Accounting
💰 Salary Not shared
📊 Market 3,750 EUR–5,000 EUR/mo (45,000 EUR–60,000 EUR/yr)
About the Company
We are delighted to be working with a large, well-established multinational manufacturer who are growing their Indirect Tax team here in Cork. This group is present in over 50 countries and their products end up behind some of the best-known consumer and industrial brands in the world. Their Cork shared service centre plays a genuinely central role in the group's global finance operations, and it's an exciting time to join as they push further into digitalisation and modernise how the function works.
About the Role
The VAT Accountant will join a small, close-knit and experienced team. It's a broad, business-facing role with VAT and indirect tax at its core, alongside ledger management, balance sheet and system reconciliations, period-end close, and ERP troubleshooting. It's a great fit for someone who wants their VAT expertise to plug into the wider business.
Responsibilities
- ● Support the VAT and indirect tax compliance process across multiple jurisdictions
- ● Contribute to month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close, including reconciliations and reporting
- ● Help resolve day-to-day system and process issues, working closely with IT and other teams
- ● Build strong working relationships with auditors and tax authorities as a key point of contact
- ● Get involved in improving processes and controls as the function continues to evolve
Requirements
- ● Qualified accountant or tax consultant
- ● Ideally some multinational experience or hands on experience from an accounting firm
- ● Comfortable with ERP systems (Oracle Financials or similar); strong Excel skills is an advantage
- ● A "solutionist" mindset - curious, keen to connect the dots rather than just process transactions
- ● Initiative and enthusiasm, with genuine interest in getting closer to the wider business
- ● If this sounds like a fit, I'd love to hear from you - contact me, [email protected].
