Group Controller

At Lynk & Co, we know that everything’s better when we move forward together. We’re working towards achieving equal gender representation at all levels of the company, as well as building a diverse team where everyone is respected, empowered, and celebrated. We’re not the kind of company we want to be yet, that’s why we’re looking for people that will challenge us and hold us accountable. In short, no matter who you are or where you come from: if you’re good at what you do, then we want you.

For a new role, playing a significant part in the analysis of our European performance, we are looking for a

Group Controller
You will be a key player in the continuous development of our analysis and budget structures and have a vital role in our short and long-term financial planning.

The position is based in Gothenburg and reports to the Head of Business Control.

What you'll do

You will overview the full European picture on both a monthly basis and of course also our more long-term financial outlook (yearly and 5+ years). You will be working in close collaboration with the business, controlling, accounting, and reporting teams as well business office.

From a controlling perspective, you will be responsible for the P&L structure, budget material, business plan material, and more, for all our seven markets.

With the financial foundation in order, you will simulate different scenarios, analyze, package it, and present it to key stakeholders within the company: what is behind the numbers.

- Lead the monthly and yearly closings from business control as well the European budget and forecasting process
- Continuous development of working tools, Power BI, and more
- Ad-hoc analysis


What you bring

- Solid financial knowledge from a similar role as Group Controller in “commodity flow”, multinational retail, or general wide-ranging industry experience.
- Experience with multiple legal entities in different countries
- The ability to handle substantial amounts of data in a structured way to find opportunities (and one or two problems) from different perspectives.


You also have strong analytical abilities with the capability to communicate complex information in an easy, understandable, and engaging way.

What we offer

Sure, we have all the basics in place like pension and insurances, wellness allowance, and flexibility in where and when you work. But that’s not the reason you choose us… You want to work with us because you will:

- Be part of creating something new that has never been done before.
The pace is fast and it is never boring!
- Get the best of a start-up atmosphere with the support of an already established organization
- Make a difference. We’re a lean team with a flat hierarchy, so every contribution has a direct impact
- Be part of a global and diverse team, with teammates from over 26 countries and an equal gender split
- Be part of a fun work culture with a high team spirit. There’s a running club if you’re into that sort of thing, Mario Cart tournaments, lunch dance sessions, beers after work, etc.


Working for Lynk & co

We're not into a strict hierarchy but like collaboration, creativity, and people who challenge norms. We've cultivated a culture of personal development and role growth. If you're an original thinker who values being open, personal, and challenging, then you´ll fit right in. In general, we think that imagination is just as important as expertise, and instinct can be as valuable as experience.

Sounds good? Well, then we want to hear from you.
