Bilal Haider serves as the Director of Tax at Fiscal Fusion Consulting, bringing over a decade of cross-border experience in financial reporting, tax advisory, and regulatory compliance. A Fellow Member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (FCA) and an Associate Member of the Pakistan Institute of Public Finance Accountants (APA), Bilal is highly regarded for his dual expertise in Taxation, Compliance and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
His professional skill set spans a wide spectrum, with a strong foundation in IFRS, Corporate Tax strategy and implementation, Value Added Tax (VAT), Excise Tax, and Transfer Pricing compliance under OECD and BEPS guidelines. At every stage of tax advisory and compliance, Bilal applies IFRS principles to ensure financial clarity, alignment with reporting standards, and optimized tax outcomes. This integration of IFRS knowledge into tax work enables him to deliver solutions that are both technically sound and regulatorily compliant.
At Fiscal Fusion, Bilal leads complex tax mandates where his IFRS expertise is a core pillar of client advisory. His work includes Free Zone structuring, ERP tax configurations, audit support, due diligence, and the preparation of private clarification requests—ensuring that each solution meets both tax and financial reporting standards. Whether conducting tax impact assessments or handling corporate tax filings, he consistently bridges tax obligations with IFRS-compliant financial insights.
Prior to joining Fiscal Fusion, Bilal held senior tax positions at Vista Vision Auditing and Creative Zone Group. In these roles, he managed compliance portfolios involving VAT, Excise, and Corporate Tax, while also applying IFRS frameworks to improve the accuracy and transparency of financial reporting across industries such as logistics, real estate, contracting, and e-commerce.
Earlier in his career, Bilal held senior finance roles at publicly listed firms like Al Shaheer Corporation and Nimir Group. As Manager Finance, he led the preparation of IFRS-compliant financial statements, supported budgeting and forecasting, and oversaw ERP (SAP B1) implementations to improve reporting, internal controls, and tax alignment.
He managed working capital, planned infrastructure financing, and secured funding through trade finance and loan structuring. These roles strengthened his ability to align internal accounting with audit and tax frameworks.
Bilal began his career at Ernst & Young Pakistan, advancing to Supervising Auditor. He conducted statutory audits, internal control reviews, and financial due diligence across sectors including manufacturing, FMCG, and telecom—delivering full IFRS-based financial statements and guiding clients through regulatory requirements.
This diverse exposure built a strong foundation in financial reporting, compliance, and operational improvement. At Fiscal Fusion, he now advises clients on tax structuring, ERP alignment, and audit readiness—consistently applying IFRS principles and regulatory insight.

Lead with integrity, follow through with intent, and show up when it matters most. I believe excellence isn’t a one-time effort—it’s a habit built on discipline, clarity, and the courage to own outcomes.
Every challenge is a chance to think sharper, act faster, and deliver better. I don’t just advise—I partner, I listen, and I push until the solution is not only right, but resilient.
For me, success lies in the details we don’t ignore, the promises we keep, and the extra step we take when no one’s watching. That’s where trust is built—and that’s where great work begins.
