Accounting-savvy project manager for digital financial solutions

Do you want to be the link in the cross-field between accounting, compliance and system development?

Do you have solid accounting expertise, and are you motivated by driving complex tasks across disciplines? Can you translate requirements into clear priorities and create momentum for both business and development?

Then you might be the accounting-savvy project manager we are looking for in Økonomisystemer at SEGES Innovation.

About the job

In Økonomisystemer we develop, operate and manage the digital accounting and financial solutions Ø90 and InterCount. The solutions are used by DLBR companies and end customers – primarily farmers and other SMEs.

As an accounting-savvy project manager you will be responsible for driving cross-cutting tasks at the intersection of accounting expertise, compliance and system development. You will bring together subject-matter experts, Product Owners, development and operations teams, UX, support, external partners and key stakeholders around common goals and deliverables.

An important part of the job is to lead compliance tasks in the financial area, so Ø90 and InterCount continue to support applicable laws, regulatory requirements and users’ needs. You will familiarise yourself with requirements and consequences and translate them into well-defined tasks that the relevant development teams can prioritise and solve.

Your tasks will include, among others, to

• create an overview of deliverables, dependencies and stakeholders across teams and disciplines
• drive compliance tasks and ensure progress, clarification and clear accountability
• contribute to planning and roadmap together with Product Owners, domain leads and teams
• help to qualify and define tasks so they can be handed on to relevant development teams
• structure tasks and progress in Jira and create transparency for stakeholders
• prepare decision material, status reports and presentations that make complex topics easy to understand
• collaborate with subject-matter specialists on rules, practices and requirements in the financial area.

About you

We imagine that you have an economics/finance educational background and experience with accounting, financial processes or digital financial systems. You do not need to come from a classic IT role, but you should enjoy working closely with digital solutions and be able to bridge between professional fields, business and development.

You have experience with project management of complex cross-cutting tasks and thrive in bringing stakeholders together, making agreements and following deliverables through to completion.

We place emphasis on the fact that you

• have accounting insight and understanding of financial processes
• have experience with project management and facilitation of cross-cutting tasks
• can create structure, overview and momentum in complex sequences
• have an interest in compliance, legislation and requirements in the financial area
• communicate clearly and can convey complex topics simply and practically
• are good at collaborating, building relations and bringing others on board
• work diligently and have a sense for quality, deadlines and documentation.

It is an advantage if you have experience with agile ways of working, Jira, digital product teams or financial systems. The most important is, however, that you combine accounting expertise, structure and the desire to make things happen together with others.

About the team

You will become part of Økonomisystemer in SEGES Innovation, where we develop digital solutions for accounting, financial management and advisory services. The tasks have great significance for users, customers and the continued development of the area.

The team is characterized by high professionalism, close collaboration and many interfaces internally and externally.

You will have a role with a large level of contact, responsibility and the opportunity to influence how we create even better structure, quality and momentum in complex tasks.
