About the role

You will be part of our IP Compliance & Market Intelligence team where you will work closely with colleagues across the organisation as well as external auditing firms and licensees around the world.

What does the role involve?

As Financial Analyst & Controller, you will play an important role in ensuring that our licensees comply with the terms of their license agreements.

A key part of your role will be to prepare, structure and analyse information from licensee examinations, where third-party auditing firms review licensees' sales reporting, royalty payments and compliance with our license agreements. You will work with large and complex Excel files, sales data, product information, examination findings and contractual parameters to identify deviations, patterns and potential compliance issues.

You will then turn your findings into clear calculations, summaries and decision material that can support internal assessments, negotiations and follow-up actions.

The role combines business analysis, audit and compliance, with a strong focus on commercial data and structured problem-solving. You will take significant ownership of your analyses, going beyond the numbers to understand their commercial and contractual implications.

Working with complex and meaningful questions in an international licensing environment, you will have the opportunity to further develop your analytical capabilities, broaden your business understanding and collaborate with a wide network of internal and external stakeholders.

You will have a broad network of contacts and work closely with experienced colleagues across different functions and geographies. The role offers the opportunity to develop a strong understanding of licensing, intellectual property, commercial data and international business.

Who are you?

We believe you are a highly analytical and structured person who enjoys working with complex information and solving problems, primarily through Excel.

You have a strong attention to detail and are comfortable working with large amounts of data without losing sight of the bigger business picture. You enjoy digging into the details, identifying inconsistencies and understanding what lies behind the numbers.

At the same time, you can communicate your findings in a clear and structured way. You understand that good analysis is not only about finding the right numbers, but about turning those numbers into insights that others can use to make informed decisions.

You are self-driven, take ownership of your work and are comfortable working independently.

To succeed in this role, we believe you have:

A bachelor's degree or equivalent in Business Administration, Finance, Economics or other

3-5 years of experience in business analysis, controlling, financial analysis, audit, compliance analysis or a similar

Advanced Excel skills and confidence working with large and complex data, calculations and structured analysis

A structured and detail-oriented approach, combined with strong business understanding

Excellent communication skills in English, both written and spoken

Experience from audit, royalty reporting, license agreements, investigations or international commercial environments is considered an advantage, but not required.

What we offer

At Välinge, you will join an innovative, highly engaged and international company where technology, intellectual property and commercial business come together. We offer a collaborative culture, strong internal expertise and the opportunity to work alongside experienced colleagues in a truly global environment. Based in our modern headquarters in Viken, you will enjoy a workplace characterized by innovation, entrepreneurship and a genuine passion for continuous development.
