About the role: What's in the Box

You will act as a strategic partner to Managing Directors across our diverse brand portfolio (including HelloFresh Mealkits, Greenchef, Factor, Good Chop, and Pet’s Table), co-owning the P&L and driving regional growth.

• Organizational Leadership: Manage and mentor a high-performing team of nearly 50 employees across Tax, Treasury, and Accounting, fostering a culture of excellence and operational efficiency.


• Matrix Collaboration: Collaborate with central finance teams in Germany on treasury, systems and group accounting/reporting, while maintaining regional autonomy.


• Brand Integration: Oversee the financial integration of new and evolving brands into the group structure, ensuring scalable reporting and independent FP&A capabilities, where necessary. 

What you’ll bring: The Ingredients

• Financial Expertise: Comprehensive experience across the full finance spectrum, including mastery of US accounting standards, tax regulations, balance sheet management, and FP&A.


• Strategic Mindset: The ability to transcend traditional reporting roles to become a credible business partner who understands the operational needs of Managing Directors.


• Matrix Navigating: Significant experience operating successfully within a global matrix organization, balancing local business needs with group-level requirements.


• Leadership Presence: Exceptional communication and leadership skills necessary to unite a large finance function and represent the US market within the central group leadership.
