Junior Controlling / Automation Analyst

Continental AG
Spain and Portugal
On-site

About this role

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Learn and take on real controlling work: Month-end close, reconciliations, budgeting, variance analysis, paired closely with the team while you build that knowledge.

  • Spot the manual work: Repetitive manual tasks that eat everyone's time, and automate them starting with quick, visible wins.

  • Build and maintain Power BI reporting: To stop rebuilding the same output by hand every month.

  • Loop in the company's automation team: When something's worth their time, you're the one who spots and scopes it for controlling.

  • Share what you build: Walk the team through it, document it, make sure your work outlives you and empower your teammates.

  • WHY THIS ROLE

  • You'll have real ownership from day one. You'll help modernize how the finance department works, with the backing to make real changes. And you'll be doing it inside a team that's deliberately built to rotate knowledge around rather than let it pile up with one person including you.

  • WHAT YOU'LL BRING

  • A bachelor’s degree in industrial, Mechanical, Chemical, or Management Engineering, Business Administration, or Information Systems, or something similarly quantitative and technical. We're specifically not looking for Accounting or pure Software/CS backgrounds, we want quantitative rigor and an automation-first instinct.

  • 0–4 years of experience, prior finance exposure is not an exclusion factor. What matters is a track record of solving quantitative problems and building or automating something, even informally.

  • Advanced Excel, and comfort with (or fast aptitude for) Power BI, SQL, and/or Python.

  • A fast, structured way of thinking, you'll be taught a lot in a short time and need to keep up.

  • Fluent Spanish and/or Portuguese, plus working English.

  • A mindset that gets genuinely annoyed doing the same task twice and builds the fix instead.

  • NICE TO HAVE

  • Any exposure to RPA (UiPath, Power Automate or similar).

  • SQL or Python beyond the basics..
