    • Review and analyze key P&L and balance sheet accounts to ensure accuracy and completeness.
    • Ensure deadlines for internal and group reporting are met consistently.
    • Identify opportunities to streamline closing-related tasks.
    Business partnering
    • Collaborate with the different operational teams, sales, and other departments to understand how daily decisions impact financial results.
    • Bring financial insights to non-financial colleagues in a clear, helpful way.
    • Build strong partnerships across the organization and act as a trusted sounding board.
    Strategic support and insights
    • Help prepare business cases for new investments, expansion opportunities, and strategic decisions.
    • Develop financial models and scenarios that support long-term planning.
    • Contribute to analysis that shapes the direction of our U.S. operations.
    Process and system improvement
    • Help standardize and streamline our finance processes as we grow.
    • Identify gaps or bottlenecks and propose improvements.
    • Support the development or rollout of new systems, tools, or reporting structures.
    All this is always carried out in accordance with our company's quality, environmental, and health policies.

    • A positive mindset, eagerness to learn, and enthusiasm for being part of a fast-growing business.
