Tax Technology & Transformation Manager

Purpose The TTT Manager is an execution-focused, client-facing delivery role responsible for translating tax and compliance requirements into working technology-enabled solutions across Corporate Tax, Indirect Tax, Accounting Compliance & Reporting, eInvoicing, and AI-enabled use cases. The role partners closely with client Tax, Finance, and Technology teams to design, build, test, and deploy solutions that improve accuracy, timeliness, transparency, and compliance outcomes through strong data, analytics, and implementation discipline. 2. Expected outcomes from the role (measurable “what success looks like”) A. Corporate Tax & Compliance outcomes § Delivers defined and implemented improvements to tax compliance and reporting processes (requirements, data, outputs), resulting in fewer errors and faster cycle times (consulting execution expectation). § Produces reconciled, traceable datasets and validation routines that increase confidence in tax calculations and reporting outputs. B. Indirect Tax & eInvoicing outcomes § Supports delivery of indirect tax reporting improvements including data readiness, exception handling, and reporting governance. § Where in scope, contributes to implementation of eInvoicing capabilities and associated data-driven VAT reporting frameworks, ensuring operational fit and data integrity. C. Analytics & reporting outcomes (tools-driven) § Builds robust analytics outputs (dashboards, exception reports, reconciliations) using SQL and visualization tools, enabling continuous monitoring and faster issue resolution. § Produces reusable analytics workflows (e.g., data preparation and dashboarding) using tools such as Alteryx and Tableau (or equivalent), with clear documentation and repeatable logic. D. AI outcomes (practical value + governance) § Supports delivery of AI/GenAI-enabled use cases by preparing data inputs, documenting requirements, validating outputs against acceptance criteria, and supporting user adoption activities. E. Delivery execution outcomes § Delivers assigned modules/workstreams on time and within scope with strong testing discipline, defect management, and high-quality client-ready documentation (consulting execution expectation). 3. Expected behaviours (how the role operates) A. Client collaboration and co-creation (mandatory) § Works side-by-side with client teams to clarify requirements, validate scenarios, and co-design practical solutions; communicates progress clearly and proactively (consulting execution expectation). B. Ownership and reliability § Takes end-to-end ownership of assigned deliverables (requirements packs, mappings, dashboards, test evidence) and drives tasks to completion with minimal supervision (execution expectation). C. Quality-first delivery mindset § Demonstrates strong attention to detail, documentation discipline, and evidence-based delivery—ensuring outputs are accurate, repeatable, and audit-ready (execution expectation). D. Continuous improvement § Reuses assets, automates repetitive analysis through modern analytics workflows (not RPA), and improves delivery efficiency while maintaining quality (execution expectation). E. Professional integrity & secure delivery (mandatory) § Ensures confidentiality and secure client data handling; follows required engagement quality practices (consulting expectation). F. Mobility (mandatory) § Willingness to travel across MENA (and occasionally beyond) based on engagement needs (standard consulting expectation). Required § Typically 10+ years experience in tax technology, tax transformation delivery, compliance/reporting transformation, data & analytics delivery, or management consulting (industry standard). § Demonstrated execution experience delivering technology-enabled outcomes with strong documentation and testing discipline (execution expectation). § Hands-on capability with SQL plus at least one analytics workflow and visualization tool—preferably Alteryx and Tableau—to deliver reconciliations, dashboards, and reporting outputs. § Experience supporting SDLC activities (requirements/user stories, testing, defect triage, release readiness) for software-enabled solutions. Preferred § Experience supporting eInvoicing and VAT digital reporting initiatives, including data-driven VAT reporting frameworks. § Exposure to AI/GenAI-enabled delivery support activities (validation, adoption support, quality controls). § Relevant credentials aligned to role focus (tax/accounting qualification, data/analytics certifications, agile/testing credentials) (recommendation).
