Flix operates one of the world's largest intercity mobility networks and is scaling across continents. The finance function needs to match that ambition—standardized, automated, and future-ready. This role is the engine behind that transformation.
You will own the global accounting process agenda end-to-end: setting standards, driving harmonization across regions and shared service centres, and leading the shift toward intelligent, AI-enabled finance operations. This is an opportunity to build something from the inside after years of advising clients on finance transformation from the outside.
Key Responsibilities:
- Define and govern global accounting standards, policies, procedures, and controls across all Flix entities and shared service centres
- Drive process harmonization and standardization across regions, business units, and GBS/SSC environments
- Lead the global process optimization roadmap—from RPA and workflow automation to agentic AI and ERP enhancements—prioritizing initiatives that deliver measurable value
- Set and monitor process KPIs, service levels, and performance targets; lead continuous improvement cycles based on data
- Embed compliance across accounting policies, internal controls, audit requirements, and regulatory standards
- Partner with SSC operations, IT, country and regional finance teams, Product Owners, and external providers to optimize end-to-end process performance
- Apply process mining, analytics, and benchmarking to surface inefficiencies, identify root causes, and adopt leading practices
- Lead change management—communications, training, and adoption—for new processes and technologies
Requirements:
- Big 4 background at Senior Manager level or above in Finance Transformation, Accounting Advisory (FAAS), or GBS/Shared Services (core requirement)
- Proven track record delivering multi-country finance transformation or process excellence programs; international experience in Europe or North America is a strong plus
- Deep expertise in end-to-end accounting processes (R2R, P2P, O2C) with the ability to translate business requirements into technology-enabled solutions
- Hands-on experience with ERP platforms (SAP, Oracle, Workday) and finance technology tools; familiarity with process automation (RPA, APIs, workflow tools) and process mining is highly valued
- Experience working in or alongside product and engineering teams in agile environments (sprint reviews, roadmap planning)
- Strong stakeholder management across global, cross-functional, and cross-cultural teams
- Degree in Business Administration, Accounting, Finance, or a related field; professional qualifications (CA, ACCA, CPA, CMA) are a plus
