We are currently establishing a Shared Service Center (SSC) for the German-speaking market, focusing on the delivery of high-quality, transactional and operational support services across multiple business functions. Our goal is to build scalable, efficient, and standardized processes that support areas such as HR, Customer Service, Sales, and other corporate functions with their back-office activities.

Key responsibilities:

In this role, you are responsible for the leadership, development, and performance of a team within the Shared Service Center environment. You lead a team of approximately 10–20 employees, ensuring high-quality execution of transactional and operational processes while driving productivity, quality, and adherence to defined standards. You foster a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and teamwork.

You act as the primary point of contact between management and your team, ensuring clear and effective communication. You facilitate team meetings and operational discussions, structure content, and ensure that decisions are consistently implemented. In close coordination with management, you contribute to the continuous improvement and standardization of processes.

You plan and manage task allocation, ensuring timely, efficient, and high-quality delivery while maintaining oversight of priorities and process adherence.

At the same time, you act as a key interface to supported business functions—particularly with German-speaking stakeholders—ensuring clear understanding of requirements and smooth collaboration. You translate business needs into structured processes and ensure their consistent execution.

You foster strong stakeholder relationships, support your team in daily operations, and provide regular, transparent updates to management, including actionable recommendations. You also ensure that language barriers are minimized by facilitating or directly handling German-language communication in critical discussions and escalations.

You foster strong relationships with internal stakeholders, promote a constructive and performance-oriented team culture, and support your team as a functional point of contact in day-to-day operations. The role includes a direct reporting line to department management, for whom you regularly prepare relevant updates, present information transparently, and derive actionable recommendations.
