About Sanofi:
We’re an R&D-driven, AI-powered biopharma company committed to improving people’s lives and delivering compelling growth. Our deep understanding of the immune system – and innovative pipeline – enables us to invent medicines and vaccines that treat and protect millions of people around the world. Together, we chase the miracles of science to improve people’s lives.
Our Team:
The Middle Office & Financial Instruments Accounting (MO&FIA) team belongs to the Financial Risks & Markets (FRM) department, that within Financing, Treasury & Insurance manages Sanofi’s exposures to market risks, mainly liquidity, interest rate, foreign exchange, equity & counterparty risks.
Together with MO&FIA, FRM comprises two other teams:
- Capital Markets (CM), in charge of Debt, Sanofi own share management, Strategic funding, Equity capital markets support and Bank relationship monitoring
- Front Office (FO) that pilots day-to-day liquidity & transacts external hedging instruments (holding)
Main responsibilities:
As an Analyst Middle-Office & Financial Instruments Accounting, you will:
- Drive optimization of cash positions and transactions while actively monitoring risk levels
- Lead cash management strategies that align with local regulations, market requirements, and Group treasury policies
- Safeguard financial assets and ensure transaction security
- Analyze and manage liquidity, currency, and interest rate risks in collaboration with Corporate Treasury
- Build and maintain strong partnerships with internal stakeholders across departments and Finance functions
- Develop and nurture relationships with banks and external treasury partners
Middle Office:
- Follow-up of centralized operating Foreign Exchange (FX) exposures (budget & actuals) of ≈100 affiliates in 25 countries & 40 currencies, representing around € 12 bn. P&L exposure per year (and creating a high sensitivity of Group operating income to FX fluctuations)
- Review of centralized financing & investing FX exposures driven by investments, divestments & internal restructurings: capital increases/decreases, dividends, transfers of shares or intangible assets, loans & borrowings
- The MO is in charge of controlling these exposures and transmitting them to FO for external hedging, as well as granting internal hedges to the exposed affiliates, in line with Group policy & procedures. The MO checks that as a result FX positions are balanced
- Maintenance & control of the FX rates database (budget, trend, booking rates)
- Fair valuation of derivative instruments for accounting purpose
- Analytical review of actual consolidated FX gains & losses as well as net financial result
Financial Instruments Accounting:
- Sanofi holding financial instruments (cash investments, financial debt, derivatives) accounting (IFRS, French Gaap & French tax rules). This activity covers day-to-day accounting (in the SAP-TRM Treasury Management System auxiliary ledger and through Manual Journal Entries) and month-end closings for a high volumetry of instruments (to illustrate: currently € 10 to 15 bn. outstanding cash investments, € 20 bn. outstanding financial debt, € 100 to 150 bn. external FX derivatives dealt per year) representing a critical stake in terms of accuracy & completeness of Group financial reporting
- Documentation of hedging relationships
- Drafting of notes to consolidated financial statements and to Sanofi holding statutory accounts related to financial instruments

- Team working spirit
- Pragmatism and organization skills in order to meet tight deadlines (anticipation & pro-activity)
- Strong interpersonal skills due to the permanent interactions with multiple stakeholders with the treasury & accounting communities
