Job Description:
FINANCIAL CONTROLLER

Are you a Controller or Accountant with a strong grasp of accounting and financial systems? Do you want to play a key role in developing and optimizing financial processes to drive business success? If so, you could be our next Financial Controller at Scandinavia’s leading airline!
The Financial Control team is responsible for delivering timely and accurate financial statements in compliance with external and internal policies, rules, and regulations.
A successful Financial Controller at SAS strives to produce robust and reliable financial statements, acts as an ambassador for internal control, has in-depth knowledge of the company’s accounting processes, and continuously seeks improvements. This is achieved through direct accounting work as well as the supervision of outsourced accounting processes.
This role requires strong analytical skills and the ability to anticipate potential issues while delivering timely resolutions. Your primary responsibility will be within the Fleet’s Maintenance & Production area, where you will oversee the accounting of technical parts and serve as the Finance Key User for the Tech/Inventory system.
You will collaborate closely with the Maintenance Team and Business Controllers and report to the Manager of Financial Control at our SAS office in Frösundavik. You will also occasionally work at the Arlanda office. 
 

Key Responsibilities

•    Oversee accounting, reconciliation, and balancing of accounts, including supervision of outsourced accounting processes (RTR)
•    Manage month-end closing and reporting to the SAS Group Accounting Team
•    Perform annual accounting tasks, including annual reports and income tax returns
•    Provide regular and ad hoc audit support
•    Ensure compliance with financial regulations and internal policies
•    Collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance financial data integration
•    Ensure accurate financial reporting by maintaining correct system configurations
•    Drive process efficiency in partnership with the Business and Maintenance teams
•    Deliver strategic insights through financial data analysis

Qualifications

•    Bachelor’s degree in Finance or Accounting
•    At least 3 years of experience as a Financial Controller or in a similar role (e.g., Auditor, Accountant)
•    Strong knowledge of accounting standards and regulatory requirements
•    Advanced proficiency in MS Office, particularly Excel, and experience working with ERP systems (e.g., Oracle)
•    Interest in technology and systems; experience with inventory or logistics systems is highly preferred
•    Fluency in a Scandinavian language and English, both spoken and written

As a person, you have an analytical mindset and strong problem-solving skills. You are solution-oriented, proactive, and not afraid to challenge the status quo. A team player with the ability to take initiative, you can independently drive tasks forward. You are committed to continuous professional and personal growth, always striving to improve.
