Our business area revenue is approximately 6.4 billion SEK and we’re about 1 750 employees spread across global locations.

Right now, we’re on an exciting growth journey and we’re looking for an experienced and balanced finance leader with a visionary strategic view and the skills to transform numbers into performance drivers and strong business advantages.

Your mission
In this central CFO position, you manage the full financial scope of our new business area and its four divisions, and in our highly decentralized world, you’re the final gatekeeper of our financial flows, P/L and our balance sheets. Your responsibility covers strategic and operational financial activities on a global level, where you prioritize and set our financial structures and take lead in both planning and execution. By enable successful decision making, you enhance business development and drive growth, and you create an inclusive and forward-thinking setting where we stay connected to the business. As a valued part of our business area leadership, you work very closely with our President and the management team, and you’re also a key player in the communication with our Group CEO and CFO. You make sure that we have full financial understanding, and you support and ensure governance, transparency and contingency - from our divisions, through the business area and all the way to Group level.

Another important part of your job is to support our M&A agenda by screening targets on real potential and strategic fit. You also look at financial trends, risks and possible impacts to our business, and you explore market development and new digital solutions to make sure we stay ahead. By coaching, leading and developing the business control function through your team, you create a culture of high performance, solid financial processes, risk awareness and realistic deliverables. You also establish strong relations with our stakeholders, as well as communicate our results and protect our interest towards other financial partners within Sandvik Group.

Your background and personality
You have degree in Finance or Business, strong business acumen and a solid financial background formed within a corporate environment, and preferably a listed industrial company. You have at least seven years’ experience from leading financial operations – both strategically and tactically - and you’re skilled in driving change, executing plans and managing stakeholders in large, international organizations. Previous experience from M&As and business development is highly valuable, and you need the ability to confidently advice and direct decision-making at management level. In addition, you have a strong set of IT skills, and are used to communicating and presenting financial information to various target groups, which calls for excellent written and verbal skills in English.

Although forecasting is very important, you always stay connected and know what’s going on around you.

Finding improvements and new ways of working excites you, and you consider both details and the full picture as you challenge every corner of our financial flows.

You mix a strategic and commercial mind, along with an ambitious drive, strong analytical abilities and a straight-forward approach. You’re a passionate leader and an easy-to-access person, guided by high integrity and a genuine desire to create team spirit, inspire people and help us grow.
