Company description

With more than 8,000 employees, Deloitte is one of the largest consulting and audit firms in the Nordic region. We help our clients navigate complex technology and business transformations by combining deep professional knowledge with leading competencies in auditing, tax, advisory and consulting services.

In Assurance Offerings, we work with our clients' finance departments on accounting, reporting and day-to-day financial management. When there are capacity constraints or a need to strengthen reporting and controls, we step in together with the client’s employees. We contribute with experience and take responsibility for ensuring the work is completed.

You will have colleagues with experience from finance functions, audit and advisory who share knowledge and brainstorm about the professional challenges we encounter with our clients.

Position description

As an Assistant Manager or Manager in CFO Services you help companies ensure stable operations and develop their finance function. Your tasks range from interim roles where you step in during capacity constraints or vacant key positions, to defined CFO Service assignments within process optimization, system implementation and accounting advisory.

You quickly familiarise yourself with the client’s organisation, gain an overview of processes and priorities, and take responsibility for the deliverables that are central to the task. This can include month-end and year-end close, controlling and management reporting or improving processes and internal controls.

You work closely with the client’s CFO, finance management and other key stakeholders. You will have the opportunity to lead project teams and contribute to the development of less experienced colleagues through professional sparring and feedback. As a coach you also spar with your less experienced colleagues about their professional development and career development.

Leave your mark on tasks such as

• Take responsibility for critical deliveries in the finance function, including month-end and year-end close, accounting, controlling and management reporting.
• Create an overview, prioritise efforts and coordinate the work with the client’s finance team and other stakeholders.
• Act as sparring partner for CFOs, finance leadership and other key stakeholders on financial issues and improvement initiatives.
• Strengthen processes, controls and audit readiness through well-documented reconciliations, clear workflows and collaboration with internal and external stakeholders.
• Identify and implement improvements to closing and reporting processes with a focus on efficiency, quality and timeliness.
• Ensure transfer and anchoring of processes, knowledge and areas of responsibility in the client's organisation.
• Lead project teams and develop less experienced colleagues through task management, professional sparring and feedback.
• Be a coach for less experienced colleagues and spar with them about their professional and career development.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone with solid experience in accounting and day-to-day operations in a finance department. You can quickly understand new situations, tackle challenging tasks and still keep an overview of deadlines and quality. You are comfortable discussing professional questions and priorities directly with the client’s finance leadership.

You contribute the following to the team

• Minimum six years of relevant experience, for example as finance manager, financial controller, auditor, accounting manager or consultant.
• Relevant education in economics, accounting, finance, auditing or a related field.
• Solid practical experience with accounting, reporting, month- and year-end close, controlling or similar financial processes.
• Experience taking professional responsibility, prioritising tasks under time pressure and ensuring quality of work performed by others.
• Ability to quickly understand new systems and collaborate with different teams. You speak and write Danish at a level where you can work with clients and other stakeholders

Even if you do not immediately recognise yourself in all the described qualifications, we encourage you to apply if you believe your experience can contribute to the team.
