Tax Auditor

The Tax Agency is seeking tax auditors for the control of companies, self-employed individuals, and oversight of the black economy and money laundering. The workplace is in Nuuk or Aalborg. You will work with data and accounts, and there will be travel activities in Greenland. Qualifications in tax law or accounting are an advantage.

IN Efforts and Control, we are looking for 3 new colleagues for the control of companies, self-employed entrepreneurs, and the control of the black economy and money laundering.

The department currently consists of 14 employees, of whom 5 handle administrative and control tasks related to companies and transfer pricing, 8 employees handle administrative and control tasks related to money laundering and self-employed individuals, and 2 handle management, governance, and system-related tasks. The department has employees in Nuuk, Aalborg, and Copenhagen.

Efforts and Control manage the administration and control of self-employed individuals and companies in Greenland, including

  • Tasks related to the subjective tax liability, particularly control tasks regarding the companies' potential limited tax liability to Greenland and double taxation.
  • Objective tax liability and deductions, including specifically the correct income earner and the correct cost bearer.
  • Control of commercial activities, with the aim of assessing tax liability for businesses and employees in Greenland.
  • Special control cases related to financial crime and money laundering.
  • Guidance for companies and entrepreneurs.
  • Administrative and control tasks associated with tax returns and assessments thereof.

Depending on the nature of the inspections, there will be a number of outgoing visits, including travel activities in Greenland.

The control will involve activities in the form of decisions and case presentations, which is why it is important that you can work independently and have good communication skills in writing and speaking, preferably also in English.

You should also expect to take part in the administrative tasks that ensure both the tax return and the assessment period proceed as planned.

Qualifications and competence

  • Tax law or accounting expertise and experience from a similar position is a great advantage, but if you are a recent graduate with a degree such as a professional bachelor's, HD, or a master's in economics, accounting, auditing, law, or similar education, we also look forward to hearing from you.
  • You may also have experience from another public authority where you handle legislation and provide oral and written responses.
  • You are good at using the Microsoft suite and quick to familiarize yourself with new systems.
  • You seek collaboration with others, are solution-oriented, and can both function in a work community and immerse yourself to work independently. You are committed and responsible, ensuring that tasks are advanced and completed.
  • Knowledge of the area, legislation, and understanding of accounting will be an advantage.
  • Varied tasks that you will have great opportunities to influence.
  • Large and interdisciplinary knowledge due to the nature of the tasks.
  • Good colleagues with a good spirit of collaboration.
  • An exciting job with personal and professional development.
  • Travel activity in connection with special controls along the entire coast.
  • A good insight into the major infrastructure projects in Greenland.

You will have the opportunity to:

  • Make a real difference for Greenland's social economy through better tax collection and control.
  • This is the job for you if you are motivated by responsibility, complexity, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact. For a candidate with the right skills, employment can be offered as a special consultant, chief consultant, or senior advisor.
