Test Your Purpose We are looking for a highly structured and proactive Finance Senior Manager to oversee and coordinate MSC Cruises' Group crew expenses. Functionally reporting to the Finance Controller of the Crew Employer, the role is based in Italy, where the Crew Employer has a service provider. The role will act as a key link between FP&A;, Crew Management, Operations, HR, and other relevant teams, ensuring that crew cost dynamics are properly understood, challenged, monitored, and translated into robust budget assumptions, actionable performance insights, and clear governance routines. Your Impact Crew Cost Monitoring & Cross-Team Coordination Coordinate the end-to-end monitoring of Group crew expenses, ensuring consistent visibility across key cost drivers, entities, ships, and operational areas. Act as the finance point of contact for crew cost topics, integrating inputs from Italy-based teams, Malta-based activities, and Group functions, while ensuring alignment with FP&A; standards. Connect operational dynamics with financial impacts,
clearly explaining cause-effect relationships behind cost movements, variances, and emerging trends. Build effective relationships across Finance, Crew Management, HR, Operations, Procurement, and other stakeholders to ensure timely information flow and issue resolution. Promote accountability and coordination across teams, ensuring that assumptions, actions, and ownership are clearly defined and followed up. Budgeting, Forecasting & Business Challenge Support the definition, validation, and challenge of crew cost budget and forecast assumptions, ensuring assumptions are evidence-based, consistent, and aligned with operational plans. Analyze variances versus budget, forecast, and prior year, identifying the underlying drivers rather than only reporting financial deviations. Work closely with stakeholders to challenge cost evolution, headcount assumptions, rotations, contractual impacts, productivity trends, and one-off effects.
