Accounting Assistant for the Accounting Department, Simpleko

We are specialists in financial management for housing cooperatives, community associations, and property owners. With digital tools and personal service, we make it easier for the board to keep track of finances, make the right decisions, and plan for the long term. We have about 80 employees and are located in both Östersund and Uppsala. Our clients are spread across Sweden, totaling around 1,300, the majority of which are housing cooperatives.

About Simpleko

Simpleko is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Riksbyggen specializing in financial management. We provide services to approximately 1,300 clients – primarily housing cooperatives – throughout Sweden, and our delivery is entirely digital. In addition to financial management, we have been handling additional fees for public transport on behalf of SL (Stockholm Public Transport) for several years. We have about 75 employees distributed across two offices, one in Uppsala and one in Östersund.

Job Responsibilities

You will work with accounting and be part of a team of 15 people handling accounts payable and loan ledgers, account reconciliations, salaries/fees, and communication with clients, suppliers, banks, and more. Although we often work in a team and help each other with tasks, you are also expected to work independently as you will have your own client responsibilities and be the contact person for the boards of housing cooperatives.

You will have good opportunities to influence the business and contribute suggestions for improvements and developments. We always work proactively and closely with our clients. Everyone in the group is expected to participate in the ongoing development of our processes, routines, and system support.

Qualifications

It is an advantage if you have previous experience working with accounting, are a confident user of the Office suite, and have experience with various digital solutions. Our work is primarily digitalized, which means we conduct digital meetings and presentations via Microsoft Teams, both internally and externally.

You can express yourself well both verbally and in writing and can adapt your language to the situation and audience, as well as have the ability to understand the recipient's needs and wishes. You find it easy to communicate and collaborate with both clients and colleagues. It is important that you are a team player who enjoys working in a group and sees opportunities instead of obstacles. You are a structured administrator who is meticulous and thrives in a fast-paced environment. Personality is a significant factor.

You can uphold our cornerstones: Trust, Cooperation, Engagement, and Accountability.

We are looking for someone who enjoys working in a dynamic environment and is willing to take on various tasks and responsibilities. If you are a self-driven person with a strong work ethic and a passion for both accounting and customer service, you are the person we are looking for!
