About our client

Our client is a well-established consumer commerce business with a large, loyal customer base and a strong direct-to-consumer model. Operating at the intersection of content, commerce and digital customer engagement, the company has built a leading position in its market and is actively investing in the next phase of growth.

A key strategic priority is the further development of live commerce and omni-channel business models, supported by technology, data capabilities and a continued focus on customer-centric innovation. As the company evolves its commercial platform and operating model, finance will play a critical role in enabling transparency, performance steering and scalable growth.

To support this transformation, the company is seeking a Finance Director who will modernize and further develop the finance function while acting as a strategic business partner to senior leadership. The role will combine financial leadership, operational excellence and transformation capability, with responsibility for financial integrity, transparency and compliance across accounting, group accounting & general ledger, tax and customs. The position is based in Munich, Germany. What the job involves

Act as a trusted business partner to the CFO, senior leadership team and shareholders, providing financial insights and recommendations to support strategic decision-making
Lead and develop the finance organization fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement
Lead and continuously develop the accounting, group accounting, tax, customs and risk management functions, ensuring high-quality financial reporting and governance in line with IFRS and HGB requirements
Oversee all accounting operations, including general ledger management, month-end, quarter-end and year-end closing processes, consolidation, statutory reporting and audit coordination
Drive the digitalization, automation, and standardization of finance processes, systems and controls to improve efficiency, scalability and data quality
Ensure the integrity, transparency and audit readiness of financial data, providing reliable decision support to senior management, shareholders, auditors and other key stakeholders
Ensure effective tax compliance, transfer pricing governance and the appropriate management of customs-related matters in cooperation with internal and external experts
Further strengthen internal controls, risk management processes and governance frameworks to support a growing and evolving business environment
Serve as the primary point of contact for auditors, tax advisors, legal advisors and other external stakeholders on all matters related to accounting, reporting, compliance and governance
Lead finance-related transformation and cross-functional projects, including ERP, reporting, consolidation and process improvement initiatives, with a strong focus on digitalization and operational excellence
The role does not directly oversee FP&A, controlling, or treasury, but works closely with these functions to ensure robust financial reporting and reliable information for management, shareholders and lenders

Who we are looking for

Degree in Business Administration, Finance, Economics, Law or a related field; CPA, Tax Advisor or Certified Accountant qualification is a plus
Proven leadership experience in accounting, group accounting, financial reporting or finance governance functions, ideally within a high-volume retail, e-commerce omni-channel, or consumer-facing environment
Strong expertise in IFRS and HGB, including consolidated and statutory financial statements, reporting processes and complex accounting matters
Solid track record in general ledger management, closing processes, audit coordination and financial governance
Experience overseeing tax compliance, audits, transfer pricing and related tax matters
Good understanding of customs processes, import regulations and associated compliance risks
Familiarity with risk management, internal controls and process optimization

Prior experience in a private equity-backed or capital markets environment is preferred

Highly analytical, structured and hands-on leader with strong execution capabilities, sound judgment and a pragmatic approach to problem-solving
Excellent communication, influencing and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to engage effectively with senior executives, shareholders, auditors, advisors and internal stakeholders
Change-oriented mindset with the ability to drive digitalization, standardization, and automation initiatives while maintaining the highest standards of financial reporting and compliance
