  • Ensuring systems and technology remain aligned with business processes and objectives
  • Building strong relationships with Finance, IT, management and third-party providers

  • Several years’ experience working across Finance & Controlling and IT

  • A good understanding of Finance and Controlling business processes and how they translate into IT solutions
  • Experience leading IT projects and managing stakeholders

  • A relevant degree or equivalent professional experience

What will make you successful?

You’ll be someone who can look beyond individual requirements and understand the bigger picture - identifying where technology can genuinely improve the way Finance operates.

You’ll be comfortable challenging existing processes, developing practical solutions and bringing people with you through change. Most importantly, you’ll be able to turn business needs into clear technology roadmaps and tangible results. Skills
