We are one of the fastest-growing podcast & audiobook platforms in Europe and we are now looking for a Senior Financial Controller/Accountant to join our growing team in Copenhagen. Come and join us on our journey to enrich lives through listening.

This is the role
Based out of our HQ in Copenhagen, you will report directly to our Director of Finance and work closely with our dynamic Finance team to support the business on all financial matters. In this role, you will have the opportunity to make a significant impact as you support accounting and controlling issues on a global scale across multiple entities and countries.

Your main responsibilities in this role:

• Work together with the rest of the team on process improvements or other development projects that make us work smarter.

This is you
You are an organized and proactive team player who combines financial prowess with data skills. You have no problem rolling up your sleeves and getting things done—both independently and when working together with the rest of your team. You thrive in a fast-paced organization where you have the opportunity to impact the way we work. You are a great communicator and are not afraid to communicate with stakeholders across the organization and get your point across.

Experience we’re looking for:

• 3+ years of financial accounting experience (CA, ACCA, CPA, or equivalent desired, but not required).
  
• Experience in-house at a startup/high growth company and/or in a Big4-firm.
  
• Open and clear communication style, fluency in English, and preferably proficiency in Danish.
  
• Experience in working with foreign entities.
  
• Thorough understanding of Danish GAAP and preferably IFRS.
  
• Experience with statutory audit requirements.
  
• Advanced Excel skills.
  

Naturally, being passionate and knowledgeable about podcasts, audio content, media, and entertainment is a big plus!

These are the benefits

• Up to six months of fully paid parental leave for all new parents - no matter how you identify or where in the world you live
• ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) for all employees, no matter where in the world you live.
• Free online therapy sessions through We.Care.
• Delicious lunch with great colleagues.
• Learning and personal development opportunities to help you thrive and enrich your skills in a fast-paced creator economy.
• Opportunity to work flexible hours and remotely.
  
• The chance to make an impact at a growing international company and see your work pay off immediately.

This is the hiring process
We invite you to showcase why you're the perfect fit to be our new Senior Financial Controller / Accountant.
Here's how you can make your resume stand out: Tailor your resume to fit the job you are applying for. We want you to outline your relevant experience, skills, and achievements, and to consider how your background and accomplishments make you the right fit for this role. We do not care about fancy headshots, so leave out your photo - we would rather learn about your skills and competencies through a well-written resume, and a nice story about what motivates you and how you thrive the best in a work-setting.

Interviews:
If we pick your application to continue to the interview stage, this is how we plan to run the interview process:

• First interview (45 minutes w. your hiring manager)
• Case session (1 h. with hiring panel consisting of primary stakeholders)
• Final interview (45 minutes w. hiring manager)

We might change it up to make sure it makes sense. Our main focus is to run an efficient and enjoyable interview process for you as a candidate.
