AlfaWall Oceanbird aims at preventing contribution to climate change from shipping. Oceanbird aims at becoming the market leading provider of wind propulsion solution to the shipping industry and thereby contribute to the much-needed transition of shipping. The first installations are scheduled to be in operation on a transatlantic car carrier in 2025.

About the job

Would you like to be part of the transition towards truly sustainable shipping and support United Nations sustainable goals? Do you want to work in a large revenue company as well as in a start-up?

This Management role will offer you both of that through being a part of the PureBallast and Oceanbird Management teams. Both these companies are 50/50 joint ventures owned by Alfa Laval and Wallenius but operated as independent companies. In the role, you will not only provide financial leadership, but also contribute to the strategic and business development.

* Oversee the financial performance and operations with full accountability on the P&Ls and Balance Sheets
* Develop strategic plans, support new business initiatives and identify and drive efficiency opportunities.
* Act as a strategic Business Partner to the Managing Directors and be an active member of the management teams.

Who you are

To succeed in this role, we believe that you need 5+ years of experience from a Finance manager or/and a Business Controller role. You have experience from working close to business development or sales processes. Experience from working in a manufacturing environment is a merit.

You are a strong team player who can formulate and understand business issues and significantly contribute to the management team tasks.

You are an action-oriented decision maker with a strong analytical and strategic business understanding. You have strong leadership skills to clarify priorities and create ownership and accountability. You have experience from working in an international environment and you always work with integrity.
