The Role

We’re looking for an experienced tax professional who can help clients transform their tax function through smart technology, strong process design, and practical tax expertise.

As a Senior Consultant in our Tax Technology team, you will work at the intersection of German tax law, tax processes, and software implementation. You understand how tax departments operate, how regulatory requirements translate into practical processes, and how technology can make tax work more efficient, compliant, and scalable.

You will support companies of different sizes and industries on their journey toward fully digital tax functions. Clients will look to you not only as a tax expert, but also as a trusted advisor who can translate complex tax requirements into clear, practical solutions within our GlobalTaxCenter tax software and related consulting projects.

You will work closely with tax specialists, IT experts, product teams, and client stakeholders to shape the ongoing development and implementation of our solutions. If you enjoy combining technical tax knowledge with consulting, problem-solving, and client-facing work, this role offers the opportunity to make a real impact.

What you’ll do

• Tax Technology & product development Work with tax and IT experts to translate German tax law requirements into functional concepts for our GlobalTaxCenter tax software. You will analyze and objectify tax laws, BMF letters, accounting regulations, and relevant HGB / IFRS requirements so they can be implemented in tax expert systems.
• Tax advisory & expert input Bring your income tax and tax process expertise into software development, client discussions, and internal knowledge-building. You will help ensure our solutions remain technically accurate, practical, and aligned with current legal and regulatory developments.
• Implementation projects Lead or support challenging client implementation projects, helping tax departments introduce and configure our software in line with their business needs, tax processes, and compliance requirements.
• Tax CMS / ICS consulting Support clients in the design, documentation, and technical implementation of Tax Compliance Management Systems and Internal Control Systems, combining process understanding with practical technology solutions.
• Client enablement & training Prepare training materials, deliver webinars and client training sessions, and help customers stay up to date with new developments, legal changes, and software enhancements.
• Stakeholder management Communicate regularly with clients, internal product teams, tax experts, and project stakeholders. You will be expected to explain complex tax topics clearly and confidently to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Thought leadership & expert groups Contribute to the development of specialist topics within the team and, where relevant, participate in external tax expert groups or committees.

What you bring to the table

• Degree in tax, finance, business administration, economics, law, business informatics, or a related field.
• Several years of professional experience in tax advisory, corporate tax, tax technology, tax compliance, audit, or a related field.
• Strong knowledge of German tax law, especially income tax, and a clear understanding of current tax legislation, processes, and regulatory developments.
• The ability to analyze complex tax issues precisely and translate them into practical concepts, processes, or software requirements.
• Experience working with tax technology, tax software, tax CMS / ICS, ERP systems, or digital tax transformation projects is a strong advantage.
• Strong consulting mindset, with the ability to work confidently in client-facing projects and communicate with stakeholders at different levels.
• Excellent communication skills in German and English, both written and spoken, ideally C1 level or above.
• A structured, independent, and responsible way of working, with strong attention to detail.
• Open-minded, proactive, solution-oriented, and comfortable working in interdisciplinary teams.
• A strong interest in technology and digital transformation in tax. Programming skills are not required, but an affinity for IT and software-based solutions is highly welcome.
• Comfortable taking ownership of workstreams, mentoring junior colleagues, and contributing to the development of internal standards and best practices.

To be considered for this role, candidates must have the legal right to work in the country of employment.
