Your Role

As our Fixed Asset Manager (f/m/d), you will build the fixed asset function from the ground up, creating the processes, controls, and documentation that keep our asset base accurate, audit-ready, and scalable. There is no single owner of fixed asset judgment across our entities today, so you will set the standards and become the go-to expert for the entire company.

• Structure the asset register: Define clear data standards, and maintain an accurate, reconciled register across all entities.

• Manage public funding bookings: Establish the booking logic for subsidized assets, including treatment of grants and the related depreciation and reporting requirements.

• Automate the purchase-to-asset process: Work with Procurement to design a documented, automated flow from purchase order to capitalized asset in NetSuite and NetAssets.

• Build procedures and enable the team: Document policies and work instructions, so the process runs reliably, and hand over clear procedures to the emerging team.

• Partner across the business: Work with project, construction, and site teams to get timely, reliable information on assets under construction and assets placed into service.

• Support audit readiness: Prepare reconciliations and supporting documentation, and act as the day-to-day contact for external auditors on fixed asset matters.
