We are on the lookout for a Senior Principal,  Financial Planning and Modelling, to join the Finance team on our journey to always deliver amazing experiences.

In this role, you will be part of the team ensuring Delivery Hero's financial stability and growth. You will provide the insights and analysis that guide our business decisions, helping us meet our financial goals and earn investor confidence. From reporting to strategic planning, your work will have a direct impact on Delivery Hero's ability to innovate, expand, and deliver outstanding experiences to our customers.

As the Senior Principal, you will own the Free Cash Flow (FCF) Planning and Improvement Initiatives at Delivery Hero, while helping to shape future reporting (owned by Group Controlling) and driving group-wide planning capabilities.

• Lead the end-to-end FCF planning across the global portfolio.

• Act as the primary FCF subject matter expert for regional finance teams, helping to upskill and harmonise FCF planning capabilities across the group, particularly on topics related to Working Capital.

• Review consolidated regional submissions and challenge assumptions to ensure accurate, robust group-level cash flow modelling.

• Analyse variances between Actuals and Budget / BEs, particularly focusing on Working Capital (e.g., timing mismatches, structural changes, submission errors).

• Partner with global and regional finance stakeholders to co-develop robust FCF forecasting models, with a dedicated focus on optimising WC accuracy.

• Serve as the designated primary subject matter expert for the implementation of FCF planning within Anaplan, ensuring alignment with group standards and best practices while providing guidance to cross-functional stakeholders throughout the deployment lifecycle.

Ideally, your experience has been gained either in a corporate setting or through a blend of Big 4 advisory and corporate finance roles.

• Financial Statement Integration: Expert-level knowledge of the linkages between the three core financial statements. You can easily translate how P&L accruals, Balance Sheet movements, and cash-relevant items systematically flow together to drive top-down and bottom-up Free Cash Flow projections.

• Working Capital Mastery: Deep, technical understanding of the Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) and related concepts (such as DIO, DSO, and DPO). You possess a precise understanding of which specific accounts roll up into working capital reporting and how to build driver-based forecasts for each distinct account, seamlessly connecting operational shifts to balance sheet lines.

• Cash Tax Acumen: Proven ability to bridge the gap between P&L tax expense and actual cash tax outflows. You bring a solid understanding of the cash-flow timing implications of Corporate Income Tax (CIT) instalment payments, withholding taxes, value-added taxes (VAT) settlements, and the mechanics of Deferred Tax Assets/Liabilities.

• IFRS & Capital Expenditure Knowledge: Strong grasp of IFRS 16 and the capitalisation rules driving Capex forecasting.

Ensuring you and all our Heroes are looked after, happy, and healthy is always on the menu. Because if you’re in good shape, then we’re in good shape.
