Familiarity with payroll-specific tools like DATEV (or equivalent) is a strong advantage. • Financial Expertise: A solid background in payroll accounting or financial bookkeeping, with the ability to manage reconciliations and payroll-to-GL processes seamlessly. • Key Attributes: High level of accuracy, attention to detail, and discretion when handling sensitive data. Ability to work independently across multiple payroll cycles and surface issues proactively. • Communication & Collaboration: Confident collaborating cross-functionally and holding external providers accountable when needed. • Languages: Excellent written and spoken German and English language skills are required; French language skills are a plus.
