VP Strategy (d/f/m)

VP Strategy (d/f/m) ABOUT TAXFIX Taxfix is Europe's leading digital tax platform, making tax filing simple, fair, and accessible for millions of people. We're scaling fast, building new financial products, and transforming how we work from the inside out. AI is already deeply embedded in how we build and operate. We've moved well past exploration and are now focused on scaling impact, embedding AI into our core workflows, and evolving our organisation to get the most out of it. THE ROLE We're looking for a VP Strategy who is equal parts strategic architect, operator, and AI-native leader. Someone who can help us accelerate what's already working and make the harder, more complex bets pay off. This is one of the most impactful and visible roles at Taxfix. You'll operate at the heart of the company. Working directly with the CEO and partnering across the full Executive Leadership Team to drive the thinking, coordination, and execution that keeps our most critical priorities moving. You'll work across every business unit and lead a team of Senior Strategy Managers. This is not a PowerPoint role. We need someone who can think at 30,000 feet and then roll up their sleeves. WHAT YOU'LL DO 1. OFFICE OF THE CEO - Manage and optimise the CEO's focus, protecting their time and ensuring it's allocated to what matters most. - Act as the key liaison between the CEO and the Executive Leadership Team: facilitating follow-through, surfacing blockers, and driving accountability on critical topics. - Prepare high-quality briefings, strategic documents, and internal and external communications on behalf of the CEO. - Serve as the first point of review for key business issues, triaging what requires CEO attention and what doesn't. - Lead the development of Board narratives and presentation materials: clear, data-driven, and tightly aligned to strategic priorities. 2. GROUP STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT & EXECUTION - Lead the design, coordination, and evolution of Taxfix's group-wide strategic plan; spanning consumer tax filing, self-employed services, and future financial products. - Partner with executive leadership to define strategic priorities, evaluate market opportunities, and build clear execution roadmaps. - Own the strategic planning cycle and connect it to our OKR framework, ensuring alignment across business units and early identification of risk or drift. - Ensure AI strategy is fully integrated into the broader group strategy: continuously sharpening where AI creates the most competitive advantage and where it demands the next wave of organisational adaptation. 3. AI TRANSFORMATION: SCALING & SUSTAINING IMPACT - Taxfix is already on a significant AI transformation journey. This role is not about starting that conversation, it's about accelerating it with rigour, prioritisation, and sustainable execution. - Work alongside the CEO and functional leaders to deepen AI integration across how we build, decide, and operate, moving from early wins to embedded, scalable capability. - Bring strategic discipline to AI prioritisation: ensuring we're doubling down on what's working, retiring what isn't, and making smart bets on the next frontier. - Drive the organisational evolution required to truly operate as an AI-native company — including how we structure teams, develop capability, and measure productivity differently. - Maintain external perspective on AI trends, competitor moves, and emerging best practices; translate signal into strategic action quickly. - Ensure our AI momentum is sustainable: balancing speed with governance, change management, and responsible adoption at scale. 4. OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE & INTERNAL EFFICIENCY - Lead and manage special projects and cross-functional task forces, often on confidential, high-stakes topics. - Analyse, design, and improve business-critical internal workflows, decision-making processes, and management routines. - Monitor KPIs and project milestones; surface risks and roadbloc ...
