Business Controller | Inventory Re-use & Sustainability (assignment till the end of the year)

Are you a strategic thinker who sees the story behind the numbers? Do you believe that financial health and environmental sustainability go hand in hand?

At ASML, they are on a mission to decouple our growth from our environmental footprint. As our Business Controller for Inventory Re-use, you sit at the heart of this transition. You won’t just be "crunching numbers"—you will be the analytical engine driving high-stakes decisions on capital efficiency and waste reduction.

Your Mission

Your goal is to transform complex data into actionable insights that minimize Excess & Obsolete (E&O) inventory. You act as the bridge between Finance, Supply Chain, and our Business Lines, ensuring that every piece of inventory is utilized to its maximum potential.

Functie-eisen

Key Responsibilities:

Strategic Partnership: Act as the lead finance partner for the E&O organization, influencing senior stakeholders across a complex matrix environment.
Insight-Driven Leadership: Go beyond reporting. You will create holistic overviews of inventory health for the entire organization, identifying risks and opportunities before they hit the balance sheet.
Continuous Innovation: Partner with cross-functional analytics teams (Planning, Delivery, and Business Lines) to enhance transparency and implement structural improvements through change management.
Performance Management: Orchestrate the monthly and quarterly planning cycles, providing the "forward-looking" lens (Forecasts and R&O) that leadership needs to steer the company.

Who Are You? (Soft Skills Focus)

We are looking for a high-energy professional who thrives at the intersection of Finance and Business Operations. You don't just report the news; you help shape it. To be successful in this role, you possess a unique blend of analytical rigor and interpersonal savvy.

Your DNA:

The Bridge Builder: You excel at 'influencing without power.' You know how to forge strong alliances between Finance, Supply Chain, and Business Lines, creating a collaborative environment where different departments strengthen each other.
A Natural Communicator: You have the rare ability to translate complex data into a clear, compelling story. Whether you are presenting to a peer or a senior stakeholder, you adapt your style to ensure your message lands and drives action.
Comfortable with Ambiguity: ASML moves fast. You stay effective and focused under pressure, navigating a changing and sometimes uncertain business environment with a "can-do" mentality.
Critical & Creative: You are not afraid to challenge the status quo. You look at existing processes with a critical eye and use your creativity to propose structural improvements that enhance transparency.
Collaborative Mindset: You are a true team player who enjoys working in a multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural setting, while also possessing the self-starting drive to work independently.

Your Foundation:

Experience: 3 – 5 years in financial analytics or business control. Experience in a complex matrix organization or a supply chain environment is a distinct advantage.
