As Indirect Tax Manager, you will be central to Legora's international expansion, translating complex cross-border tax issues into clear, actionable compliance strategies. You will oversee VAT/GST compliance across multiple EU and non-EU jurisdictions, ensuring audit-ready documentation and high-quality, defensible records. You'll serve as a primary advisor on VAT consequences for international growth, market entries, product launches, and corporate reorganizations, with particular focus on digital services, intercompany dealings, and intricate transaction flows.

- Support tax reporting functions and strengthen the organization's tax control framework

REQUIREMENTS:
- 5+ years of progressive professional experience in VAT or indirect tax
- Experience from a technology and/or scale-up start-up environment
