The Performance & Steering (P&S) team sits within Allianz Benelux’s Finance Department, and is responsible for analysing & interpreting the various KPIs needed to steer Allianz’s business lines in the Benelux region. As such, we are a key business partner for all users of these figures, engaging with stakeholders including regional Board members such as CEO and CFO, likewise with the Chief Investment Officer, Chief Product Officer, Chief Risk Officer and our Group headquarters in Munich. This role sits within the Life Performance & Steering team, which together with similar teams for P&C, Cost, and Consolidation comprises the broader P&S team.

You must be comfortable articulating & explaining the differences in balance sheet and P&L between the various applicable accounting norms (IFRS17, Solvency II, local GAAP) and understand the business implications of the accounting choices taken. Excellent communication skills are a must-have, as you will need to build & maintain strong relationships with colleagues from outside of Finance. You will have the opportunity to present financial results and the outcome of analysis to a senior (CFO / Group) audience. In addition, you will need to drive the continuous refinement / automation / simplification of the various reporting processes in your scope.

We have a strong focus on internal mobility within the Allianz Group. Current/recent Finance colleagues have worked for Allianz entities in Munich, Singapore, and Paris amongst other locations. You will interact directly with Board-level stakeholders, giving you the chance to showcase your work and your abilities.
