Siemens Energy

A Snapshot of Your Day

In your new role, you report to the Head of Global Compensation and act as the financial expert for global employee share programs, collaborating closely with colleagues from Compensation & Benefits, Accounting, Controlling, Taxes, and external partners. You take ownership of the accounting and reporting landscape for equity compensation, ensuring compliance with IFRS 2 while maintaining high standards of accuracy and transparency.

You analyze financial impacts, perform valuations together with external experts, and translate complex data into meaningful insights to support decision-making at senior management level. At the same time, you coordinate cross-functional processes across HR, Finance, Payroll, and Treasury, ensuring smooth execution from grant to settlement. Through your analytical expertise and stakeholder collaboration, you drive continuous improvements, optimize reporting processes, and contribute to the evolution of a globally consistent and future-ready share plans framework.
