Manager of Logistics & Director of Finance both report to CFO Canada. But I don’t really see anyone move to Finance from Logistics department.
I’m the key user of CO in Canada. To be honest, I don’t know what’s going on with SD & MM in Logistics as long as FI CO PCA & PA balance. Billing, inventory adjustment, currency differences, transfer pricing, those transactions initiated by Logistics are largely designed and controlled by Head office in Europe. Finance team in Canada does costing (gross margin & profitability analysis) using PA instead of SD or MM reporting.
Your experience and skills are still very valuable though. Working with Marketing & Sales department is especially important. They are usually the core team for business decision.
