You will ensure valid data, compliance, be responsible for internal controls and manage hands-on transactions such as bookkeeping, tax/VAT, salary etc.
You will refer to and actively support the CEO and act as Business Partner to the management team and other stakeholders.
Your tasks will include:

You have a strong financial “toolbox” including solid experience with accounting, reporting, compliance etc. Experience from working in a similar type of organization will be an advantage, but it is not a requirement.
You are detail oriented, structured and passionate about delivering valid data and high quality – on time. You are hands-on and familiar with a role that combines reporting, compliance, daily hands-on transactional tasks with a supporting Business Partner role.
As a person you are loyal, hardworking and a true professional – and you thrive in an environment with dedicated and highly skilled people. You can work independently, but you are also a team-player. You have strong communication skills and are used to stakeholder management.
You have business acumen, are proactive and able to analyze financial data, models and identify potential risks – and combine this with your understanding of and interest in the business.
Finally, you are fluent in Danish and English and have good IT skills.
At the LEO Foundation you will become part of a small, but dedicated team – and through your role you will be able to make a difference and create value to the business.
