Vacant job

Do you want a key role in a growing finance team where you work closely with the business and contribute with sharp analyses and decision support that actually makes a difference?

We are now looking for a Financial Controller with strong analytical skills, very good Excel proficiency, and a genuine interest in understanding, questioning, and developing numbers, processes, and ways of working.

About the Role

You will become part of our finance team, which currently consists of six people – four working broadly with accounting and one focused on group accounting. We are now strengthening the team with a Financial Controller who can take a holistic approach to analysis, follow-up, and financial reporting.

The role is new, which means an opportunity to help shape working methods and structure from the ground up. You will gain a group-wide perspective in an organization with approximately 30 companies and a broad business mix, with a focus on production and sales.

A large part of the work will involve compiling and quality-assuring data, as well as maintaining and further developing existing reports. At the same time, you are expected to create new reports and analytical tools that provide the business with better decision support moving forward.

You will work closely with the CFO and have ongoing dialogue with business managers and other key figures in the organization. Since the role is new, we are looking for someone with strong drive and engagement – someone who is curious to understand both the organization and the business.

Your responsibilities will include, among other things:

• working with profit and cost follow-up for several companies in the group
• analyzing actual results against budget and forecast, and identifying and explaining variances
• producing, developing reports, key performance indicators, and decision support materials
• building and further developing reporting
• quality-assuring data and handling and analyzing large datasets
• supporting the budgeting and forecasting process
• contributing to streamlining and improving processes within follow-up and reporting

We are looking for you who have a mindset where everything can be improved. You combine curiosity and analytical sharpness with high accuracy and a drive to create smooth and sustainable processes that lead the business forward.

We believe you have

• relevant education in economics (e.g., Master of Science in Business and Economics)
• a few years of experience in controlling, accounting, or analysis
• very good ability to work with numbers, results, and financial follow-up
• very good knowledge of Excel and confidence in working with advanced functions and large datasets
• experience presenting and pedagogically explaining economic analyses to different audiences

Merits

• experience with BI tools (e.g., Power BI)
• experience with ERP systems
• experience working with budgets, forecasts, and reporting packages

Personal qualities

To thrive with us, we believe you are:

• detail-oriented and structured
• analytical and solution-oriented
• self-motivated with good prioritization skills
• curious and driven by improvement work

We offer

• a role with significant impact and close collaboration with the CFO, management, and operations
• the opportunity to develop and streamline working methods and reporting in a group environment
• a dedicated and cohesive finance team with high ambitions
