You will also have excellent supervisory and leadership qualities. With all the above mentioned it is important to have proven experience in data analysis focusing on financial data reporting and confidently presenting to the Finance Planning & Business Manager.

For this role, you should hold a degree in Finance or Accounting (ideally with a CFA certification) followed by relevant work experience. Knowledge of forecasting models and cost accounting processes are key requirements for this position.

Working for TRUMPF you will have the opportunity to be involved with a high-performing team while contributing to a pioneer industry leader.
