BUSINESS CONTROLLER

Competition among companies is getting tougher, so you want to know exactly where the money is being earned or burned. As a business controller, you determine how to increase a company’s performance. Your work includes the evaluation of data, comparison of targets and the current situation, and preparation of budgets and forecasts to get a “glimpse into the future”. You will work closely with other departments and management and offer advice on how to achieve the company’s goals.
