Finance System Specialist to link IT and finance
In our Financial Controlling team, we create value by ensuring high-quality financial numbers, including timely reporting and compliance. Our responsibilities include forecasting future profits and losses, handling reporting and controlling of monthly financial figures and making sure we follow correct accounting principles.
You will join a team of creative and committed finance experts, covering different areas of finance, tax, finance systems and financial compliance. We are a collective of passionate individuals with a wide variety of backgrounds. Together, we challenge the status quo and ensure financial transparency.
Your background is not the tipping point for us. You could be a newly graduate with a master’s in Finance and IT or a business controller with a flair for IT and systems. No matter your background or level of experience, we will make sure you get the best possible start at DC. Starting out, you will get a thorough introduction to the team, your tasks and DC’s financial system landscape. One of your first assignments will be to help and understand the needs from Finance and implement that information in our ERP system and improve the system on an ongoing basis. On the longer term, you will play a significant role in developing our finance system landscape and strategies together with our Lead Finance System Analyst, using your innovative thinking to drive Finance at DC forward.
