Tax Manager

We are an Australian listed software business and our Tax Strategy &
Advisory team is responsible for supporting the business to grow. They are at the front end of a number of key business decisions and are often the ones responsible for driving business change. They have a number of really exciting and value-add projects that require another dedicated team member to come on board to help with.

We are seeking a global payroll tax manager to join the business. You will initially be responsible for ensuring compliance with payroll tax laws, regulations and policies globally. Your responsibilities will also extend to indirect tax and you will own and drive key projects that have a real impact on the business.

You will be working in a fast paced, exciting and challenging environment. WiseTech Global is a rapidly growing software business with an opportunity to take on many exciting projects.

You will be working with creative individuals who have fun and don't take themselves too seriously.

This is a genuine role where you will be able to add value in a short period of time.

You will be a team player who possesses the ability to communicate complicated tax information to non-tax people in an easy to understand way, comfortable working in a fast paced environment and can work independently and move projects forward, but know when to seek guidance and advice from team members.
