· Support cash flow forecasting and payment-related activities.

· Follow up on customer and vendor-related finance matters.

· Prepare and review accruals, provisions and other month-end activities.

· Support Intrastat, VAT and other local reporting requirements together with external advisors.

· Support year-end closing, audit and statutory reporting processes.

· Work closely with the Shared Service Centre and Group Finance to ensure accurate and timely financial information.

· Identify and follow up on issues and contribute to improving finance processes and reporting.

· Provide ad-hoc financial analysis and support to management when needed.

What we are looking for:

· Degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration or similar.

· Several years of relevant experience in controlling, accounting or financial reporting.

· Good understanding of financial accounting and controlling.

· Experience with month-end closing, budgeting and forecasting.

· Good Excel skills and experience with ERP/reporting systems.

· Experience with German accounting or working in an international environment is an advantage.

· Good English, both written and spoken.

· German language skills are an advantage but not a requirement.

Most importantly, you are:

· Proactive and take initiative rather than waiting for instructions.

· Structured and detail-oriented.

· Comfortable working independently and taking responsibility.

· Analytical and able to understand and explain financial results.

· Practical and solution-oriented.

· A good communicator who enjoys working with colleagues across different countries and functions.

What we offer:

· A varied and hands-on finance role in an international company.

· A broad scope of responsibilities and the opportunity to work closely with the German business.

· Cooperation with Group Finance and colleagues across Europe.

· A supportive and collaborative working environment.
