Leading global provider of indirect tax technology solutions, Vertex Inc., has announced the strategic expansion of its Chief Strategy Office (CSO) with the appointment of Christopher Hall and Kathya Capote Peimbert. Their deep expertise in e-invoicing, global tax compliance, and ERP integration strengthens Vertex’s continued focus on innovation and helping businesses navigate an increasingly complex and dynamic regulatory environment.
As governments around the world accelerate e-invoicing mandates and evolve indirect tax regulations, enterprises face mounting compliance challenges. The expanded CSO at Vertex plays a pivotal role in aligning product innovation with market trends, enabling organizations to manage compliance at scale with automated, customer-driven tax solutions.
“E-invoicing mandates and tax compliance regulations are evolving rapidly, creating a more complex operating environment for global businesses,” said Chirag Patel, Chief Strategy Officer at Vertex. “Kathya and Chris bring decades of expertise that will help us continue to lead in this space, equipping our customers with the technology and insights they need to stay compliant and competitive in an increasingly digital tax environment.”
Hall and Peimbert join a highly regarded team of tax leaders within the CSO and Chief Tax Office, who have been instrumental in shaping Vertex’s technology roadmap and advancing the broader tax industry.
Christopher Hall brings over 30 years of experience in ERP integration, tax technology, and digital compliance. Before joining Vertex, he served as Director of Global Indirect Tax Strategy and European Taxes at Ford, where he led initiatives around compliance, tax automation, audits, and strategic planning. His extensive work with platforms like SAP and Oracle makes him a vital asset as Vertex continues to enhance ERP integrations and support businesses modernizing their tax infrastructure.
“The rapid evolution tax reporting requirements, including e-invoicing mandates, brings both challenges and opportunities. Our goal is to deliver automated solutions that ensure compliance, enhance efficiency, and add value for our customers,” said Hall.
Peimbert has extensive experience in tax technology and global compliance. Previously, she served as the Global E-invoicing Lead at KPMG supporting multinationals in their global tax technology and e-invoicing strategies. Her expertise spans e-invoicing, global indirect tax strategy and regulatory compliance, particularly in Latin America and Europe — two regions at the forefront of tax digitalization. In her new role, she will focus on expanding Vertex’s leadership in e-invoicing and global tax compliance solutions, aligning strategy with regulatory developments worldwide.
“E-invoicing is no longer a future trend – it is a present-day mandate transforming the way businesses operate globally. Our focus on e-invoicing and global compliance solutions will help businesses navigate this complex landscape effectively,” said Peimbert.
