  • Present financial insights and strategies for key simulations and R&D initiatives, ensuring data accuracy in BW and OneStream.

Analysis & Reporting:

  • Deliver strategic analysis on gross margins, CAPEX, and OPEX, providing actionable insights that influence decision-making at all levels.
  • Collaborate with project managers to maintain up-to-date financial data, produce monthly reports, and generate detailed R&D analysis that supports strategic planning.

  • Proficiency in SAP/ERP systems and advanced Excel skills.
  • A collaborative, business-minded approach, with excellent analytical and communication skills in English.
  • A proactive attitude with a commitment to continuous improvement and delivering results.

The role includes occasional travel to Cologne, allowing you to collaborate effectively with stakeholders, expand your professional network and deepen your understanding of our international operations.
