The role

We offer you an Ocean of Possibilities. Join our family.

What you'll do

As Tax Manager, you play a key role in shaping, safeguarding and further developing Damen's global tax position. This is not a purely operational role: you work at both a strategic and hands‑on level and have a direct impact on policy, compliance and decision‑making across an international organization.

You will join a close‑knit tax team of four professionals and report directly to the Head of Tax. Due to Damen's global footprint, this role places you at the center of complex international tax matters, while offering significant room for personal and professional growth.

In this role, you take ownership of core direct tax processes and ensure that Damen's Tax Control Framework is robust, future‑proof and well embedded throughout the organization.

You are responsible for key direct tax areas, including:

  • Global transfer pricing
  • Pillar Two implementation
  • Dutch tax accounting and compliance
  • Direct tax advisory for the global Damen organization
  • Tax aspects of M&A activities and corporate restructurings
  • Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders across Finance, Legal and the business
  • Act as a trusted partner to external advisors and tax authorities worldwide
  • Manage medium‑sized tax projects from design through implementation
  • Co‑develop the tax strategy for the coming years together with the Head of Tax
  • Provide hands‑on, day‑to‑day tax advice to support business decisions in a dynamic international environment

You are more than a technical tax specialist - you are a connector, a strategic thinker and a future leader.
