Compliance & Tax:

• Ensure compliance with Czech tax regulations and statutory filings.
• Liaise with tax advisors, auditors, and regulatory authorities.
• Oversee intercompany transactions and transfer pricing documentation.
• Provide accurate financial data to support group tax reporting.

Cash Flow & Working Capital:

• Manage cash flow and working capital optimization.

• Provide visibility and reporting on liquidity and financial stability.

Leadership & Transformation

• Lead and develop the local finance team.
• Align local finance operations with global finance standards and processes.

• Proven leadership experience with the ability to operate hands-on when needed.
• Strong communication skills and fluency in English.
• Professional qualification (ACCA, CPA, CIMA) is an advantage.
• Experience in IT services, technology, or Big 4 environment is a plus.

What We Offer:

• A senior leadership role within a stable, international technology company.
