Global Finance Process Excellence Manager – Accounting (m/f/d)

AI in this role

At Flix, we offer a dynamic work environment with competitive pay, strong growth opportunities, and a tech-driven approach to making travel more accessible, sustainable, and affordable.  

At Flix, we've built one of Europe's most innovative mobility platforms — and our finance function is evolving to match. We're looking for a Global Finance Process Excellence Manager to own and transform our end-to-end accounting processes across regions, shared service centres, and business units worldwide.

This is a role for someone who has done the work — designed the process, written the policy, run the workshop, and delivered the implementation — not just advised on it. If you bring Big 4 rigour and are ready to build something with lasting impact inside a fast-moving tech company, this is your next move.

About the Role

Process Ownership & Governance

  • Own the global end-to-end accounting process framework, including standards, policies, procedures, and internal controls
  • Drive harmonization and standardization across regions, business units, and shared service centres
  • Maintain a global process optimization roadmap — prioritizing opportunities and managing delivery of approved initiative

Transformation & Automation

  • Lead process optimization initiatives spanning RPA, agentic automation, workflow redesign, and ERP enhancements
  • Collaborate with Product Owners and engineering teams in agile environments — from roadmap planning through sprint reviews
  • Leverage process mining, analytics, and benchmarking to surface inefficiencies and industry best practices

Performance & Compliance

  • Define, monitor, and report on process KPIs, service levels, and performance targets
  • Ensure ongoing compliance with accounting policies, internal controls, audit requirements, and applicable regulatory standards

Stakeholder & Change Management

  • Partner with SSC, IT, country/regional finance teams, and external providers to optimize cross-functional process performance
  • Lead change management activities — including communication strategies, training design, and technology adoption programmes

About You

Experience

  • Experience at a Big 4 firm at Senior Manager level or equivalent — in Finance Transformation, Process Excellence, Accounting Advisory, or Global Business Services (GBS)
  • Demonstrated ownership of end-to-end accounting process transformation — not advisory delivery alone
  • Hands-on experience delivering multi-country or multi-entity finance transformation projects
  • International project experience across Europe or North America is strongly preferred

Technical Skills

  • Strong command of end-to-end accounting processes (e.g., R2R, P2P, O2C) with the ability to translate business needs into technical solutions
  • Working knowledge of ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle) and finance technology tools
  • Familiarity with process automation technologies — RPA, APIs, and workflow tools — is a plus
  • Comfort operating in agile delivery environments

Soft Skills & Qualifications

  • Excellent stakeholder management skills — able to align and influence across global, regional, and local teams
  • Fluent in English (required); additional languages are an advantage
  • Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Accounting, Finance, or a related field
  • Professional certifications (ACCA, CPA, CFA, or equivalent) or an advanced degree are a plus

We recognize that everyone carries a unique set of valuable skills and experiences. If you think you could have an impact even though you don't meet 100% of the requirements, we still encourage you to apply. We want to hear from you!  

What We Offer

  • Travel perks: 12 free Flix vouchers + 12 discount vouchers for friends & family. 
  • Work from (M)Anywhere: Depending on your role, work from another location for up to 60 days per year. 
  • Hybrid work model: We are an office-first company, but we offer flexibility to balance work and life.
