Finance & Operations Officer Biologics; M​/F

The role

We are looking for a hands‑on Finance Officer to join the Plan‑les‑Ouates team and work directly alongside the CFO of Substipharm Biologics. The role is a key support function in a growing, multi‑country environment, combining controlling, finance operations, and contract execution responsibilities.

The position covers two complementary scopes:

• Substipharm Biologics (approx. 70–80% of the time): support to the CFO across all financial and operational matters of the international Biologics activity.
• Swiss commercial entity (approx. 20–30% of the time): operational interface between the French headquarters and the local Swiss entity, ensuring smooth day‑to‑day coordination from October 2026 onwards.

You will report to the CFO Biologics, with a functional reporting line to the Group HR / Finance teams in France for the Swiss entity scope.

• Monitor product performance, margins, volumes and inventory dynamics across the Biologics portfolio.
• Support the CFO in day‑to‑day finance: cash monitoring, payment follow‑up, accounts payable / receivable tracking, customer payment collection.
• Perform multi‑country bank reconciliations (Switzerland, Thailand, Vietnam) and inter‑company flow tracking.
• Prepare month‑end and year‑end closings in coordination with local fiduciaries and accounting firms.
• Run ad hoc financial analyses, internal reviews and reporting materials supporting management decisions.

• Take ownership of the operational execution of complex commercial agreements: read and understand the contractual terms, translate them into recurring operational tasks (re‑invoicing, FX adjustments, performance tracking, contractual obligations).
• Act as a central coordination point between supply chain, finance and business development teams to ensure smooth contract delivery.
• Flag deviations, risks and opportunities to the CFO; suggest operational improvements.

• Contribute to the operational set‑up of new flows linked to international expansion (Europe, US).
• Manage inter‑company flows across the Group entities and ensure consistency of data, reporting and processes.
• Manage external service providers (fiduciaries, accounting firms, local consultants) across the different geographies, including senior, long‑tenured providers.
• Ensure efficient project cost control.

• Act as the privileged contact between Substipharm Group HQ in France and the new Swiss entity.
• Manage incoming mail and administrative documents (sorting, dispatching, follow‑up with the local fiduciary, follow‑up with the local distributor).
• Handle order processing and manual invoicing in the early phase before a system is rolled out.
• Ensure consistent execution of local processes and proper coordination with the Swiss fiduciary, suppliers and partners.
• Support the gradual structuring of the Swiss organization as activity ramps up.

• A high‑impact, transversal position with direct exposure to the CFO and Group leadership.
• A real opportunity to shape and structure a growing international finance function.
• A pragmatic, agile environment where ownership and initiative are expected and rewarded.
• Exposure to multiple geographies (Switzerland, France, Thailand, Vietnam) and to a wide range of finance, operational and contractual topics.

• Location: Plan‑les‑Ouates, Geneva area (Switzerland).
• Cross‑border commute (“frontalier”): candidates based in or willing to relocate to the French border area (Annemasse, Saint‑Julien‑en‑Genevois, Annecy, etc.) are very welcome.
• On‑site presence: 4 days per week on the Plan‑les‑Ouates site.
• Target start date: early July or September 2026.

• Master’s degree in Finance, Business or equivalent.
• 4 to 7 years of relevant experience in financial controlling, business controlling, finance operations or a similar transversal finance role.
• Strong analytical skills and Excel mastery; comfortable reading complex commercial contracts and translating them into operational execution.
• Genuinely hands‑on mindset: as comfortable running an analysis as handling reconciliations, checking supplier invoices, dispatching mail or following up on day‑to‑day operational topics.
• Capable of holding their ground when interacting with experienced external providers and senior local partners.
• Multi‑entity / inter‑company experience appreciated.
• Business curiosity: you understand that good finance work cannot be disconnected from understanding the business.
• Fluent in French and English (English is the working language across the Biologics scope).
• Autonomous, structured, entrepreneurial and at ease in a fast‑paced, lean and unstructured environment.
