• Ensure high-quality financial data and smooth collaboration with Accounting and other Finance teams throughout the month-end and planning cycles.
• Translate complex financial analysis into compelling narratives for leadership and board-level audiences.

What you’ll bring: The Ingredients

• Extensive experience in FP&A, Controlling, or a similar strategic finance role, ideally in a complex, multi-entity or international environment.
• Proven people leadership experience, with the ability to coach, develop, and motivate high-performing teams.
• Strong financial and analytical skills, with hands-on experience owning planning, forecasting, and performance management cycles end to end.
