Economics student assistant

Socialtilsyn Hovedstaden seeks an economics student assistant with accounting understanding and a flair for data

Have you followed the public debate about the economy in the specialized social sector, and do you think it could be exciting to contribute to further developing Socialtilsynet's tools for the financial supervision of the social offers? If so, you might be the one we are looking for.

Starting as soon as possible.

The financial supervision of the offers covered by the Social Supervisory Act is rapidly developing, and the task is complex and requires insight into and understanding of the budgets and accounts of social offers. Socialtilsynet's financial supervision must be strengthened further in the coming period, and we are looking for someone who wants to combine study with a job of great meaning.

We are seeking a student assistant who gets excited at the thought of using his/her knowledge and Excel skills to present data in relevant ways and to analyze numbers from the annual budgets and accounting figures of the social offers.

Responsibilities include, among others

• Registration and filing of the offers' submitted budgets, annual reports and audit protocols, etc.
• Screening and overall review of the offers' financial conditions
• Development of Socialtilsynet's screening methods and screening tools, including, for example, coding macros in Excel spreadsheets and the implementation of tools for financial risk categorization of offers.
• Answering inquiries in Socialtilsynet's main phone line and in the main mailbox

About you as a candidate

You are a student and have completed the first year of a higher education program in economics – for example, HA Almen, Mathematics, Stud. Polit., Finance or similar. In addition, you have superb Excel skills and approach your work in a structured way.

You have an interest in the social sector, but not necessarily a deeper insight into the supported housing area. It would be advantageous if an annual financial statement is not completely unfamiliar to you, and if you are generally motivated by analyzing numbers and development in key figures. You must be able to work about 15 hours per week, as it fits with your study schedule.

We offer

We can offer you a meaningful student job where you can help develop and strengthen the financial supervision and ensure that the supervision is conducted in a systematic and consistent manner. The area enjoys strong political attention and is highly complex. You will experience both professional challenges and being equipped to handle this important task. The student assistant job is placed in our small finance team, consisting of 7 financial consultants with diverse professional backgrounds.

The overall mood is usually very high, even when we are busy, and the collegial sparring is very good. You will have a large degree of influence over the placement of your working hours to fit your studies.

Working hours will be 15 hours per week with a flex-time arrangement. Salary according to the rates for municipal employed students.

The position is temporary for one year with the possibility of extension.
