• Hold a master’s degree in accounting, tax, finance, or a related field.
• Have at least 3 years of relevant experience in-house or in consulting (tax/audit).
• Possess strong knowledge of Danish corporate income tax compliance, tax accounting, and preferably international corporate taxation.
• Are fluent in Danish and English, both written and spoken.
• Enjoy using digital tools/systems and are willing to learn more; experience with SAP or other financial reporting systems is a plus.

We're looking for team players with excellent communication skills. Your curiosity and growth mindset will promote continuous learning and questioning of the status quo. A structured approach to tasks ensures effective prioritisation and attention to detail in a dynamic environment.

What do we offer?
Alongside providing an engaging professional tax career opportunity, we place a strong emphasis on mental health, flexible working arrangements, and work-life balance, with the option to work from home. Additionally, you will be part of a global organisation with colleagues from various regions around the world.
