Do you have a few years of experience in controlling and are ready for something new? Are you also engaged, communicative, and motivated by taking responsibility? Then this is the job for you!

Your Role

As a controller, you will be part of our controlling team of 13 people. You will be part of our reporting team and work independently in your role, but also collaborate with your closest colleagues and other departments.

Your main tasks will include:

• Ongoing reporting, monitoring, and analysis of key performance indicators.
• Responsibility for our project controlling. You will work closely with our project organization, validate business cases, support our project managers, and conduct training sessions.
• Participate in monthly closings.
• Responsible for updating and streamlining our standardized reports by focusing on improvement measures, such as finding new technical solutions and driving the digitization of our processes.

You will report to the team leader of the reporting department.

Your Profile

We are looking for someone who has a completed university degree in economics, IT, or equivalent and has a few years of experience in controlling. Furthermore, we believe you will thrive and succeed with us if you:

• Are curious and have strong analytical skills.
• Are motivated to take responsibility and drive development by streamlining, structuring, and improving our processes.
• Have an interest and competence in handling large data sets and are a very experienced user of Google Sheets or Excel.

We Offer

For us, it is important that our employees thrive - in every way. Therefore, we offer a job in an environment characterized by our core values: performance, respect, trust, down-to-earth attitude, and community. As we grow, you can grow. Quickly. Within your role or towards another. In the same place or somewhere else. In stores, warehouses, or offices. Locally, nationally, or globally. We support you on your journey towards more responsibility and new challenges.

You will be part of a large team where everyone rolls up their sleeves and helps each other. Sometimes you will find us at our state-of-the-art headquarters, where we have access to a gym and great discounted prices in the restaurant. But of course, we are also a flexible workplace with the opportunity for hybrid work. You will receive everything from wellness grants, parental leave supplements, and employee discounts in our stores to free counseling from psychologists, lawyers, and economists, as well as numerous offers through our benefits portal. Of course, you will also be covered by a collective agreement and occupational pension. We enable fair wage setting within the company through a non-discriminatory wage system.
