You report directly to the CFO and are part of a finance organisation that brings together Accounting, Tax, Controlling, Corporate Finance, and Finance Operations.

This role involves shaping a fast‑growing company's financial structure, translating business demands into clean, audit‑proof processes, and leading the company‑wide SAP implementation.

• You lead, develop and structure your accounting team, establishing a culture of clear ownership and reliable closing timelines.
• You help build an accounting function that is scalable, data‑driven, and ready for an AI‑native finance setup – combining strong accounting expertise with smart automation, clear process ownership, and high‑quality financial data.
• You play a central role in the company‑wide SAP implementation – from designing the accounting processes through testing to go‑live and post‑launch stabilisation.
• You are the key contact for auditors, tax advisors, and authorities, and you steer the audit process.
• You work closely with Controlling, Corporate Finance, and Finance Operations, and drive automation and digitalisation in accounting.

What you need to ride the wave with us

• A structured, hands‑on leadership style with the ability to build scalable processes in a dynamic environment.
• Curiosity for automation, AI‑supported finance workflows, and data‑driven process improvements.
• An eye for detail, a positive mindset combined with a solution focus.
