Finance Analyst (m/f)

Role overview:

We are looking for a high-potential senior analyst to join the Office of Strategic Execution (OSE) team within the DRiV aftermarket division. This role is designed for a commercially minded finance and project professional who can lead cross-functional initiatives, maintain execution discipline, and convert strategic priorities into measurable business outcomes across EMEA.

The successful candidate will operate with a high degree of ownership and credibility. Beyond coordinating actions, the role will follow up firmly with peers, challenge assumptions and timelines, identify root causes, and constructively challenge the status quo. A strong command of P&L build-up is essential: the role will develop robust financial models and business cases, connect commercial actions to revenue, margin, cost, working capital and cash impact, and support business decision-making with clear scenarios and recommendations.

Responsibilities:

• Lead strategic, commercial, and business transformation projects across the EMEA region from concept through implementation and benefit realization.
• Drive execution discipline by developing project plans, monitoring milestones, managing risks, and ensuring accountability across cross-functional teams.
• Analyze commercial, financial, and operational performance to identify growth opportunities, performance gaps, and improvement actions.
• Build and maintain financial models and end-to-end P&L analyses to support business decisions and strategic initiatives.
• Develop, evaluate, and challenge business cases, including investment assessments, ROI calculations, payback analysis, and benefit tracking.
• Perform scenario planning, sensitivity analysis, and profitability assessments to support management decision-making.
• Monitor initiative performance against approved business cases and drive corrective actions when required.
• Prepare executive-level reports, presentations, dashboards, and steering materials for senior leadership.
• Collaborate closely with Commercial, Finance, Marketing, Product Management, Supply Chain, IT, and country teams across EMEA.
• Influence stakeholders, challenge assumptions, and drive continuous improvement through fact-based analysis and structured problem solving.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Business, Economics, or a related field.
• 5-8 years of experience in FP&A, Controlling, Commercial Finance, Strategy, Consulting, Transformation, PMO, or Commercial Operations.
• Strong understanding of P&L management and the ability to translate commercial and operational drivers into financial outcomes.
• Advanced financial modeling skills, including ROI analysis, business case development, scenario planning, sensitivity analysis, and break-even calculations.
• Proven experience leading cross-functional projects and driving initiatives in a matrix organization.
• Advanced Excel skills and strong PowerPoint presentation capabilities; Power BI experience is highly desirable.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and business-partnering skills.
• Ability to challenge stakeholders constructively, influence without formal authority, and drive accountability.
• Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to translate complex analyses into executive-level recommendations.
• Fluent English required; additional European languages are an advantage.
• Experience in automotive aftermarket, manufacturing, distribution, or e-commerce environments is preferred.
• Strong ownership mindset, commercial acumen, and ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced international environment.
