Bumble is the Love Company and living that mission means building trust through how we operate, report, and make decisions. The Tax team helps protect that trust by ensuring our income tax reporting is accurate, our controls are strong, and our approach to controversy is thoughtful and consistent.
Bumble is seeking an experienced, analytical, and forward-thinking tax leader to join the company as Director, Tax Reporting & Controversy. This role will provide leadership over global income tax reporting and U.S. compliance oversight, while also driving tax controversy management, internal restructuring support, and cross-functional tax governance initiatives.
The Director will execute within the strategic framework established by the VP of Tax & Treasury and will lead day-to-day oversight of reporting, controversy, and restructuring-related tax matters.
The Director will serve as the day-to-day internal owner of consolidated global income tax reporting under ASC 740 and SEC reporting requirements, integrating U.S. and international inputs, while partnering closely with managed service providers and external advisors to ensure compliance, audit readiness, and strong internal controls. In addition, the role will support internal restructurings, legal entity rationalization initiatives, capital structure planning, and other strategic finance projects as business needs evolve.
The Director will play a key role in advancing technology-enabled tax operations by leveraging AI-driven and automation capabilities within our managed services framework to enhance efficiency, transparency, and control.
This role will be based remotely and will report to the VP of Tax & Treasury. The Director will work closely with Finance, Legal, Treasury, Accounting, and external service providers in a managed services environment.
