Within the commercially-geared Management Training Scheme you will become familiar, for instance, with the following areas of competence and will assume responsibility for work on practical assignments and projects in:
Financial Accounting
In order to make a viable contribution to the finance and accounting of a complex, internationally-oriented company it is important to understand basic related issues and to acquire the relevant detailed knowledge. The best chance to do this is to work in the accounts payable, accounts receivable, bank and fixed-asset accounting departments. Here you will acquire the knowledge upon which you can build in later work. Of course this also includes active work on monthly and annual financial statements.
Accounting/Cost Accounting
This is where all the reins of management control come together. And in a small to medium-sized company with a lean, process-oriented organisation you will be working closely with company management. You will, for example, be responsible for the cost accounting of one or more subsidiaries in which corporate planning or group consolidation play a part. You will independently prepare managerial analyses and take on special projects.
Finance
The flow of international finance is centrally controlled in the Finance Division. Here you will be involved in day-to-day banking operations, the monitoring of subsidiaries' bank accounts, foreign exchange management based on derivative financial instruments, covering accounts receivable by means of credit sale insurance or clean credit, and will gain insights into our insurance portfolio and leasing procedures. The spectrum of duties also includes independent work on treasury projects.
Strategic Purchasing
Purchasing in a technology company naturally has a very strong engineering bias. So as well as commercially-oriented jobs such as contract negotiation and conclusion, priority is given to supplier selection and appraisal based on the relevant audits. An additional key factor is collaboration in our development teams, so that stress can be laid on purchasing input even at an early stage of product development. Here you will be responsible for a defined material group in the full spectrum of duties specified.
