As FP&A analyst in JDE Nordic Finance you will be joining a small team in a young and dynamic organization providing challenging tasks and clear options for development.

The FP&A analyst sits in the ‘Multi Cluster Organization’ and has a cross functional and cross country responsibility. The FP&A analyst is seen as the catalyst for driving standardization and efficiency in the organization.

Part of the responsibility relates to developing and preparing standard management reports (used to measure and benchmark periodic performance, both in the context of external conditions (market / consumer behavior and competition) and internal conditions (strategic plan, annual budget, big ticket innovation and investments). The FP&A analyst also creates tools for tracking and simulation for other operational departments and the FP&A analyst is further responsible for support functions in controlling of cost and activities of the other departments.

The FP&A analyst is the typical go-to resource for a broad spectrum of analysis that requires a factual and data approach advising both commercial control leads of markets as well as the country or cluster management team with valuable decision making insight. However more than 50% of the time is typically ad hoc commercial analysis and support so the FP&A analyst role is a diverse one, and no day can be considered the same.

The FP&A team generally supports marketing, sales (directly and via the commercial controllers) and support functions (HR, supply chain, finance etc.). The current opening is focused on the sales support but the roles are covering across so you will also work within the other areas

Starting as an FP&A analyst in JDE means that there is plenty of opportunity to learn and develop, and move towards a potential next step to commercial control lead (or other commercial roles).

Specific tasks in FP&A include:

• Support the Finance Director, Commercial Control Leads with key strategic financial analyses on a periodic basis
• Support the Marketing Category Director in quantifying projects, financial analyses and investment requests
• Lead mid and long term planning processes such as the Annual Operating Plan and Value Creation Plans from a cluster point of view
• Excel in high quality internal and external management information, delivering simplified impactful messages and recommendations to senior leadership. In the process of this strive towards standards across countries, increasing usability and efficiency.
• Support and review business investments, perform high quality quantitative justification analysis
• Cost center controlling
• Running trainings for the organization in excel and in Finance for non-Finance

• MBA or MSc in a Finance related discipline
• 2-5 Years of experience in finance preferably in a similar role (Very strong candidates with 0-2 years will be considered starting as “Junior” FP&A analyst).
• Results oriented
• Analytical and structured
• Team oriented
• Good communication skills (English fluent, Scandinavian language a clear advantage)
• Strong Excel skills (that will become even stronger here)
• SAP/BPC experience preferable but not a requirement
