Director, Tax

About the Role

We're hiring a Director of Tax to build and own Fetch's tax function end to end

across direct and indirect tax. You'll establish the strategy, processes,

controls, and operating model needed to manage our federal, state, and local tax

obligations while building infrastructure that can scale with the business.

This role is equal parts builder and operator. You'll own the day-to-day tax

agenda while creating a function that does not formally exist today, bringing

structure, visibility, and rigor to work that has historically been managed

across internal teams and external advisors.

You'll report to the Chief Accounting Officer and partner closely with

Accounting, FinOps, Strategic Finance, Legal, Financial Systems, and business

leaders across the company.

This is a full-time role that can be held from one of our US offices or remotely

in the United States.
