Gershom Dacoco

Senior Manager, International Tax & Reporting at QBE

Speaker

With over 14 years at QBE, I have built a diverse and progressive career across underwriting, financial reporting, and global tax. I began my journey in underwriting before transitioning into financial reporting, where I played a key role in offshoring reporting processes to QBE’s Group Shared Services Centre. This led to my move into group financial reporting, followed by my current position in global tax.

As a Chartered Accountant with a Master of Tax, I am responsible for QBE’s global transfer pricing documentation, international tax matters, and AIFRS tax reporting. I lead the implementation of key global tax initiatives, including Pillar 2, and represent QBE as a member of the ATO’s Pillar 2 Special Purpose Working Group. I also oversee tax transparency reporting, including both EU and Australian public Country-by-Country Reporting, and have recently led the global rollout of a new tax reporting platform.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my two children, tackling DIY projects, gardening, and pursuing my passion for music as a dedicated musician.
