Finance Manager driving end-to-end controlling, liquidity, and finance transformation in growth businesses.
GermanyWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Finance Manager with end-to-end responsibility for finance, controlling, liquidity management, budgeting, and finance transformation in a high-growth environment. I manage an approximately €15 million budget, monthly cash flows exceeding €1.5 million, and oversight across four legal entities, including involvement in establishing one US and one German entity.
I’ve delivered measurable improvements through reporting automation (implementing Power BI, reducing reporting time by ~25%), cost optimization (new shipping provider ~20% savings; new payment provider ~15% savings), and AI-enabled process automation using Claude Code. I bring a strong HGB and IFRS audit background from KPMG—where I independently led audits and coordinated teams of up to five—and I enjoy business partnering and scalable finance processes.
