In this high-impact role, you will act as the strategic finance partner and go-to advisor for senior stakeholders - bringing strong domain understanding, rigorous scenario thinking, and crisp decision support to the table.

Responsibilities

What you’ll do

• Be the strategic finance partner for Dealer leadership: bring strategic insight, influence key decisions, and ensure financial implications are fully understood (not only “descriptive P&L”).
• Drive performance management & business steering: own the cadence of forecasts for the domain, proactively identify risks/opportunities, and co-create steering measures with the business.
• Explain value drivers and enable action: translate month-end variance into the “why” behind performance and recommend concrete actions to close gaps or accelerate growth.
• Build scenarios and evaluate initiatives: develop scenario models and create/validate business cases for commercial initiatives - grounded in assumptions, sensitivities, and ROI thinking.
• Competitor & market perspective: contribute benchmarking and competitive context to help set ambition levels and support strategic trade-offs.
• Integrated process sparring with Core FP&A: work both with and through the FP&A framework - challenging business assumptions using Core FP&A insights while feeding operational realities back into forecasts and scenarios.
• Align narrative and ensure consistency: help ensure the Dealer story is consistent and decision-ready for management discussions by aligning drivers, actions, and outlook.

Requirements

• 8–10+ years of relevant FP&A / finance experience, with a proven track record of strong stakeholder partnering and business steering in complex environments.

• Strong analytical toolkit: scenario modeling, business case development, and the ability to distill complex topics into clear recommendations.
• Excellent communication and influencing skills - you can operate with “high challenge & high support” and build trusted partnerships with senior leaders.
• Comfortable operating in a transforming FP&A setup - able to improve ways of working while keeping day-to-day steering strong and pragmatic.
• Solid systems and tool proficiency (e.g. BI tools such as Looker/Tableau; advanced Excel/Google Sheets).
• Team player with a collaborative mindset - effective across Finance Business Partners, Core FP&A, Accounting, and business stakeholders.
• Bachelor’s degree in Economics, Business Administration, Finance, or a related field.
• Fluent in spoken and written English; German is a plus.
