In a nutshell

We're looking for a Capex Controller who can combine first-class technical accounting with an eye for detail and a problem-solving mindset. You aren’t just managing our asset register; you’re an innovative thinker who understands how the lifecycle of our physical and intangible assets fuels our growth. As we’re building a best-in-class Finance function, you’re able to rethink asset management through the lens of technology rather than just executing manual, repetitive operations. You’re confident, take full ownership of the asset related processes for the Picnic group, and collaborate across departments to ensure our investments are clearly recorded and managed. You’re an enabler who helps us scale the finance domain of the future!
