Senior Manager for our outstanding Finance team
Finance


Are you ready to manage 6 highly professional finance colleagues who form a team that is equally autonomous and co-operative? And are you motivated by stepping into a setting where you get to utilize your financial skills in a cross-functional management role?


Join us in a dynamic and agile working environment where you are allowed and expected to make an impact on Xellia – and hence on the lives of people across the globe fighting to overcome serious illnesses.

Welcome to Xellia and our Finance department
Xellia provides anti-infective treatments and other critical care therapies for serious and often life-threatening conditions.

In our Finance department, you will be welcomed by 6 very experienced, competent, and self-driven colleagues. We handle all aspects of finance, from monthly reporting, consolidation, accounting, reconciliations, and annual reporting to payroll processing, VAT, and tax. We furthermore have an excellent extension of our team in Budapest, whom we have close cooperation with on a daily basis.


“This is a very strong team with a lot of autonomy who arranges tasks among themselves – making this a fairly straightforward management task and hence an opportunity to focus on delivery, optimization, and strategy,” says Bente Schmidt Nielsen, Director Corporate Finance.


We have a high degree of independence and flexibility within the confines of the natural peak times around month-end and year-end closings.

Ensure timely and correct deliveries through financial excellence
With a team that excels in both planning and conducting its own tasks, you will mainly act as a financial sounding board - while of course ensuring that the team generally thrives and stays motivated.

Overall, you will ensure that all reports and numbers are correct and compliant and handed in before the deadline. While your team will mostly undertake the actual reporting tasks, it is your responsibility to ensure the quality and delivery. This will mean occasionally filling in the numbers yourself at peak times.

More specifically, you will:
  • Empower your team through empathetic, diplomatic, and concrete financial professional management
  • Coordinate, prepare, and ensure quality, including updates of ERP and reporting systems, to ensure timely month-end closing
  • Coordinate and ensure quality in annual reports for several entities, and deliver important information to the consolidated annual report
  • Be responsible for taxes, including direct and indirect taxes, tax calculations, tax returns, and tax payments in corporation with your dedicated employees and the tax advisor
  • Manage the payroll function in close corporation with P&O and the external service provider
  • Prepare presentations on results and initiatives for top management, including audit documentation
  • Be the go-to specialist for a range of stakeholders – e.g., our controllers in the Business Finance function


“This is a role with an extremely wide range of stakeholders. So you will get a unique insight from all corners of our operation, giving you a solid foundation to truly make an impact,” Bente continues.

Finance experience and a trusting management approach
With your well-equipped financial toolkit combined with your calm approach to management, you are able to gain the trust of a group of highly skilled professionals and from other stakeholders.

Furthermore, you have the communicative and diplomatic skills to interact on all levels of the organisation as well as with external partners – from top management and P&O to Legal and other internal functions.

In addition, we imagine that you:
  • Most likely have a cand.merc.aud. or chartered accountant degree
  • Have a background in auditing or other equivalent experience to give you a deep understanding of the accountant and tax world
  • Are experienced with IFRS and statutory measurements and reporting
  • Demonstrate strong skills in technical accounting matters
  • Have some management experience
  • Speak and write Danish (or another Scandinavian language) as well as English


Are we your new colleagues?
If you have any questions, please contact Bente Schmidt Nielsen, Director Corporate Finance, at +45 4090 8872.


We will process the applications on an ongoing basis, so please do not hesitate to send your CV and cover letter as soon as possible and no later than December 13th, 2024.
