Senior Tax Analyst (LatAm Only)

At R2, we believe that small and medium businesses are the productive engine of society. Small and medium businesses (SMBs) make up over 90% of companies in Latin America, yet they face a trillion-dollar credit gap. Our mission is to unlock SMBs’ potential by providing financial solutions that are tailored to their needs. We are reimagining the financial infrastructure of Latin America, where SMBs financial needs are satisfied without ever having to go to a bank.

R2 enables platforms in Latin America to embed financial services that SMBs can then leverage (starting with revenue-based financing). We are a tight-knit team coming from organizations such as Google, Amazon, Nubank, Uber, Capital One, Mercado Libre, Globant, and J.P. Morgan. We are entering a new phase of growth following a strategic investment from Ant International, focused on rapidly expanding our partner footprint, strengthening our credit and underwriting capabilities, and scaling our operations across multiple markets.

As a Senior Tax Analyst (IC3) you will play a key role in improving tax compliance and efficiency across R2’s operations in Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Cayman and the USA, while supporting the company’s growth into new products and markets.

What you’ll work on

• Review monthly tax compliance obligations in Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Chile and Mexico (VAT, income tax and withholding taxes, among others), working with our BPO providers to adjust procedures and improve timing, accuracy and documentation.
• Own the regional tax obligations calendar and tax payments control, ensuring deliverables are on time and that tax files and supporting documents are organized by tax type and country.
• Monitor the tax authorities’ electronic mailboxes in all countries, analyzing notices and information requests and coordinating timely responses with the Tax Manager and external advisors.
• Configure and optimize the tax setup of our ERP as a whole, including electronic invoicing, withholding tax documents and other tax supporting documents, becoming the owner of these processes from a tax perspective.
• Review the group’s transfer pricing policies and calculations, ensuring adherence to the arm’s length principle and that documentation and filings are complete and timely.
• Ensure the correct tax treatment under double tax treaties for cross-border payments, including applicable withholding tax rates, tax residence certificates and supporting documentation.
• Calculate and control thin capitalization and interest limitation (earnings stripping) rules across the group, assessing their impact on the deductibility of financing costs.
• Work on tax projections for the group, estimating the tax impact of the business plan to support budgeting and decision-making.
• Support the tax strategy for new products and market expansion, and drive tax planning and compliance projects with high impact on the company’s goals, partnering with Legal, Finance and Growth teams.
