A leading multinational bank with 50,000 employees worldwide and annual revenue exceeding US$25 billion. The firm works across credit, capital markets, and investment banking with clients ranging from government, to institutional, corporate, and retail clients. The taxation division is responsible for providing tax advisory and planning services as well as tax compliance services for the company worldwide.

  • Ensure internal tax controls are operated effectively via robust governance frameworks to mitigate tax risks.

  • Ensure compliance with OECD/G20 BEPS 2.0 measures, including Pillar 2 requirements for the APAC region.
  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders, including APAC Legal, Finance, and Operations, to address tax-related matters.
  • Provide training and guidance to non-tax specialists in APAC to enhance their understanding of tax regulations.

What experience will you need

  • Australian CA and/or Australian CTA with 5 or more years of industry tax experience or legally qualified with prior experience in accounting, finance or related field.
  • Management of tax planning and compliance issues, including managing cross-border compliance for multinational organisations.
  • Knowledge of Hong Kong and Japanese tax laws and regulations - this is a big bonus.
  • An understanding of equivalent laws, directives and regulations impacting the bank's clients and operations in APAC and our regulators in order to effectively assist with policies and procedures for APAC.
  • Results-oriented, self-motivated, proactive and able to work independently.
  • Focused, thorough, and disciplined in approach.

What you'll get in return

  • Global bank in which you will take regional ownership of APAC.
  • As the sole tax representative in APAC, full trust in your expertise and no micromanagement.
  • A very competitive salary, plus bonus and additional benefits.
  • Hybrid working setup.
