Chief Financial Officer – Mexico & North America

A leading industrial company, part of a global group recognized for its cutting-edge technologies and materials shaping the mobility solutions of tomorrow, is seeking a visionary Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to oversee financial strategy and performance across its operations in Mexico and North America. This is a unique opportunity to join an organization undergoing transformation, innovation, and expansion across one of the world’s most dynamic automotive and industrial regions.

A strategic leadership role

Reporting to the Regional CEO and functionally to the Group CFO, you will be responsible for steering the financial governance of multiple sites in Mexico and the U.S., ensuring alignment with the global vision while delivering profitable, sustainable growth at the regional level. You will act as a business co‑pilot, closely supporting operations, industrial management, and commercial teams to drive both efficiency and strategic foresight in a highly competitive market.

Your mission will encompass the full scope of financial management—accounting, controlling, taxation, treasury, and compliance—while leading initiatives to enhance transparency, streamline processes, and embed financial discipline across diverse entities. You will manage and optimize working capital, ensure reliable performance forecasts, and contribute directly to investment decisions that secure the region’s industrial future.

Beyond day‑to‑day governance, you will design and implement tools and methodologies to improve visibility, strengthen forecasting capabilities, and support continuous improvement programs across plants. Acting as a bridge between global management and local realities, you will balance ambition with pragmatism, ensuring that each business unit contributes effectively to the Group’s international success.

Your profile

You are an accomplished finance executive with broad experience in manufacturing or the automotive sector, ideally within a multinational environment operating across Mexico and the U.S. You combine strong technical expertise in finance (US GAAP, IFRS, local tax and compliance requirements) with a leadership style rooted in collaboration, accountability, and performance.

Fluent in English and Spanish, you navigate effortlessly across cultures, building rapport with both global stakeholders and local teams. You lead with influence rather than authority, encouraging initiative and ownership, and are able to translate complex financial data into clear, actionable insights that drive business results.

You are ready to take on a role where strategic impact, innovation, and operational excellence intersect. This position offers the chance to shape the future of a regional organization that plays a pivotal role in a global industrial group renowned for its technological leadership, commitment to people, and long‑term vision.

Joining this company means leading with purpose—contributing to sustainable mobility, industrial innovation, and international growth while developing one of the most strategic regions within a world-class organization.

By joining our network of exceptional talents, you will benefit from Projekts' expertise, which has helped hundreds of companies achieve their goals through strong partnerships and a personalized approach.
