SOC 2131 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 56% sure that is the right code. Sovos is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 2440 (Business and financial project management professionals) or SOC 2431 (Management consultants and business analysts). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.

Senior Project Manager – Sovos SOVOS Senior Project Manager
Managed & Professional Services
The digitization of tax compliance is fundamentally changing global commerce and how businesses need to operate and grow. Governments now have real-time visibility into business data, creating new challenges and new opportunities for organizations around the world. At Sovos, we're transforming tax compliance from a business requirement into a driver of growth through AI-powered technology that delivers the accurate, real-time insights businesses need to make smarter decisions.
We're solving more than today's tax compliance challenges. We're helping reshape global economies by enabling organizations to navigate increasingly complex and rapidly changing regulatory environments with confidence – and helping communities thrive.
AI is accelerating what's possible, enabling tax and technology professionals to more effectively drive critical regulatory decisions. That's where Sovos excels, combining intelligent technology with human expertise to help customers stay ahead of change.
Don't worry if you don't check every box. We're focused on hiring great people, not perfect resumes. It's less about what you've done elsewhere and more about what you're capable of doing here.
The Role
At Sovos, we're building the future of tax compliance technology across Europe. We're looking for a Senior Project Manager to join our European Professional Services team, with the ability to be based in the United Kingdom, Netherlands, or Spain. This is a senior delivery role for someone who understands the complexity of enterprise SaaS implementations and brings deep familiarity with tax compliance, e-invoicing, or regulatory technology. You'll own end-to-end delivery of complex, multi-country implementations for enterprise clients across EMEA, operating with autonomy and directly impacting client satisfaction and the reputation of Sovos Professional Services in Europe.
