Senior Accountant – Taxation


Star Services
Senior Accountant – Taxation
Alright, here’s the deal—Star Services is on the hunt for a Senior Accountant who’s got tax stuff down cold. If you know your way around UAE Corporate Tax and VAT (like, really know it, not just “I read about it once on LinkedIn”), this gig might have your name on it. You’ll be diving headfirst into financial reporting and compliance, so if spreadsheets make your eyes sparkle, keep reading.
What You Need:
– Bachelor’s in Accounting or Commerce. Basically, you need the paper.
– Got a CPA, ACCA, or something similar? Good, ‘cause they want that, too.
Experience:
– 4-6 years actually doing tax and finance work in the UAE or GCC. Not “I watched someone do it”—you need to have rolled up your sleeves.
Tax Geek Stuff:
– You should eat, sleep, and breathe UAE Corporate Tax and VAT laws. Filing, compliance, reporting—the whole nine yards.
Money Talk:
– Know your IFRS standards like the back of your hand. Been through audits? Even better. You’ll be the one prepping all those tax-friendly financial statements.
Nerdy Skills:
– You should be pretty slick with ERPs, data wrangling, and Excel (pivot tables don’t scare you).
– Not afraid of auditors, consultants, or random people from other teams popping up in your inbox.
The To-Do List:
– Get those VAT and Corporate Tax returns filed on time, every time. No excuses.
– Keep the company on the straight and narrow with UAE tax rules.
– Jump in on tax planning, audits, and assessments—bring your A-game.
– Draw up all the financial statements (monthly, quarterly, annual), and make sure they’re IFRS-proof.
– Work with auditors—internal, external, you name it—to make audits less painful for everyone.
– Keep your paperwork and backup docs neat, tidy, and ready for inspection.
– If you see a way to make things run smoother, speak up and help make it happen.
If you like tax work, can handle a little chaos, and want to actually matter to a company, this one’s worth a shot.
