What you bring:

We are looking for a financially strong and curious professional who enjoys understanding how a business really works and turning financial data into meaningful business insights. You may come from FP&A, financial or operational controlling, accounting, business finance, consulting, or another analytical environment where you have developed a strong understanding of business performance.

You bring experience working with financial analysis, planning, forecasting and performance management, ideally in a complex B2B, industrial or similarly structured environment. Experience in a global, regional or multi-business organization is an advantage, but we are equally interested in people who have demonstrated strong learning agility and the ability to quickly understand new businesses and operating models.

You are comfortable working with data and modern finance tools, with strong skills in Excel and PowerPoint and experience with tools such as Power BI, Power Apps, SAP or similar platforms. You are interested in using data, digitalization and emerging technologies, including AI, to make financial planning and performance management more efficient and insightful.

Beyond technical expertise, you are a strong communicator and collaborative business partner. You can translate complex financial information into a clear story, engage confidently with stakeholders at different levels, and influence decisions without relying on formal authority. You are open to different perspectives, willing to challenge constructively, and comfortable working across functions, geographies and cultures.

We value diverse career journeys and do not expect every candidate to have followed the same path. Whether you are an experienced FP&A professional ready to broaden your scope, a high-potential finance or controlling professional looking for your next step, or someone coming from a consulting or another analytical background with strong business and problem-solving capabilities, we would like to hear from you.

Location & Travel:

We welcome applications from candidates across Europe and are open to discussing flexible working arrangements depending on your location. You do not need to be based in a specific office to be successful in this role.

The role involves regular collaboration across countries and functions, so a willingness and ability to travel periodically is important. We believe in combining the flexibility of remote working with opportunities to connect in person, build relationships and collaborate with colleagues and stakeholders across the organization.

För att bygga en renare och smartare framtid krävs alla sorters människor: de nyfikna, de modiga och de kreativa. Därför välkomnar vi människor med alla bakgrunder och erfarenheter.
