Finance assistant at Design School Kolding

Designskolen Kolding is seeking a financial assistant for a versatile position with duties within accounting and project economics. The position includes both ongoing financial tasks and the opportunity to contribute to the development of systems and workflows.

About the position

You will become part of Finance and Project Administration and have a varied daily life with both independent tasks and close collaboration across the finance function. The specific content of the tasks will be adapted to your skills and experience.

We are facing several development projects, including the implementation of a new travel settlement system and upgrading from Navision Stat to Business Central. An interest in financial systems, digitization, and process optimization is therefore an advantage, but not a requirement.

Your main tasks

• Monthly closings and reconciliations
• Invoicing and ongoing bookkeeping
• Project economics
• Budgeting and budget follow-up
• Reporting and financial analyses
• Development and optimization of financial systems and workflows
• Ad hoc tasks across the finance function

Experience and education

We are looking for someone with a relevant education in economics, accounting or administration. You may be a recent graduate or have experience from a finance function, the auditing industry or similar. The crucial thing is that your education or experience together provide a solid foundation for solving financial tasks in practice.

We envision that you

• work in a structured, detail-oriented and quality-conscious way
• have an understanding of financial contexts
• thrive with both operational tasks and development tasks
• are curious about systems and digital workflows
• work well with different professions
• are independent, responsible and service-minded

We offer

• A versatile position with freedom under responsibility
• Opportunity to shape the tasks in line with your competences
• A strong professional environment with good opportunities for sparring and development
• Flexible working hours with the possibility of home working
• An informal work community focusing on collaboration, trust and well-being

In Finance and Project Administration we are around 10 colleagues who work with payroll, bookkeeping, controlling, management support, project economy and fundraising. We help each other across disciplines and emphasize joint task solving and professional sparring.

As a smaller educational institution, we have short decision paths and good opportunities to develop and implement new ideas.

The position reports to the Chief Financial Officer.

Terms of employment and application

This is a permanent position of 37 hours per week. The position is available from December 1 or as soon as possible and we are therefore conducting interviews on an ongoing basis.

Send your application, CV and exam papers via the indicated link no later than October 19.

Please note that we do not process applications received by email.

Salary and terms of employment are set according to the applicable collective agreement. Employment can be under the AC agreement or the HK agreement depending on your educational background and qualifications.
