Senior Tax Manager

JOB SUMMARY

As Senior Tax Manager, you're the senior tax leader for the JOE & THE JUICE Group, with global responsibility across all our markets, from Europe to the US to the Middle East (Franchise). Based at our Copenhagen HQ and reporting to the VP of External Reporting, Controlling and Tax, you'll build and lead a best-in-class in-house tax function from the ground up. You'll own everything from corporate income tax and cross-border structuring to VAT, indirect taxes and withholding, keeping us compliant while finding the planning opportunities that support how fast we're growing. Success looks like a tax function that scales with the business, defensible positions in every jurisdiction, and a team that grows under your leadership. This position is full-time.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build and lead a best-in-class corporate tax function, developing the skillsets of the team around you.
• Own worldwide direct tax compliance, preparing and reviewing all local and Group income tax returns with support from third-party consultants.
• Oversee business-related filings, including property and other local tax returns across relevant jurisdictions.
• Lead indirect tax across all markets, including European VAT, US sales tax, nexus analysis and product taxability.
• Prepare the consolidated quarterly and annual income tax provision, and the IFRIC 23 and ASC 740 control framework behind it.
• Coordinate global transfer pricing documentation, master and local files, and monitor country-by-country reporting thresholds.
• Assist Treasury on cross-border cash remittance and repatriation, and adherence to global transfer pricing policies.
• Drive technology and process improvements, and collaborate with the internal control team to establish an internal control framework.
• Partner with Finance and Legal on new entities and one-off transactions.
• Lead tax audits and inquiries from government authorities, working closely with external advisors.
• Provide ad hoc support on various projects.

WHO YOU ARE

• You're a hands-on leader who delegates well and is just as comfortable doing the work yourself.
• You're self-driven and accountable, bringing a sense of urgency when it's needed and staying organized when several things land at once.
• You're analytical and detail-oriented by instinct, but you can step back and explain the implications to people who don't live in tax.
• You're comfortable holding confidential matters and build genuine relationships across functions and borders.
• You're curious enough to keep learning as the rules keep changing.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

• Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance or a related field.
• CPA, CA or an equivalent professional qualification.
• 10-12 years of international tax experience from a Big 4 firm and/or a multinational corporation.
• Proven ability to design, grow and lead a tax department.
• Proven ability to independently lead and execute multiple projects at once.
• Strong knowledge of international tax, transfer pricing (including OECD BEPS and Pillar Two) and cross-border structuring.
• Solid tax accounting and compliance experience, with familiarity in US GAAP tax accounting (ASC 740) considered an advantage given our US presence.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage and influence executive management and international stakeholders.
• Advanced Excel and accounting/ERP proficiency, experience with tax provisioning software is a plus.

OUR BENEFITS

This is a rare chance to build a global tax function rather than inherit one, with full ownership across more than 20 countries and direct exposure to executive leadership. You'll develop both professionally and personally through our Moneyball career system. On top of a paid pension plan, health insurance, parental leave and additional vacation, you'll enjoy JOE-ified perks like:

• Our global headquarters in the heart of beautiful Copenhagen, where 200+ friendly faces come together.
• Fantastic office facilities, including a fully staffed JOE & THE JUICE bar serving breakfast, daily lunch, refreshing juices and top notch barista coffee.
• A flat hierarchy that values every opinion, creating space for your ideas to thrive.
• A lively monthly social calendar, running club, wine tasting, creative evenings, Friday bars and more.
• Twice a year, a BTC (Behind the Counter) shift in one of our bars, a unique part of the JOE experience.
• Well equipped fitness facilities, including showers and a steam room.
