Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future
The first step to growth in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.
On top of that, you have:

Master’s degree in finance, accounting, etc. with 4 or more years of relevant experience in end-to-end payroll processing and administration.
Proven background in working with numbers and the ability to perform detailed analysis to make improvements in payroll operations.
Demonstrated experience working with payroll softwares and openness to explore new tools.

That is why we say no to fossil-based projects and aspire to have 100 per cent of our revenue come from activities that move our customers towards sustainability.
We value differences and development and cultivate an environment of belonging and having fun. Because that is what brings out the best in you, at work and at home.
With offices primarily located in Scandinavia, the UK, North America and India, we are currently 8,000 people who bring their expertise in engineering, architecture, energy and environment into play.
