About the team
The Tax Team at Tik Tok helps ensure that our company and all our products are tax compliant throughout different regions and countries. Also, the Tax Team provides support to internal requests and works with multiple different stakeholders to support product and business launches and new features.

About this role
We are seeking a Senior Tax Specialist, based in Mexico City, who can move fast and learn quickly to help establish and scale new processes for our Mexican portfolio, particularly on financial technology products.

This role will have a strong focus on Mexico tax compliance and operational tax matters related to financial services and payment-related products, including withholding taxes, VAT, invoicing, fund flows, and regulatory reporting obligations applicable to digital platforms and fintech models. This role requires a hands on, operational tax mindset, with the ability to move quickly, manage ambiguity, and support the scale-up of new products in a highly regulated environment. Candidates should have a demonstrated ability to work on a global team with cross-border colleagues and cross-functional teams. Applicants should have a track record of being able to assist with the management and ownership of the end-to-end operational processes for the subject areas.
