The opportunity
With the continuing and rapid development of tax technology solutions and in particular Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions, it is necessary to enhance our operational models to achieve success in the future. In preparation for the future, EY Tax and Law have created a new “Centre of Excellence” (CoE) to support SaaS solutions throughout their lifecycle.
The objectives of the SaaS CoE are twofold:
* Operational management of Tax and Law SaaS solutions
* Sales enablement and support to drive the market success of these solutions
The SaaS CoE currently supports Tax and Lax solutions Global VAT Reporting Tool (GVRT), Global Tax E-invoicing Solution (GTES), Mandatory Disclosure Regime (MDR) Web, EY GloBE Engine (Pillar II/BEPS) and Data Permissions Navigator (DPN), and this number of solutions is expected to grow rapidly.
In joining the SaaS CoE, you will have an exciting opportunity to contribute to the ongoing success of this new business unit, becoming deeply embedded in the operational management of the SaaS CoE and thus ensuring the smooth running of the technology solutions that it supports.

As part of our new Global SaaS business, you will work with our Solution Owner, as well as Product, Technical and Functional Leads to develop GTES from proof-of-concept to production.
The Indirect Tax Lead for GTES will contribute to the development, implementation and tax strategy underpinning GTES. This role will be instrumental in ensuring that GTES meets regulatory requirements, enhances tax compliance, and delivers value to our clients.

* Supporting adherence to key EY processes, including the Tax Technology Approval Roadmap (TTAR), as well as other Tax Quality (TQ) and Independence requirements
* Collaborating with cross-functional teams, including technology, product management, and client services, to ensure GTES meets client needs and tax regulatory requirements
* Building and maintaining relationships with key external stakeholders, including clients, regulatory bodies, and industry association.
