We are supporting a global, research-driven pharmaceutical company in hiring a Senior Network Business Specialist to join their international business operations team in Prague.

This role sits at the intersection of finance, internal services, and business decision-making.

Key responsibilities

• Manage and analyse budgets and forecasts for internal services
• Review cost trends, variances, and key cost drivers
• Support decision-making and prioritisation through scenario analysis
• Partner with service teams to improve cost transparency and planning
• Prepare insights and recommendations for senior stakeholders
• Identify risks, efficiencies, and optimisation opportunities

Who we are looking for

• Background in finance, controlling, FP&A, or business operations
• Experience partnering with stakeholders and supporting decisions
• Comfortable working in ambiguous, complex environments
• Strong analytical and communication skills
• Ability to think beyond numbers and understand business impact
• Experience in a regulated or international environment is an advantage.

👉 This is not an IT role – Technical knowledge of networks or infrastructure is not required.

• Initial 1-year employment contract with potential extension.
• Strong onboarding and exposure to senior stakeholders
• Competitive salary aligned with market experience
• 25 days of holiday, 5 sick days, meal vouchers, home office contribution, multisport contribution, annual bonus, laptop
