Job Description

As a Senior Business Controller, you will support stakeholders in different settings ranging from the day-to-day operations to ad-hoc initiatives. With your solid understanding of the business, you will work within the planning cycle to support the budget and forecast process and provide financial analysis, simulations, and reporting in support of various projects and business cases. In addition, you will provide managers ongoing guidance and coaching to support decision-making. This is truly an exciting opportunity for a business oriented and talented individual to apply and grow your skills in a fast growing, international and dynamic work environment.

The role is based in Riga, Latvia and is part of the global BC team and reports to the Senior Business Controller Manager located in Malta.

Your responsibilities:

  • Assist stakeholders to analyze the financial performance of the units in the region, by helping them analyze trends and identifying inefficiencies. Participate actively in management discussions by providing critical financial insight and constantly challenge management to contain controllable costs.
  • Provide information to help in decision making by modelling the effect of proposed changes.
