Our client is an international mobility service provider currently in a phase of stabilization and development in the Hungarian market, with strong growth potential.

- Full P&L responsibility, including planning, cost optimization, and financing activities
- Managing relationships with external partners and service providers
- Developing and mentoring the local team (approx. 15 employees), including replacing key talent where needed
- Implementing international processes and standards, and reporting to the headquarters
Requirements
- Several years of leadership experience in business unit or sales operations management
- Experience in mobility, automotive, rental car, or operational leasing is a strong advantage
- Understanding of fleet-related processes (procurement, financing, remarketing)
- Proven track record in business development, operations, and financial management (P&L responsibility)
- Confident communication with financial partners and institutions
- Strong entrepreneurial mindset, proactivity, and results orientation
