Business Partnering

• Act as the finance point of contact for assigned business Units, supporting them in managing their budgets and cost base.
• Provide program/project financial analysis in a capital-intensive environment: capex planning, project profitability, cost to complete and milestone tracking.
• Partner on business cases, investment appraisals (NPV, IRR, payback) and ad-hoc decision-support analysis.
• Challenge assumptions constructively, identify risks and opportunities, and drive accountability for financial performance across the organization.
• Support the monitoring and reporting of public funding and grants.

• Support financial control activities and help strengthen internal processes and controls.
• Support the automation and continuous improvement of planning and reporting tools and systems.

Cross-functional & Ad-hoc

• Support strategic and corporate initiatives (e.g. M&A support, fundraising, special projects) as required.

Required Qualifications & Experience

• Degree in Finance, Economics, Business Administration, Engineering Management or a related quantitative field.
• 6+ years of relevant experience in FP&A, financial controlling or business partnering, ideally within an international group, scale up, manufacturing, engineering or technology environment.
• Strong understanding of the three financial statements and how they interconnect.
• Proven experience building and maintaining financial models and driving budgeting/forecasting cycles.
• Advanced Excel/financial modelling skills (comfort with large datasets, complex formulas, structured model design).
• Solid grounding in IFRS accounting principles.
• Fluent English and Italian.

Preferred/Nice-to-Have

• Experience in a capital-intensive, project- or program-driven industry (aerospace, defense, hardware/deep-tech, engineering, manufacturing).
• Exposure to public funding/grant reporting (ESA, EU, PNRR or similar).
• Experience with ERP systems (e.g. SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Infor LN, NetSuite) and BI/planning tools (e.g. Power BI, Tagetik, or similar).
• Familiarity with a listed-company environment and its reporting requirements.

Skills & Competencies

• Strong analytical mindset with attention to detail and the ability to see the bigger picture.
• Excellent business partnering and communication skills; able to explain financial concepts to nonfinance stakeholders.
• Proactive, hands on and comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast paced, evolving environment.
• Strong prioritization skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines.
• Collaborative team player with a continuous-improvement attitude.
