Accountant at Malmö Arena and Malmö Arena Hotel

Malmö Arena is centrally located in the expanding Öresund region of Hyllie. Our operations are diverse, catering to various focuses within sports, entertainment, and food. We offer top-notch events of all kinds, and with us, you can arrange conferences, congresses, fairs, exhibitions, mingles, and parties.

Are you a meticulous and dedicated accountant who thrives on responsibility and wants to work in an exciting and dynamic environment? We are now looking for an accountant to join our team at Malmö Arena and Malmö Arena Hotel! The position is a permanent full-time employment with an initial probationary period. Start date as soon as possible.

About the role

As an accountant with us, you will be a key player in the finance department, responsible for ongoing bookkeeping, financial reporting, and analysis. You will primarily work with Malmö Arena Hotel but will also be involved in the financial work for Parkfast Arena (the operating company at Malmö Arena).

Your responsibilities include:

Ongoing bookkeeping, accounts payable and receivable, and bank reconciliations
Monthly, quarterly, and annual financial closings
VAT reporting, tax declarations, and AGI reporting
Budget monitoring and analysis of deviations
Support during audits and work on improving internal routines
Participation in internal meetings and financial special projects

Who are you?

We are looking for someone who has:

A university degree or vocational training in finance/accounting
At least 2–5 years of experience in similar tasks within the hotel industry
Good knowledge of accounting and business systems (e.g., Visma or Fortnox)
Excellent skills in Excel
Fluent Swedish in speech and writing; English is a plus

As a person, you are meticulous and structured, with an eye for detail and the ability to work systematically to ensure accurate financial reports. You have an analytical ability that allows you to interpret numbers, identify deviations, and understand financial relationships. Being responsible and having a high ethical awareness is a given for you, as you work with sensitive financial information and understand the importance of maintaining high integrity.

You enjoy solving problems and have a solution-oriented approach when challenges arise in accounting. Since you often communicate financial information to people without a financial background, you have a pedagogical and clear communication style. You work independently and take your own initiatives, but you also collaborate easily with colleagues and other stakeholders. Additionally, you are flexible and can handle varying workloads and strict deadlines without compromising the quality of your work.
