What- the Role:

The E‑Invoicing Business Analyst plays a critical role in the design, implementation, and ongoing management of electronic invoicing (e‑invoicing) solutions to ensure compliance with global indirect tax and regulatory requirements. This role acts as a bridge between tax, finance, IT, vendors, and external authorities to translate business and compliance needs into scalable system and process solutions.
The ideal candidate combines a strong understanding of VAT/GST regulations, e‑invoicing mandates, and business process analysis with the ability to work effectively in cross‑functional, global environments.

Business & Regulatory Analysis

• Analyze global and regional e‑invoicing and real‑time reporting mandates (e.g., PEPPOL, clearance models, digital reporting requirements).
• Interpret indirect tax and compliance requirements and translate them into functional and technical business requirements.
• Assess current invoice‑to‑cash and procure‑to‑pay processes to identify gaps, risks, and optimization opportunities related to e‑invoicing.

Solution Design & Implementation

• Partner with IT, finance, tax, and external vendors to support e‑invoicing solution selection, design, and deployment.
• Create detailed documentation including:
  • Business requirements documents (BRDs)
  • Functional specifications
  • Process maps and data flow diagrams
• Validate system configurations and integrations (e.g., ERP, middleware, tax engines).

Stakeholder & Project Support

• Act as a primary liaison between tax, finance, IT, procurement, and external service providers.
• Support project planning, testing cycles (UAT), and go‑live readiness.
• Provide clear communication and status updates to stakeholders, highlighting risks and remediation plans.

Testing, Compliance & Continuous Improvement

• Develop and execute user acceptance testing (UAT) scenarios focused on regulatory compliance and business accuracy.
• Support post‑implementation monitoring to ensure sustained compliance and operational efficiency.
• Track regulatory changes and recommend enhancements to existing e‑invoicing processes and systems.

Who – the Candidate:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or related field
• 4–7+ years of experience as a Business Analyst, with demonstrated exposure to:
• E‑invoicing, digital tax reporting, or indirect tax compliance
• ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Dynamics)
