Scope

Interim Director of Finance, Interim Senior Accountant, Interim Head of Treasury

Challenge

Leadership changes and staffing shortages in the finance team.

There was a change in leadership, and staffing shortages on the finance team had to be addressed. Essential routine tasks had to continue seamlessly. The tight deadlines for the Nexi Group’s monthly closing—5 business days—had to be met. Oversight of the annual financial statements and the financial audit was required. Ongoing strategic projects, such as ABS financing and contract renegotiations, had to continue to move forward.‍

Solution

Seamless transition and continuation of all financial processes.

Rapid onboarding and integration of interim experts in the areas of financial management, accounting, and treasury. Seamless transition to the existing, well-structured monthly closing process without interruptions. Active coordination with internal and external stakeholders to maintain business continuity. Practical implementation of key projects (e.g., setting up SPVs/ABSs, preparing for audits) with minimal handover time. Leading the team until a permanent employee is hired.

Impact

No interruptions—full compliance.

There were no disruptions to business-critical financial processes. Monthly closing deadlines were consistently met, and the annual audit was completed on schedule. Strategic initiatives, such as the introduction of ABS financing, were successfully implemented. The finance function remained stable until new full-time employees were hired.
