  • Closing & Forecasting: Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements (in cooperation with financial accounting) and validate the monthly forecast.

  • Management Reporting: Generate meaningful controlling reports (focusing on earnings, costs, and liquidity management) based on BI, AI, and ERP systems, with a strong emphasis on production and sales controlling.

  • Performance Improvement: Enhance multi-level contribution margin accounting, propose business optimizations, and track value creation initiatives.

  • Consolidation: Drive the monthly reporting cycle and consolidate the group's international subsidiaries (including UK and Italy).

  • Stakeholder Management: Support the Group CFO with integrated forecasts, budgeting, and liquidity planning for the group (including covenant calculation, pro-forma reporting, and adjustment reports).

  • Dashboard Implementation: Conceptualize and implement a KPI dashboard for metric-driven corporate management.

  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with the Group CFO, Head of Accounting, external advisors, banks, and investors.


 

Candidate Profile


  • Education: University degree in Business Administration (majoring in Controlling/Finance) or a comparable commercial background with additional certification as a Controller.

  • Professional Experience: At least 8 years of relevant controlling experience within a medium-sized, manufacturing industrial company.

  • Leadership: Initial experience in leading a team (directly and indirectly managing up to 3 employees).

  • Systems & Tools: Very strong proficiency in Excel; experience with BI/analytics software (ideally PowerBI) and ERP systems (e.g., D365), along with excellent knowledge of LucaNet.

  • Industry Knowledge: Deep process understanding of structures in manufacturing (ideally within the printing or packaging industry).

  • PE Affinity: Prior experience working within a Private Equity environment is a distinct advantage.

  • Traits: Strong hands-on mentality, analytical mindset, high commitment, and excellent communication skills.

  • Languages: Business fluent in both German and English (written and spoken).


 

What is on Offer


  • Stability & Compensation: A permanent employment contract and an attractive, performance-oriented compensation package.

  • Influence: Flat hierarchies, short decision-making paths, and a direct reporting line to the Group CFO.

  • Flexibility: Flexible working hours, 30 days of annual leave, and the option to work from home 2 days a week.

  • Growth: Exceptional personal development opportunities within a dynamic, PE-backed portfolio company.
