Join a leading multinational law firm and take charge of VAT compliance across EMEA & APAC, becoming the go-to subject matter expert for Partners, Billing teams, and finance colleagues worldwide.
This high-visibility role works directly with senior leadership, leads cross-border projects and influences how the firm adapts to evolving VAT regulations and e-invoicing mandates.
Key points of interest
- Greenfield scope – Design and implement VAT workflows, controls, and training programmes from scratch.
- International reach – Work with complex VAT requirements across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific.
- High-impact projects – Lead e-invoicing readiness and improve compliance quality at source.
- Collaborative culture – Partner with colleagues and leaders in London, the US, and beyond.
This role requires Indirect Tax expertise combined with proven success in process improvement, compliance management and cross border coordination.
Prior exposure to VAT implications for professional services organisations would be useful, but this could represent an opportunity to break into the legal sector for someone eager to do so.
