This position is based in either Stockholm or Sandviken, with a hybrid work arrangement and some travel required. You report to the Vice President of Group Reporting and Consolidation and collaborate closely with stakeholders across the business.

Your profile

We’re looking for someone with a university degree in Finance and a strong background in accounting, tax, and financial reporting—preferably from large or publicly listed companies. You bring extensive knowledge of IFRS, RFR2, and local GAAP, and are well-versed in Swedish regulatory frameworks. Leadership experience is essential, along with a solid understanding of accounting processes, including reporting in ERP systems, accounts payables and account receivables processes and tax rules.

Success in this role requires a proactive and structured approach. You’re a confident leader who builds capable, self-driven teams and fosters a culture of improvement. You communicate effectively across all levels of the organization and are comfortable navigating complex stakeholder environments. A strong drive for change, combined with a collaborative mindset, will serve you well in this position.
