Accounting Manager to Ridestore

Ridestore is growing at a rapid pace, and therefore we need to reinforce our financial team with a colleague who will manage our bookkeeping, closing, annual reporting, and legal for our subsidiary in the US and Canada. You can keep up a positive outlook when you take on multiple challenges in a continuously changing world. More importantly, you have the knowledge and drive to take Ridestore to the next level. In Finance, we are at the front of digitalization. We automate and integrate everything manually and dull. Does the challenge of constant change and digitalization excite you? Then this is the perfect opportunity for you!

Who We Are:

Ridestore was founded over 15 years ago. We have a passion to create products and brands that people genuinely want. What started as a small action-sports retailer in Trollhättan has grown to one of Sweden’s largest, most global, and most profitable e-commerce companies. How? By focusing and building our brands together with the most important people. The customers. This has taken us to a group turnover of more than 1,3 billion SEK and our North American markets have a turnover of more than 50 million USD and 100% year-on-year organic growth.

By empowering our customers, we have co-created the fastest-growing snow brands in Europe and North America. Our brands DopeSnow and Montecwear can today be seen in almost every ski resort in the Nordics, Alps, and North America.

And we are just getting started…
