Our client is a manufacturer of advanced electrical and electronic solutions for mobility
What if you decided to become the financial co‑pilot of a technology‑driven industrial group that is helping to reinvent mobility – a partner to the world’s leading OEMs, where each program you support contributes to smarter, safer and more efficient vehicles on and off the road?
As a global designer and manufacturer of highly engineered electrical and electronic systems, you will be the key person to support this momentum and the development of its activities in North America, we are searching for a CFO USA position.
This role is both demanding and highly visible: you will act as the financial business partner of the US leadership team, secure robust performance management for several plants and business lines, and provide the Group with clear, forward‑looking visibility on the US perimeter.
In this position, you will not simply “produce numbers”: you will structure and challenge the financial narrative behind complex OEM programs, ensure that pricing, investments and industrial footprints support profitable growth, and turn data into decisions by aligning finance, operations, sales and engineering around a shared performance agenda.
A strategic leadership role
Reporting to the Regional CEO and functionally to the Group CFO, you will be responsible for steering the financial governance of multiple sites in Mexico and the U.S., ensuring alignment with the global vision while delivering profitable, sustainable growth at the regional level. You will act as a business co‑pilot, closely supporting operations, industrial management, and commercial teams to drive both efficiency and strategic foresight in a highly competitive market.
Your mission will encompass the full scope of financial management—accounting, controlling, taxation, treasury, and compliance—while leading initiatives to enhance transparency, streamline processes, and embed financial discipline across diverse entities. You will manage and optimize working capital, ensure reliable performance forecasts, and contribute directly to investment decisions that secure the region’s industrial future.
Beyond day‑to‑day governance, you will design and implement tools and methodologies to improve visibility, strengthen forecasting capabilities, and support continuous improvement programs across plants. Acting as a bridge between global management and local realities, you will balance ambition with pragmatism, ensuring that each business unit contributes effectively to the Group’s international success.
Your profile
You are an accomplished finance executive with broad experience in manufacturing or the automotive sector, ideally within a multinational environment operating across Mexico and the U.S. You combine strong technical expertise in finance (US GAAP, IFRS, local tax and compliance requirements) with a leadership style rooted in collaboration, accountability, and performance.
Fluent in English and Spanish, you navigate effortlessly across cultures, building rapport with both global stakeholders and local teams. You lead with influence rather than authority, encouraging initiative and ownership, and are able to translate complex financial data into clear, actionable insights that drive business results.
You are ready to take on a role where strategic impact, innovation, and operational excellence intersect. This position offers the chance to shape the future of a regional organization that plays a pivotal role in a global industrial group renowned for its technological leadership, commitment to people, and long‑term vision.
Joining this company means leading with purpose—contributing to sustainable mobility, industrial innovation, and international growth while developing one of the most strategic regions within a world-class organization.
