About the job
For an established Swiss industrial company, we are seeking as part of a succession plan an entrepreneurial-minded, professionally strong and hands-on oriented personality as
Chief Financial Officer CFO (m/f/d)
The company operates in technically demanding project business and is active in a rapidly growing market environment. In particular, the expansion of data centres and increasing investments in AI infrastructure are driving additional demand. The range extends from smaller facilities to complex large-scale projects.
The position combines operational finance responsibility with contract management, digitalisation and IT. We are not looking for a CFO who merely controls and delegates, but a personality who delves deeply into the subject matter, structures topics independently and actively shapes the further development of the company.
Your taskYou will take overall responsibility for finance, controlling and IT and lead a small team. Your main areas of focus include:
- Monthly and annual financial statements, consolidation, planning and reporting
- Cash management, working capital and project controlling
- Contract management for customer and project contracts
- Professional responsibility for SAP Business One
- Digitalisation and automation of processes as well as meaningful AI applications
- Occasional involvement in M&A and corporate development topics
This is not a pure controlling function. You should delve deeply into the subject matter, structure topics independently and actively drive projects forward.
Your profile
You have a degree as a Swiss Certified Public Accountant and bring experience from an industrial company with project business.
Particularly important are:
- High certainty in financial statements and simpler consolidation
- Experience with project business and project evaluation
- Strong commercial and contractual understanding
- Knowledge of SAP Business One
- High affinity for digitalisation and new technologies
- Very good German and English skills
The position is expressly also suitable for an experienced Head of Finance or Finance Director who is ready to take the next step into comprehensive CFO responsibility.
What to expect
You will take on a broad CFO role with plenty of scope for design in an attractive growth environment and work directly with management, the board of directors and ownership.
The entrepreneurial environment is particularly attractive: you will work with very experienced entrepreneurs, investors and industrial personalities and benefit from high-quality sparring in the areas of strategy, corporate development, M&A and capital allocation.
A market-appropriate remuneration with fixed and variable components is offered. In the event of successful cooperation, there is also the prospect of a stake in the company.
We value diversity and therefore welcome all applications - regardless of gender, social background, religion, age and identity. For easier readability and better understanding, we use only one gender form. Of course, all gender forms are equally meant in the respective context.
