London, United Kingdom Amazon TA Full time

Amazon’s vision is to be Earth's most customer centric company.

Amazon is seeking a Manager to join our Indirect Tax Compliance Automation team. This team sits within Amazon’s Indirect Tax Compliance organization. We are looking for someone to help transform the way we do compliance at Amazon by deconstructing existing processes, analyzing them, optimizing, automating and rebuilding them, maximizing the use of technology.

Maximizing the use of technology solutions is essential to meet the challenge of indirect tax compliance and that is where the Indirect Tax Compliance Automation Team comes into play. We are a team within the compliance organization responsible for operationalizing the use of technology to the max. Rolling this out and enabling our compliance colleagues to successfully use them.

Key job responsibilities
The role will be responsible for :
- Driving the analyzing of compliance teams needs and designing of new compliance tools and processes.
- Identifying and articulating the technology needs, and constructing the tax technology solutions.

You need to understand how technology can be used to improve compliance processes and eliminate inefficiency.

Ideally your experience will mean you will have:
- One foot firmly planted in indirect tax compliance and the other in the tax technology solutions space. - You will need the ability to think-big and and have chance to input into the long term global strategy. - Have a strong bias for action and the ability to deliver results driving solutions over the line.
