The CFO will oversee group reporting and consolidation, budgeting, forecasting, performance improvement, liquidity, working capital, financing, and lender relationships. Responsibilities also include supporting acquisitions and due diligence, leading post-acquisition financial integration, harmonizing systems and processes, and strengthening governance, controls, and risk management.

Candidates should have at least 10 years of finance experience, including several years in a senior finance leadership role, and a track record in private-equity-backed businesses. Experience with acquisitions, due diligence, post-merger integration, multi-entity consolidation, investor reporting, lender covenants, and finance systems projects is required. A degree in business administration, economics, or a related field is expected; experience in transaction services or an investment operating team is an advantage. Fluency in German and English, strong analytical and commercial judgment, and a pragmatic, hands-on leadership style are essential.
