VAT Specialist - Poland
_Hybrid · Permanent · Global Market Leader · Greenfield Finance Team_
Build something from the ground up.
Cielo is partnering, on a confidential basis, with a global market leader to hire VAT Specialists into a brand-new team in Poland. This is a rare chance to join at the foundation of a major Finance transformation, shaping how indirect tax is managed across multiple European markets rather than inheriting someone else's process.
If you enjoy the technical depth of VAT _and_ the satisfaction of building, standardizing, and automating as you go, this one's worth a look.
What you'll be doing
* Owning VAT compliance and reporting across multiple EU markets — preparing and reviewing VAT returns, EC Sales Lists, and Intrastat, alongside local filings (including Poland's JPK / SAF-T)
* Analysing and reconciling VAT and accounting data, and resolving discrepancies before they become audit findings
* Supporting tax audits and responding to authority queries with clean, well-documented positions
* Partnering closely with Finance, Tax, and business stakeholders across the group
* Helping drive process improvement, standardisation, and automation as the function scales — including readiness for e-invoicing and digital reporting mandates (e.g. KSeF in Poland and the EU's ViDA agenda)
What you'll bring
* Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Tax, or a related field; a professional qualification (CPA, ACCA, CTA or local equivalent) is a plus
* 2–10 years in General Accounting, Audit, Tax, or VAT / Indirect Tax, with hands-on VAT compliance and reporting experience
* Multi-country / multi-market VAT experience is essential — you're comfortable working across jurisdictions
* Solid understanding of VAT regulations and indirect tax principles, with strong reconciliation skills
* Confident in Excel and an ERP environment (SAP is a strong advantage); exposure to tax engines or reporting tools (e.g. SAP DRC, OneSource, Vertex) is welcome
* Fluent English; another European language is a bonus
* Sharp eye for detail and a genuine appetite for improving how things are done
Why it's a great move
A greenfield team, real scope to influence process and technology, exposure to pan-European VAT, and a front-row seat to a large-scale Finance transformation, all from one of Europe's most dynamic business-services hubs.
