In doing so, you combine operational reporting with a deep understanding of data and processes.

You will work closely with Finance and Data & Analytics and actively contribute to making reporting and planning structures more sustainable, transparent, and efficient. Your contribution will lay the foundation for informed financial decisions in the company.

A particular focus is on reducing manual efforts and further developing data-driven solutions: You identify optimization potentials, drive automations forward, and strengthen the quality and availability of our financial data.

• Drive Automation: You identify manual and error-prone processes and develop pragmatic automation solutions to increase efficiency and reduce manual intermediate steps.
• Collaborate with Data & Analytics: You use data platforms such as Databricks, work closely with analytics teams, and translate technical requirements into data-driven solutions and KPI structures.

What You Should Ideally Bring With You:

• Professional Experience: Several years of experience in financial reporting, controlling, or FP&A as well as in the monthly closing environment
• Technical Expertise: Confident understanding of financial key figures, reporting logics, and closing interrelations
• Systems & Data: Very good Excel skills (including complex models and Power Query) as well as solid experience with reporting or consolidation systems (e.g., Tagetik, SAC); in addition, knowledge of BI tools (e.g., Power BI), SQL or data models, and initial experience with modern data platforms (e.g., Databricks) or process automation are advantageous
• Data Competence: Experience in the preparation, validation, and analysis of financial key figures as well as in the work with forecast and planning structures
• Languages: Good German and English skills

With These Qualities, You Fit Well With Us:

• Structured & Resilient: You keep an overview even in the monthly closing
• Proactive: You question existing processes and drive improvements forward
• Analytical & Solution-Oriented: You derive clear insights from data
