The posting

Join our dynamic team as a VAT Manager and take the next step in your career.

As a VAT Manager, you will be (co-)responsible for delivering a broad range of VAT advisory services to our international and Belgian clients.

With a proactive mindset, you will act as a trusted advisor, supporting clients at key moments (such as changes in activities or business model, expansion into new sales channels or markets, and mergers and acquisitions), as well as in their day-to-day operations.

You will also contribute to improving their internal processes, including e-invoicing and the automation of VAT reporting (implementation and review of tax codes). In addition, you will support the further automation of our VAT compliance services.

What does a VAT Manager do at Grant Thornton?

  • As a ‘trusted advisor’ you will be the first point of contact for our national and international clients;
  • You will assist our clients with all Belgian VAT matters and take on a coordinating role in aligning non-Belgian VAT aspects with our local VAT colleagues within the GT network.
  • Within the scope of specific VAT projects, you will perform analyses aimed at VAT optimization, provide guidance to clients on implementation (such as setting up ERP codes), and conduct VAT health checks.
  • You will deliver VAT technical training sessions to clients tailored to the needs of their accounting and invoicing departments.
  • During VAT audits, you will act as the primary point of contact for the VAT authorities and guide clients through the entire audit process, including support with potential VAT adjustments and requests for penalty reductions.
  • Collaboration with team members and colleagues from other departments is an integral part of your daily responsibilities.

Are you the missing piece of our puzzle?

  • You hold a Master’s degree in Economics or Law (Tax Law), or a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting/Tax, or you can demonstrate relevant education and/or practical work experience by other means.
  • Additionally, you have at least 5 years of relevant experience in VAT compliance, preferably in an international environment or within the consulting sector.
  • You are proactive in identifying opportunities and mitigating VAT risks.
  • You are a flexible and enthusiastic team player.
  • You possess excellent analytical and solution-oriented skills.
  • You have a results-driven and entrepreneurial mindset, combined with high attention to detail and a strong sense of responsibility.
  • You have solid practical knowledge of Excel, Word, and PowerPoint; experience with Power BI is a plus.
  • You have strong communication skills in Dutch and English. Knowledge of any other European language is an additional asset.

In short, you convey our CLEARR values. CLEARR stands for collaboration, leadership, excellence, agility, respect and responsibility. We're 'clear' on that, right?

What can we offer you?

Here at Grant Thornton, you will be among some of the best colleagues and enjoy an awesome work environment. And it's no coincidence that we proudly carry the Great Place to Work certification! But that's not all, of course! We also offer:

  • An attractive salary package with additional holidays, a phone subscription, insurance, a company car, and a flex income plan that allows you to customize part of your employment benefits according to your preferences, such as a bike plan, electronic devices, or other advantages that align with your personal choices.
  • You have flexible working hours and may also work from home. The how and what will be discussed with your team and clients.
  • You will have the opportunity to develop yourself at your own pace through: At least 40 training hours a year to brush up on your professional knowledge and soft skills. A learning environment with a wide variety of clients, sectors and topics that you will come into contact with. Experienced colleagues who are always ready to share their knowledge and good advice with you in our open working environment. A multidisciplinary working environment: enriching collaborations guaranteed! Would you like to obtain additional certificates and/or diplomas?

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
