The Opportunity

This position works out of our Wetzlar site in the Abbott Vascular – Abbott Medical GmbH. We’re focused on helping people with diabetes manage their health with life-changing products that provide accurate data to drive better-informed decisions, and we’re revolutionizing the way people monitor their glucose levels with our new sensing technology.

• Serving as a strategic finance partner to key stakeholders—including Division Managers, Sales, and Marketing—by supporting business cases, analyzing monthly trends, leading LBE planning sessions, and setting sales targets.

• Acting as a subject matter expert for reporting tools and processes, leveraging Essbase, Excel, and Power BI, while driving greater adoption of Power BI and introducing AI solutions (e.g., Microsoft Copilot) to enhance reporting efficiency and automation.

• Supporting the FP&A Manager and EMEA HQ team in consolidating and reviewing deliverables for LBE (Last Best Estimate), MEC (Month-End Close), and Confirm cycles.

• Identifying and implementing process improvements to strengthen financial operations and optimize business performance across the DACH region.

Your Qualification

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related discipline; ACCA, CPA, or CIMA membership is a strong asset.

• 4–6 years of progressive experience in finance, accounting, or audit (international companies or Big 5), ideally within an international or divisional structure.

• Strong understanding of divisional financial processes and their impact on overall business performance.

• Excellent interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively engage and influence stakeholders across all levels of management.

• Advanced system proficiency, particularly in Excel and multi-dimensional reporting/BI tools; experience with SAP, HFM, and Power BI is a plus.

• Fluency in German is required. Fluency in a second language and cross-cultural/international experience are highly desirable.
