We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced International Tax Manager to join our growing finance team in Ireland.

The role will primarily focus on Canada and U.S. tax compliance, planning, and reporting, while coordinating with our local UK and European consultants for European support.

• Partner with local advisors in Spain, the U.K., and Ireland to manage compliance and reporting for existing entities.
• Support tax due diligence for new acquisitions, primarily in North America, with occasional European oversight.
• Provide tax input for M&A, integrations, and corporate restructuring activities.

• Research and interpret Canadian, U.S., and international tax legislation to identify implications for Valsoft.

• Professional accounting or tax qualification (e.g., CPA, CA, AITI/CTA, ACA, ACCA, or equivalent).
• 5+ years of post qualification experience in corporate or international tax, with exposure to Canadian and/or U.S. tax matters.
• Solid understanding of corporate tax, transfer pricing, and tax accounting.
• Experience with tax compliance, provision processes, and M&A tax due diligence.
• Excellent analytical, organizational, and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently across multiple jurisdictions and collaborate effectively with diverse teams.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a global software group where your expertise in Tax will have a direct impact on strategic decisions and cross border growth. You'll be part of a collaborative, fast paced environment where your insights are valued, and your career can thrive.
