What you will need

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business Informatics, Business, Finance, Computer Science, or a related field
• A strong analytical mindset paired with hands-on data-analytics and implementation ability — you move from problem statement to working solution
• Practical experience in Controlling, Sales Controlling, or Commercial Finance (or a strong drive to build it quickly), ideally including planning/forecasting or sales performance management
• Experience with SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) or comparable enterprise BI/planning platforms and readiness to ramp up fast; an understanding of data modeling, ETL/ELT basics, and KPI governance is a plus
• Interest and initial experience in automation, AI-assisted analytics, or agentic workflows; familiarity with Microsoft Copilot Studio (or similar), responsible AI practices (data privacy, role-based access, traceability), and vibe coding are welcome
• Excellent communication skills — you translate between business and IT and explain complex topics to non-technical stakeholders
• High ownership, curiosity, and a proactive, structured, reliable working style
• A bonus: hands-on tooling such as scripting (SQL, Python, Java) or automation platforms (e.g. Power Automate / Power Platform), and SAP experience (S/4HANA, SAP BW, SAP Datasphere, Business Data Cloud)
