What your day as a Marketing Controller might look like

  • You may start your day with a coffee, tea or whatever you like to drink and check your inbox
  • Use the dashboards and reports to get an overview of the current status quo of marketing activities and see if you can identify areas where we are losing direction
  • Lunch break. Grab a bite to eat at home with your SO or maybe gather some team members and colleagues and explore the restaurants around the office?
  • For your regular meeting with the marketing manager, prepare your questions and recommendations
  • After the preparations, you attend the daily meeting with the Data & Insight team, exchange information about your current projects and tasks and make some small talk
  • Usually, directly afterwards, you participate in some scheduled meetings with your stakeholders or you conduct an analysis to understand the current marketing situation and find potential for growth or optimisation
  • Still in the office? Maybe grab a complimentary drink on the roof terrace before you head home? And remember: we don't believe in working until the middle of the night

Accounts Receivable

Not only is the personal interaction, the working atmosphere and the mindset in the department great, I also really enjoy the work itself. Here, tasks are not just dully processed, but contexts and backgrounds are also explained. Thanks to the participation in the monthly closing, there is always variety of tasks. As a debtor, I can also get a taste of balance sheet accounting here - very interesting for me personally.  Cross-departmental work is a daily occurrence here and I'm never stuck in a bubble. There are often projects, for example, to optimise processes or to improve cooperation with other departments. So I always have the opportunity to get involved and can actively shape processes and structures. Many of my colleagues have become friends and I simply feel comfortable.

Controller

At the end of 2021, I started as a Controller at Trusted Shops after graduating from university. In addition to extensive onboarding, my first goal-oriented projects and activities helped me to familiarise myself with the corporate culture and the job of a controller. For example, I was able to participate in the relaunch of the Smart Goal tracking, in which the Smart Goals of our units are consolidated on a monthly basis. This immediately gave me a comprehensive insight into the company and a feeling for the world of figures in a SaaS company. Thanks to the trust placed in me by the team and the immediate involvement in controlling topics, I was able to acquire new skills in the areas of IT systems, reporting, planning and proactive communication with various stakeholders within a short period of time. As part of the reorientation in Controlling, in which we work together on projects despite the newly created teams (Business Unit Controlling & Corporate Controlling) and maintain a very close exchange, I now have the position of Business Unit Controller. I am available to the business units I supervise as a sparring partner for month-end closing, ad-hoc requests, setting up cost analyses and other topics.As an employee in controlling and especially as a business unit controller, I look forward to accompanying the journey and development of the units and thus contributing to the significant success of Trusted Shops.
