·         Managing month-end close and reporting processes towards the global head office

·         Leading regional reporting, margin analysis, inventory control, audits, and compliance activities

Key success factors:

·         Strong leadership, commercial finance acumen, and a results-driven mindset

·         Proven experience in senior finance leadership roles with regional or multi-site scope in a global manufacturing environment (proven success in managing the finance part of a Maquiladora set up in Mexico is highly advantageous)

·         Demonstrated success influencing business strategy and delivering measurable outcomes

·         A track record of leading through change and embedding new processes across operations

·         Recognized for building high-performing, collaborative teams

·         Solid understanding of supply chain finance and inventory management as well as factory controlling
