Role
Who you are
- This individual will need to be well versed in indirect non-US tax requirements, registration and filing, and be able to work with our talented cross-functional teams who support the indirect tax function
- Clear communicator: You translate complex research into insights that drive decisions
- Collaborative partner: You work effectively with operations teams, product, and leadership
- Systems thinker: You see how operational pieces connect and look for leverage points for improvement
- Builder mindset: You don't just answer questions—you build infrastructure so teams can answer their own
- 2+ years of relevant indirect filing experience in VAT and/or GST/HST
- Deep knowledge of global indirect tax issues and solutions in the technology industry
- Proven ability to investigate complex issues and drive them to resolution
- Ability to manage multiple priorities with urgency and accuracy
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to research and communicate complex technical tax issues clearly to non-tax team members and work effectively across functional teams
- Comfort working in ambiguity and high-accountability environments
- You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description. Your skills and passion will stand out—and set you apart—especially if your career has taken some extraordinary twists and turns
Desirable
- An advanced degree or professional qualification in tax or accounting (CPA, Chartered Accountant)
- Comfortable working with LLM and/or SQL knowledge
- Experience with non-US tax registrations and communicating with international tax authorities
- Experience in tax operations, financial services, or regulated operational environments
- Understanding of operational workflows (filing processes, user operations, risk management)
- Experience partnering with operations leads and data analysts
What the job involves
- As technology evolves, so do our tax reporting requirements and filing capabilities. Our indirect obligations and filing requirements continue to grow with the business, and we are looking for someone who can not only maintain but help further build our path to global sales tax execution
- Own high-risk, cross-functional escalations that do not have a clear playbook
- Drive accountability through metrics, project tracking, and operational reporting
- Investigate recurring issues and identify root causes
- Partner cross-functionally to remove blockers and prevent repeat failures
- Serve as an escalation partner for issues requiring leadership visibility, root cause thinking, or coordinated resolution
- Support operational readiness and respond quickly to external changes impacting the organization
- Ensure timely follow-through and closure on issues, decisions, and action items
- Provide visibility into friction points, risks, and remediation strategies
Application process
- The application window will remain open for 100 days after the Job Post is published. However, this opportunity will remain open based on the needs of the business, which may cause the application window to close before or after the 100-day mark
Our take
Stripe, nowadays a FinTech giant, spent the first few years since its founding building up its payments business, which primarily consisted of providing an API to eCommerce businesses so that they could easily integrate a payment option in their apps or websites, where before there was none.
More recently, Stripe has started to accelerate its growth with a significantly larger range of financial services including cash advances and credit cards. They also plan to build incorporation services, fraud protection, and more, diversifying its revenue away from payments and differentiating itself from its competitors.
To further expand its position, the company is extending its services to countries with vast customer potential, including Brazil, Japan and India. It is also partnering with OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT - a win-win collaboration that is monetising OpenAI’s flagship products and at the same time enhancing Stripe with GPT-4, as it moves forward with intentions to "build the payments foundation for tomorrow's AI economy."
