• Partner with Business Unit leaders, executives, and commercial teams to surface operational and revenue insights
• Monitor regulatory developments and model their commercial implications for Eurofins' U.S. food testing portfolio
• Develop business cases, market entry assessments, and investment memos that hold up under executive scrutiny

• 5-8 years of professional experience, with at least 2–3 years in strategy consulting or corporate strategy
• MBA preferred; strong candidates without an MBA, who are pre-MBA are equally welcome
• Exceptional financial modeling skills: clean, auditable, built to be handed off
• Experience in food, agriculture, life sciences, or a similarly regulated industry is a strong plus
• Able to synthesize complex data into clear executive narrative in writing and in the room
• Comfortable in a decentralized, matrixed organization where influence matters more than hierarchy
