Controller
Job Summary
Were looking for someone interested in finance and excited about challenging the status quo.
Our controlling team is great at what it does but much of it still runs on semi manual work. We want to keep changing that and were convinced the person wholl do it best its an engineer business major or data-minded problem-solver whos open to learn accounting/finance and bring modern data habits with them.
Youll join a team of controllers at a Continental Tires sales business based in Spain and Portugal reporting to the Controlling Manager for Iberia. Well teach you the finance side. Youll teach us how to stop doing things the slow way.

Loop in the companys automation team: When somethings worth their time youre the one who spots and scopes it for controlling.
Share what you build: Walk the team through it document it make sure your work outlives you and empower your teammates.
WHY THIS ROLE
