Job description

Overview:

For our offices in Liège, we are currently looking for a Junior Tax Consultant specialising in VAT compliance. 

Join the BDO family, a worldwide consulting firm where you can bring your own personality to your job! We help organisations grow sustainably with our expertise in audit & assurance, tax & legal, advisory and accountancy.

At BDO, you are not just a number. Your wellbeing and development are just as important to us as the personal, hands-on advice and pragmatic solutions we offer our clients. Because as you grow, so do we and so do our clients. That is why our slogan is 'Let's Grow Together'!

What will you be doing?:

After an orientation and training period, you will join a team that provides confidential advice to the business manager and financial management on aspects of their policies relating to VAT compliance.

Your job includes the following duties:

  • You will (eventually) advise clients on VAT compliance, both in a national and international context
  • Consulting with our organisation's specialists in subfields of taxation to provide clients with optimal advice
  • Working on most files in close collaboration with company auditors and accountants
  • Contributing to the development and optimisation of existing client relationships
  • Offering business managers and financial management pragmatic advice on the tax and legal aspects of their policies, taking a proactive, highly engaged approach.

As a BDO tax consultant, you keep close track of all the latest tax news to be able to ensure optimally efficient operations at all times. Thanks to our BDO Academy, you can continue developing your professional knowledge, supplemented by external training opportunities.

What do you bring to the table?:
  • You have a Master’s degree experience with preferably a first experience in VAT.
  • You have excellent knowledge of French and also have some proficiency in English.
  • You insist on accuracy and love diving into all the details.
  • You are happy to take the initiative and present new ideas, but also receptive to your colleagues' point of view. You make sure to keep them informed; team spirit is the way to go for you.
  • Juggling multiple deadlines during busy VAT return periods or dealing with several different files on the same day? You mastered the required flexibility long ago.
  • Stress? What’s that? You are good at setting priorities and delivering work on time is not a problem for you.
  • You always stay up to date on the latest accounting developments. You enjoy learning new things and attending seminars, conferences and events.
What do we bring to the table? :
  • Start in a general position and discover which types of clients, duties or specialisations suit you best. After the starters days, you will build your own career along with your other new colleagues. 
  • Take on increasing amounts of responsibility as the rest of your team stands by, ready to support you. 
  • BDO Academy’s extensive list of training courses helps you grow both personally and professionally. 
  • Sample projects from other Business Practices through our “flex pool”. 
  • Options to work from home or from the nearest office, for example, and flexible working hours. 
  • A competitive salary package with many attractive benefits such as a net expense allowance, company car, mobile phone plan, hospitalisation insurance, etc. 
  • Work at a company with an integrated sustainability policy on issues such as climate impact and equality, diversity and inclusion, which actively contributes to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
