About the Role
Our team’s mission is to manage and oversee Uber’s tax matters across EMEA, ensuring compliance while supporting business growth in a fast-paced environment. This role serves as the primary tax lead for Türkiye, but because we move at Uber speed, you will also be a key player in supporting the broader EMEA region.
We are looking for a high-energy professional with a growth mindset who thrives in a flexible environment. At Uber, we don’t just manage tax; we navigate change. You should be someone who is comfortable with shifting scopes and is eager to expand their expertise beyond a single jurisdiction.
You will be based in our Amsterdam HQ, reporting to a Senior Tax Manager who is also based in Amsterdam (along with the rest of the EMEA tax team).

- Audit Defense: Coordinate and lead responses to tax audits and queries from the Turkish Tax Authority and other regional bodies, managing external advisors and internal stakeholders.
- Policy & Strategy: Monitor changes in Turkish and European tax legislation (such as Pillar Two) and assess their impact on Uber’s platform model.
- Cross-Functional Partnership: Collaborate with Legal, Policy, and Ops to assess tax implications for new business initiatives and product launches.
- Innovation: Proactively explore AI opportunities that can benefit the Tax team and drive efficiency across tax advisory workflows, risk assessment, and business decision support.
- EMEA support: Provide cross-border tax advisory and support for other EMEA countries, collaborating on regional projects as business needs evolve.
What You'll Need
- Education: At least a bachelor's degree in law, accounting, finance or a related discipline; relevant professional qualification or LLM in Tax would be an advantage.
- Experience: 6+ years of relevant professional experience in a law firm, Big 4, or industry. Experience with Turkish tax law would be a plus.
- Communication: Excellent English and Turkish (written and verbal communication skills).
- Agility: A proven track record of being flexible and adaptable; you do not shy away from changes in scope or new challenges.
- Technical mastery: Strong expertise in managing both direct (CIT) and indirect tax (VAT/DST) matters, specifically within the Turkish jurisdiction.
Preferred Qualifications
- Tech Obsessed: Experience or a strong interest in using AI and technology to drive efficiency in tax operations. Previous in-house experience working in a tech or platform-based business with hands-on experience in tax advisory.
- Regional Experience: While the focus is Türkiye, previous experience working with other EMEA countries is helpful.
