- Solid understanding of Management Accounting under IFRS, and the connection between reporting, accounting, and financial controls.
- Excellent analytical and synthesis skills with the ability to evaluate consolidated international data (from manufacturing to distribution).
- Outstanding communication skills to build close relationships with regional management; fluent English is required, and French is a plus.
