Are you passionate about ESG and ensuring compliance in a dynamic, tech-focused environment? At Bontouch, soon to assume our new brand name Framna, you'll spearhead our group wide ESG strategy, partnering with all parts of our organization to integrate ethics and sustainability into our mission of becoming the leading digital product agency worldwide. If you're excited by the prospect of aligning environmental, social, and governance principles with business objectives in a collaborative, team-oriented setting, then we might be your next inspiring workplace!

BECOME PART OF THE TEAM

We work based on one simple but ambitious principle: to make the world’s greatest apps for the best brands on the planet. Currently, in Sweden we work with partners such as Swish, Post Nord, SJ, SEB, among many others, to build highly useful, beautiful-looking mobile and web apps that make life easier for millions of users in the real world.
During summer 2023, we joined forces with Denmark’s leading app agency Shape, backed by Waterland Private Equity, with the goal to create the leading digital product agency worldwide. This new venture is called Framna, and we want you to be part of our journey!
This is an exciting time to be joining us; we’re embarking on an ambitious international expansion plan and the ESG Manager has the opportunity to be an integral part of that, helping to shape the future of Framna.
We're recruiting for this role in our Stockholm and Copenhagen offices. You will be part of the Framna group functions supporting and collaborating with all parts of the organization, worldwide, to ensure we keep up with the latest legislation and position ourselves at the forefront of ESG compliance. You will be working closely with our Group General Counsel and reporting to our Group Chief Financial Officer.
Your day-to-day will be hugely varied involving everything from defining and executing our ESG strategy, to ensuring we stay ahead with compliance programs, delivering training, and navigating key legislation like GDPR, CSRD, and the EU AI Act. You'll be at the forefront of shaping our ESG efforts and driving change in the tech sector.
As this is a global position, although you will have your desk in Stockholm or Copenhagen, depending where you choose to be located, you will get to collaborate with all of our markets across the organization. If you can imagine sipping a Danish coffee during your workday and adding a touch of Danish hygge to your professional life, then this might be the next role for you!

WHAT YOU'LL DO

As our first ESG Manager, you will play a pivotal role in driving and implementing our ESG strategy across the Group. Your ability to balance commercial and strategic goals with compliance and risk factors will be essential.
More specifically you will be:

• Developing and implementing the Group’s ESG strategy.
• Supporting compliance with GDPR, CSRD, EU AI Act, and other key legislation.
• Implementing and maintaining Group-wide compliance programs and internal control frameworks.
• Reporting ESG KPIs to external stakeholders, including investors and lenders.
• Providing compliance support and advice to the business to help accomplish corporate goals, strategies, and priorities.
• Assisting in the development of compliance processes and standards for new business areas.
• Delivering staff training on ESG and compliance matters.
• Fostering a strong ESG and compliance culture throughout the Group.

WHO YOU ARE

Are you ready to make this role your own? We believe you might feel at home with us if you have:

• A passion for ESG and sustainability. You're all about making a positive impact and championing environmental and social governance.
• Relevant Experience. 5+ years of work-life experience, preferably in compliance and ESG, however, we are open-minded to all kinds of backgrounds.
• Legislation Expertise. The thought of taking a piece of complex legislation, analysing it and implementing it smoothly into our organization gets you excited.
• Project Management Skills: You're great at keeping projects on track and moving forward.
• Business-Oriented Mindset: You understand how ESG ties into our business and can make smart, strategic decisions.
• A collaborative spirit: You realize your work cannot be done without collaborating with others.

• Analytical prowess: You’re good at breaking down complex concepts and making them understandable and actionable.
• Tech Enthusiasm: You’re interested in technology and have a good grasp of our products and business.

WHAT YOU GET

Although you will be part of our global group functions, you'll also be part of the local teams in Copenhagen (Shape) or Stockholm (Bontouch) so you can expect the same perks, benefits and social events as your local colleagues.
If you choose to apply for this role with Bontouch in Stockholm, we offer you:

• A beautiful office in the heart of Stockholm. You will get a hybrid-remote work setup, flexible working hours, as well as some other pretty neat benefits like a generous wellness grant, top-up on your parental leave, occupational pension, and much more.
