SE - Finance Manager

Join us to shape the next generation of staffing in Sweden

We’re looking for a commercially minded and operationally strong Finance Manager for Sweden to lead and develop the Swedish finance function in one of the industry’s most ambitious and fast-evolving companies.

This is not a traditional finance role.

Despite our global scale, Job&Talent still moves with the speed, ownership, and entrepreneurial mindset of a company in transformation.

We're looking for our Country Finance Manager to join our leadership team in Sweden, acting as a trusted business partner and driving growth through commercial finance, operational excellence, technology, and AI-enabled ways of working.

Beyond influencing key business decisions, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping and strengthening the local finance function - building best-in-class local FP&A, business controlling, forecasting, and data-driven decision-making capabilities.

If you're excited by the opportunity to build, transform, and make a lasting impact, we'd love to hear from you.
