This role sits at the heart of the finance function, owning end-to-end group consolidation and financial reporting across multiple group entities. Working closely with the Head of Finance, you'll drive accuracy, scalability, and continuous improvement in consolidation workflows - making a direct impact on the quality of financial insight across the organisation.
What You'll Do
Design and optimise consolidation processes in LucaNet, including intercompany reconciliations, eliminations, and capital consolidation, with a focus on scalability and efficiency.
Consolidate individual financial statements from group companies and contribute to the preparation of consolidated financial statements, including plausibility checks and financial analysis.
Support group reporting at both standalone and consolidated levels, creating and commenting on budget-vs-actual (Soll-/Ist) variance analyses.
Analyse complex balance sheet and P&L structures within a group accounting context.
Advise group entities on harmonising accounting and tax treatments across the organisation.
Continuously refine and enhance consolidation and reporting processes to drive operational excellence.

3+ years of hands-on experience in group accounting and consolidation, with direct involvement in consolidating financial statements across multiple group entities.
Demonstrated expertise in intercompany reconciliations, interim result eliminations, capital consolidation, and debt consolidation.
Degree in business administration, accounting, or finance with a focus on HGB/IFRS reporting standards, or an equivalent professional qualification.
Proven proficiency with LucaNet or a comparable consolidation software platform.
Experience across both accounting/controlling and group consolidation - not just one or the other.
Experience preparing and reviewing consolidated financial statements, including variance analysis and plausibility checks.
Fluent German (C1+) and business-fluent English (C1) - both written and spoken.
Experience with Microsoft Dynamics ERP and/or DATEV is a plus.
