Senior Consultant

Tax Technology & Transformation (TTT)

EY MENA

1. Purpose

The TTT Senior Consultant is an execution-focused, client-facing role responsible for delivering key work products on tax transformation and tax technology engagements across Corporate Tax, Indirect Tax, and Accounting Compliance & Reporting. The role works closely with client Tax/Finance/Technology stakeholders to translate requirements into practical solutions—building data preparation workflows, reconciliations, dashboards, testing artifacts, and implementation documentation that enable measurable compliance and reporting outcomes.

The Senior Consultant operates as a core delivery contributor, independently owning assigned components end-to-end (under Manager/Senior Manager direction) and ensuring outputs are accurate, repeatable, and client-ready.

1. Expected outcomes from the role (measurable “what success looks like”)

1. Tax & compliance delivery outcomes

• Produces high-quality deliverables (requirements notes, data mappings, reconciliations, reporting outputs, test evidence) with minimal rework and clear traceability from input data to reported results.
• Supports improvements in data reliability for tax and compliance reporting through structured validation and reconciliation routines consistent with “data improvement and information access” outcomes.

1. Indirect Tax & eInvoicing outcomes

• Supports indirect tax reporting improvements through data readiness, validations, and exception handling routines.
• Where in scope, supports eInvoicing delivery and related reporting outputs, including data-driven VAT reporting frameworks, by assisting with requirements, data validation, testing, and reporting checks.

• Ability to execute data quality checks, reconciliations, and exception monitoring rules; explain results clearly to client stakeholders.

1. eInvoicing & digital indirect tax reporting (preferred but valuable)

• Understanding of eInvoicing delivery components (data fields, process impacts, integration touchpoints) and ability to support VAT reporting framework validation and testing where required.

1. AI/GenAI delivery support (required awareness)

• Ability to support AI/GenAI initiatives by preparing validation datasets, defining acceptance criteria, testing output quality, and supporting adoption activities.
