Head of Group Accounting

2 weeks ago

Oslo, Oslo County, Norway Simployer Group AS Full time

Are you an accounting expert who goes beyond just crunching numbers? Do you have the leadership skills to drive real business impact? We're looking for a Head of Group Accounting - someone who not only knows their way around a balance sheet but also understands that finance is about driving performance and shaping strategy, not just closing the books.

You will report to the CFO, and the place of work will be Oslo.

What You'll Be Owning:
  • Leading and developing the accounting team, ensuring we stay compliant, efficient, and ahead of the curve.
  • Ensure smooth operations across monthly reporting, payroll, incoming invoices, tax & VAT reporting.
  • Own and optimize our internal controls framework.
  • Optimize processes, find efficiencies, and make sure we're leveraging the best solutions, tools, and tech.
  • Take full responsibility for the Group's consolidated accounts and financial reporting, including annual report, monthly reporting to Ferd, and quarterly bank reports.
  • Keep a pulse on financial risks, tax matters, and accounting policies - we play by the rules but always find smart ways to stay agile.
Skills & Requirements:
  • Master's degree in accounting/auditing (e.g. MRR) or finance.
  • Minimum 10 years of relevant experience from auditing, preferably combined with operational accounting experience.
  • Experienced leader with the ability to mentor, coach, and inspire a team to perform at their best.
  • Solid expertise in tax regulations and audit processes.
  • Someone who thrives in a fast-moving, evolving environment.
We cultivate a culture of Simployeeship, which includes:
  • Being a team player who supports colleagues, fosters collaboration, and contributes to collective success.
  • Owning your own actions, embracing growth, and proactively tackling challenges.
  • Being committed to continuous learning and professional development.

In Simployer we have a culture where it is possible to grow and to have a direct impact on the business through empowerment and a flat structure. You will work with colleagues who are passionate about their work, and we can promise you that we have a lot of fun at work.

Message from hiring manager:

I'm Danjal, the Chief Financial Officer for Simployer and overall responsible for our teams within Accounting, Controlling & Analytics, IT, and Strategy & M&A. We are looking to build the finance function of the future, with a high degree of automation, outsourcing, and focus on driving profitable growth across Simployer. The Head of Group Accounting role is critical in that regard, through providing accurate and timely historical figures and ensuring smooth operation across various processes. If you have a passion for accounting, are tech-savvy, and thrive in a fast-paced and collaborative environment – we'd love to hear from you.

If you're an experienced accounting leader looking for a role where you can lead, innovate, and make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you
