Definition VIE

The Volunteer for International Experience (VIE) program is an international program sponsored by the French Ministry of Economy, Finance and Employment, open to Airbus to offer young professionals the opportunity to have valuable paid work experience abroad in a technical or business function.

Your location

You will be working at the largest production site for civil aircraft situated in Hamburg. Its location on the southern banks of the river Elbe includes the option to commute by ferry. Experience the special flair of Hamburg in your spare time where vibrant cosmopolitan culture meets nautic legacy.

Your benefits

* Work-life balance with a 35-hour week (flexitime).
* Mobile working after agreement with the department.
* International environment with the opportunity to network globally.
* Work with modern/diversified technologies.
* At Airbus, we see you as a valuable team member and you are not hired to brew coffee, instead you are in close contact with the interfaces and are part of our weekly team meetings.
* Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.

Tasks & accountabilities

We are looking for a highly motivated Young Potential (VIE) to join our Finance team as a Project Controller. Your mission is to revolutionize how we track and control the costs of our components-transitioning from traditional reporting to a data-driven, holistic financial model.
You will be the bridge between Procurement, Production, and IT Systems, ensuring that every part-whether bought or built-is accounted for with precision.

Your main tasks will include:

* Buy & BIM Actuals Strategy: Co-lead the strategic project to enable "Buy" and "Buy-In-The-Make" (BIM) actuals controlling. You will be instrumental in defining how we track parts that shift between internal production and external supply chains.
* Cost Structure Architecture: Define and set up robust cost structures and actuals mapping. You will ensure that financial reporting aligns perfectly with complex supplier contracts.
* Procurement Collaboration: Partner closely with Procurement Buyers to ensure "circularity"-ensuring that what is signed in a contract is accurately reflected in our financial reporting.
* In-House Parts Controlling: Develop and implement a holistic controlling concept for in-house parts, collaborating with Plant Controllers to ensure financial transparency from the shop floor to the balance sheet.
* Digital Innovation (Skywise): Establish a methodology to translate Cost of Production into Cost of Sales. Your goal is to host this front-end solution within Airbus Skywise (Big Data platform), pushing the boundaries of traditional Excel-based controlling.

This role will involve travel for business : This role offers a unique "Grand Tour" of Airbus. You will be required to travel to various Airbus Aerostructures sites to align processes and build your network across the company.

Required skills

You have the following skills and experience:

* Education: Master's degree in Finance, Business Administration, Industrial Engineering, or Data Science.
* Mindset: You are a "digital native" with a strong data affinity. You don't just report numbers; you look for the story behind them.
* Technical Skills: Strong background in Information Management Systems and Data Analytics. Familiarity with SAP, Skywise, Palantir Foundry, or SQL is a major plus.

in addition you are capable to demonstrate the following skills:

* Soft Skills: Open-minded, pragmatic, and solution-oriented. You are comfortable presenting to stakeholders and can navigate a multicultural environment.
* Languages: Fluent in English. German is an advantage given the Aerostructures context and the Hamburg location.

Please upload the following documents: cover letter, CV, relevant transcripts, letters of reference.
