• This role is based in Munich with flexibility to work (temporarily) remotely from anywhere within Germany or from home.
• Flexible working hours, a childcare allowance (€300 per child/month), and support in finding suitable childcare to help you balance work and family life.
• Access to discounted gym memberships and a range of attractive mobility benefits – from exclusive deals on FINN cars to other flexible commuting options.

Your Responsibilities

• You lead and scale FINN’s compound operations team, building a clear strategy and driving operational excellence across inflight and defleeting processes.
• You establish performance management and key metrics, making sure every car is delivered on time while controlling core cost drivers.
• You drive cross-functional strategic initiatives that shape the future of FINN’s physical footprint and unlock the next wave of company growth.
• You build, mentor, and inspire a team of compound managers, creating an environment where bias for action and high operational standards thrive.

• Your background in business, engineering, logistics, or a related field has prepared you to tackle complex challenges. We value hands-on experience just as much as academic credentials.
