• Manage a rolling forecast for each portfolio business for the full financial year, incorporating modelled strategic initiatives.

• Interact with the M&A team and review modelling assumptions for potential acquisitions in the region.

• Lead, together with the Strategic Business Partner and HR Business Partner, the day‑to‑day relationships with the business units in the DACH region.

• Play an active role in integration activities for newly acquired businesses, including assessing system and data requirements and helping to design reporting solutions, together with the Integration Director and the Head of BI.

• Support weekly sales pipeline reporting and reviews.

• Manage your own team, including a Regional Financial Controller, on day‑to‑day activities.

What We Are Looking For

• A self‑starting personality that fits into an environment characterised by entrepreneurship.

• The ability to manage many stakeholders across multiple, distinct businesses in varying stages of maturity.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

• Completed university education, ideally supplemented with a further professional finance qualification such as CA, ACA, CIMA or an equivalent qualification.

• At least 5 years’ experience within an international or complex environment, with the drive and ambition to make a difference.

• Minimum of 5 years’ experience in a Business Controlling, FP&A or Finance Business Partner role.

• Fluency in English and German.

• Strong communication skills in an international, multi‑language setting.

• Ability to communicate at all levels of an organisation.

• Ability to establish strong rapport with senior stakeholders and local leadership teams.

• Ideally, a background working in fast‑growing technology and/or SaaS companies.

• Able to travel occasionally across the DACH region and Europe as required.

Above all, we are looking for a great colleague: enthusiastic, approachable, honest, committed, result‑focused and a team player who wants to achieve the best results together.
