Company Description
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives. Our mission is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges. From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.
The Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes (the Global Forum) has played a key role in the development and acceptance of international standards on transparency and effective exchange of information (EOI) for tax purposes and in monitoring progress in implementing these standards. It has played a critical role in the international community’s efforts over the past ten years to counter international tax avoidance and evasion. The Global Forum currently includes 171 members on an equal footing, a list of whom can be found on the Global Forum website www.oecd.org/tax/transparency.
The Global Forum Secretariat is based in the OECD’s Centre for Tax Policy and Administration (CTPA), which is the focal point for the OECD’s work on all taxation issues, both international and domestic. 
The Global Forum’s primary focus is to oversee the implementation of the standards. The main part of the Global Forum’s work is to prepare peer review reports which assess a jurisdictions’ legal framework for exchange of information as well its practices. The Global Forum peer review work includes monitoring and reviewing jurisdictions’ implementation of the new international standard on Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI). This includes reviewing and preparing reports on member tax administrations’ Information Security Management (ISM) arrangements and their safeguarding of data exchanged under international exchange of information (EOI) agreements to seek to ensure that these are aligned with internationally recognised information security standards (i.e. confidentiality and data safeguards peer reviews). The Global Forum also provides capacity building services and technical assistance to member jurisdictions, particularly developing country tax administrations, to help them implement the standards in the area of ISM in order to participate and benefit from AEOI and the environment of tax transparency and EOI.
The Global Forum is seeking Tax Policy Advisors to contribute to the work set out above. As subject matter experts, s/he will conduct complex and politically sensitive reviews, participate in the development of training programmes and provide a high-quality service to support developing countries implementing the international standards. S/he will represent the Global Forum at international meetings, conferences and media events and will work closely with senior policymakers from the world’s leading economies. 
Availability and willingness to undertake international travel is required.
The vacancy is open to nationals of OECD member countries and jurisdictions of the Global Forum.
