R&D Associate Director Finance & Controlling

Location: Basel (Switzerland)

Today, Lonza is a global leader in life sciences operating across five continents. Our greatest scientific solution is talented people working together, devising ideas that help businesses to help people. In exchange, we let our people own their careers, and their ideas genuinely improve the world.

You will be responsible for ensuring the financial integrity and strategic alignment of R&D investments across all divisions. This role exists to create a standardized approach to evaluating the Net Present Value (NPV) of R&D projects, driving consistency and accuracy in financial assessments. By providing a centralized framework, you will help streamline processes, reduce duplication, and uncover commonalities between divisions, ultimately contributing to cost optimization and efficient resource allocation.

You will work closely with the R&D team, divisional leaders, and the corporate finance team to ensure that R&D investments align with both divisional and company goals. This role includes offering expert financial analysis of the portfolio and supporting the development of arguments for new initiatives. You will play a key role in driving cost efficiency while maintaining a deep focus on value creation through specialized and consistent financial insights.

What you’ll do:

  • Standardize NPV & risk assessment Methodology: Implement and maintain a uniform Net Present Value (NPV) assessment methodology for R&D projects across all divisions, ensuring consistency in financial evaluations.
  • Support R&D Decision-Making: Provide expert financial analysis and insight to support informed decision-making on R&D investments, aligning with both divisional and corporate strategic goals.
  • Cost Optimization Initiatives: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify and support cost optimization initiatives, driving efficiencies in R&D processes and spending.
  • Case Development: Assist in building comprehensive arguments for new projects and opportunities, including financial analysis, risk assessment, and strategic alignment. Monitor and report R&D performance by building and maintaining financial models to track the performance of R&D investments, delivering regular reports and insights to senior management and divisional heads.
  • Champion Cross-Division Collaboration: Identify commonalities and opportunities for collaboration across divisions, using shared resources and knowledge to enhance value creation. Ensure strategic alignment by evaluating R&D investments within the broader context of divisional and company goals.
  • Improve Financial Processes: Lead efforts to streamline financial processes related to R&D, reducing administrative burden and enhancing the efficiency of reporting and analysis.
  • Expert Advisory Role: Act as the key financial advisor to R&D leadership, providing specialized insights and recommendations for optimizing project portfolios and capital allocation.

What we’re looking for:

  • Bachelor to Master degree or equivalent experience in Accounting / Finance / Economics.
  • Proven experience in financial modeling: Strong expertise in developing and applying financial models, including NPV, ROI, and other project evaluation tools.
  • Experience in financial modeling for R&D or similar environments is essential.
  • Demonstrated experience in a financial controlling or project evaluation role, preferably within R&D, innovation, or a related sector.
  • Ability to interpret complex data sets, provide in-depth analysis, and deliver actionable insights to support decision-making at both divisional and corporate levels.
  • Strong problem-solving capabilities and the ability to manage uncertainties in a dynamic, fast-paced R&D environment.
  • Fluency in English.

Inclusion is one of Lonza’s four core values, alongside integrity, innovation, and initiative. We understand the value of our differences and the benefits they bring to our company, community, and culture.

Every day, Lonza’s products and services have a positive impact on millions of people, and we respect and protect our people and our environment.
