You will work with accounting and reporting while contributing to building a strong financial foundation, creating structure, and supporting the continued development of the finance function.  

You will report directly to the CFO and work closely with the finance team, gradually taking on more responsibility as you develop in the role. Your responsibilities will include supporting monthly, quarterly, and annual closing processes, assisting in the preparation of financial statements, and contributing to the overall quality of reporting. 

You will also be introduced to working with subsidiaries and group structures, gaining an understanding of financial processes across entities. Over time, you will develop competencies within controlling and financial analysis. In addition, you will contribute to improving and optimizing processes within the finance function, including working with systems and data to create better structure and transparency. 

International collaboration and development

In this newly created position, you will have a unique opportunity to influence both the scope of the role and the development of the finance function. The position involves close collaboration across countries and functions, requiring the ability to navigate different market dynamics, including cross-border trade and VAT matters. You can expect a workday with international interaction and approximately 20–30 travel days annually.

You have a solid understanding of accounting principles and a natural interest in working with numbers, structure, and data. Strong IT skills and curiosity towards systems and digital tools are essential. 

Experience from a production company is an advantage but not a requirement.
