Who are we?
UpGuard’s mission is to protect the world’s data. We obsessively seek out elegant, robust ways to enable our customers to find, acknowledge, and remediate cyber risk. With UpGuard, organizations leverage our security expertise and software to automate what was once laborious, spreadsheet-driven processes–whether it's monitoring the attack surface of hundreds of vendors or assessing the security of their own infrastructure. UpGuard is used by some of the world’s largest, fastest-growing, and most innovative companies. 

As part of the global Operations function, UpGuard’s Finance team's mission is to deliver timely and accurate financial reporting to aid management in decision-making and ensure that the company has adequate internal controls to ensure that financial reporting can be relied on by internal and external users. We execute this by creating a budget that supports the short and long term vision of the company, reducing operating expenses utilizing financial data and automation, and providing accurate financial results to business users to enable them to make the best decisions.

We’re looking for a Tax Director who can continue to shape our global tax function and make a real impact.

You’ll oversee tax strategy, lead R&D tax credit claims, and collaborate closely with teams across the business. If you thrive on ownership, enjoy solving complex challenges, and want to play a key role in our growth journey, this role is for you.
