As a controller in our cross-functional team, you will work with all types of accounting tasks across the sections, including internal controls and handling a number of fixed tasks in e.g. the master data section.

You will solve tasks as needs arise. This can be in connection with a parental leave replacement, holidays, illness or peak periods, e.g. month-end closing. The period of task execution can be short or long, which is why it is a condition that you thrive on change and are not afraid to dive into new areas with short notice.

It is important that you have an analytical and structured approach to work. In addition, it is expected that you possess a high level of professional competence, a holistic view, good communication skills, and are not afraid to tackle both reporting tasks, reconciliations, and ad hoc tasks.

We imagine that you have a relevant accounting and theoretical background as a financial controller or HD(R).
