RESPONSIBILITIES

So, what does a Controller do for us? The role of Controller is a lovely mix of strategic and operational work. One moment you dive into the details, the next you lift your gaze to see the entire operation. In this role, you work with budgets and ongoing follow-up, forecasting and analysis, as well as interim reports/annual accounts and activity reports. You also have coordination responsibility for specific cross-administrative issues. Your work is proactive, contributing to the efficiency of various processes and increasing forecast accuracy.

As a Controller, you need to bring out the detective within you. You ensure the quality of the financial basis, identify deviations, and provide wise suggestions on how to handle them. You drive the analysis work forward and are an important voice in our continuous improvement efforts. Sometimes you work independently with significant personal responsibility, and sometimes together with others; both aspects are equally important.

Here, you work closely with other Controllers, our accounting economist, and accounting assistant. We are people who enjoy bouncing ideas off each other, sharing experiences, and laughing together between tasks. Together, you work for structured and correct financial processes and act as representatives in financial management. You will also present to the management group and committees.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for you who have completed a university or college degree in economics. You have documented experience working as a Controller. Experience working in a politically governed organization is preferred, and municipal experience is a plus. Experience from social services work areas is meritorious but not a requirement.

You have good IT skills and are accustomed to working in financial systems. You have good knowledge of the Office suite, with a focus on Excel. Experience with the financial system Raindance and/or the decision support system Hypergene is a merit. You have very good verbal and written skills in Swedish.

The role of Controller presupposes an independent and structured working method where you have the ability to drive several processes simultaneously. You have analytical and solution-oriented skills. You enjoy delving into tasks but can also see the bigger picture. As a person, you are communicative and pedagogical, as you will need to convey and explain financial reports to both managers and elected officials. You have good collaboration skills and enjoy talking to different people. You need to be interested in the connection between operations and finance. We place great emphasis on personal suitability for the position.

We interview continuously for this position, so submit your application today!
