposure and join a business with exciting growth plans, I'd love to hear from you.
