About the team

SumUp's Tax function sits at the heart of a business across more than 35 entities in Europe and APAC. The Tax team is responsible for corporate income tax and transfer pricing across the group, and is actively building the infrastructure to match the scale and scrutiny that comes with that responsibility.

This is a build role. As Tax Process and Operations Lead, you'll own the design and implementation of SumUp's ETR, provisioning and tax financial reporting framework from the ground up, creating the methodology, models, controls, and tooling that underpin how tax positions flow into financial statements, management reporting, and cash forecasting. You’ll lead the end-to-end design of how tax technical positions are translated into financial reporting, management reporting, and cash forecasting outputs - partnering closely with Tax, Accounting, Controlling, FP&A, and Treasury to define the processes, controls, data flows, and automation requirements that make this scalable across the group. If you're energised by building something that genuinely matters, and doing it in a live, deadline-driven environment - this role is for you.

What you'll do

Design and implement the end-to-end framework for tax accounting and financial reporting, including ETR calculation, tax provision methodology, cash tax forecasting, and Pillar 2 / GloBE entity-level calculation framework

Act as the primary bridge between the Tax team's technical positions and the wider finance organisation, ensuring methodology is clearly documented, understood, and consistently applied

Work closely with Tax Technology and SAP specialists to build structured, automated data pipelines that replace manual processes, using tools such as SAC, Alteryx, and AI-supported workflows

Support the controlling team in reviewing tax notes in financial statements, uncertain tax position memos, and tax provisions, ensur
