The team
The Revenue Performance Organization in Controllership is a dynamic, stakeholder and customer-oriented team in Finance that works with sales and services on customer contracts, statements of work (SOWs), orders, and structures and manages these deals from proposal through order to revenue recognition. We value business focus while ensuring that we meet compliance and revenue standards under IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards).
