SR Finance Manager, Global Direct E-Commerce

Logitech is the Sweet Spot for people who want their actions to have a positive global impact while having the flexibility to do it in their own way.

The Team and Role:

With a fast-moving, innovative culture and strong balance sheet, Logitech aims to extend human potential in work & play by designing software-enabled hardware solutions that drive superior performance when gaming and superior productivity while at work. We’re looking for the right person to join our finance team. Is that you?

We are looking for a SR Finance Manager, Global Direct E-Commerce to support the Head of Global Direct E-Commerce (GDE) on a journey of consistent sales growth and profit  improvement, while ensuring strong processes and controls are in place on financial planning & reporting.

The SR Finance Manager, Global Direct E-Commerce is a critical and multi-faceted role. While it will involve some recurring tasks every quarter (ensuring the books are closed correctly, that SOX controls are performed, etc.), it will also require some critical thinking & advanced modeling capabilities to explore growth opportunities (geographic expansion, strategic engagements with external partners, commercial & go-to-market (GTM) strategies, etc.).

This role has the potential to give the successful candidate relatively high exposure to Senior Leadership, because GDE is a very strategic business at Logitech.

In this role, you will be a member of the GDE Leadership Team, and will provide finance & business analytics support to the entire GDE organization, ranging from the Tech team (Long-Term / R&D-like investments) to the Marketing team (incl. modeling of advertising impacts) to the Commercial team (where your support will be expected on business planning & go-to-market analyses).

This finance role has a full P&L responsibility that you will manage together with the Head of GDE. But this role goes beyond finance, with the ownership of the e-commerce business analytics. You will report to the Global Head of Sales Finance & Operations, a team that you will collaborate with, including to benchmark GDE’s performance with other GTM channels.

The Sr Finance Manager, Global E-Commerce will play a key role in offering an unbiased and independent view on the business and on assessing the financial impact of the decisions that need to be made. She/he will be a key enabler who ensures the Global Commercial Organisation (GCO) guidelines are implemented.

The primary business interactions in that position will be the global GDE teams, both Global and Regional. From a functional side, there will be frequent interactions with the regional and global finance teams as well as with the GCO Sales Operations team.

From a commercial standpoint, the position will give you an opportunity to work in close contact with the realities of the E-Commerce business worldwide.
