Global Tax Director, Copenhagen

Join Vivino, the world's leading community-driven e-commerce platform, powered by personalization, with over 75 million community members. You will oversee all global tax matters, establish efficient processes, manage risk, and support cross-functional teams. This hands-on role is ideal for a senior professional looking to own the tax function in a dynamic, international consumer-tech environment.

As Global Tax Director, you will work directly with senior leaders on high-impact matters across geographies, bringing real influence and variety to your role. You won't just be maintaining the status quo; you will be the architect of our future setup. Success in this role will be defined by your ability to stabilize and optimize our global footprint. Your focus will broaden to a general tax review across all our geographies, identifying risks and establishing a robust mitigation plan.

This includes organizing our US Sales Tax and registration processes.

• Drive the global tax strategy and contribute to enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, ensuring our tax planning supports our commercial goals.

• Facilitate and manage the preparation of company tax returns and the accurate, timely filing of all tax forms. You will plan and own the global tax calendar, coordinating with third-party teams worldwide to ensure seamless execution.

• Manage sales tax collection and remittance in the US using Avalara, and oversee VAT regulation and reporting across the E.U. and APAC.

• Manage relationships with third-party tax partners globally and collaborate closely with internal teams—primarily Controlling & Legal—to educate the business on tax matters.

You are highly structured in your planning, capable of bringing rigorous organization to our global compliance calendar. Yet, you remain flexible enough to pivot quickly when business priorities shift in our fast-paced scale-up environment. You are impactful in your delivery, able to command the room and influence senior stakeholders with clear, strategic insights rather than just technical jargon. Finally, you are sociable and collaborative.
