Recharging and funding specialist

Many employees under Swiss Payroll have (partial) roles for Global, EMEIA, EW or other countries, for which effort the Swiss firm is reimbursed. More than 100 people are impacted in Switzerland. The mechanism of such a reimbursement can be different per person from automatic recharge to manual invoicing based on email agreements. In order to have full transparency and an optimized process to make sure all reimbursements are covered in time, we are looking for a specialist person who is advising and supporting the Swiss firm accordingly. Due to the variety of approaches this role has only little transactional effort in it. We would rather expect that this person has a good understanding of the global finance processes, becomes the go to person in Switzerland and identifies any white spots where the Swiss firm is providing support outside Switzerland without being paid fairly.

Main activities in this role:

• Keep track of recharge status of all Swiss employees
• Clarify with various (senior) stakeholders about funding and recharging agreements
• Clarify with regional, area and global finance colleagues about recharging mechanisms
• Escalate appropriately – if required
• Update and align with SL and function leaders about recharges and fundings
• Advise and support in administrative support with funding requests (e.g. GMIC)
• Ensure invoicing is done according to agreements
• Support with recharge and funding allocation (e.g. Cost Center definition, Engagement Code creation)
• Ensure timely payment of invoices and application of credits
• Go to person in Switzerland and representing Swiss interests outside Switzerland
• Regular reporting to FRO and other stakeholders

Background knowledge

• A combined PBFA and Accounting background would be ideal for this role.
• Knowledge of EY Finance process is particularly important.
• Having a good network within EY is certainly also helpful.
• Highly structured person with a hands-on mentality.
• Good communication skills to also interact professionally with senior stakeholders.
