About the role
Good with numbers. Curious about business. Like getting things done?
We’re looking for a Financial Controller to join our finance team at Food Folk Suomi, the company operating the McDonald’s business in Finland. You’ll help keep our financials accurate, our reporting reliable and our accounting processes running smoothly. But we’re also looking for someone who wants to look beyond the numbers and understand what drives the business.
Your main focus will be financial accounting, with opportunities to grow into management accounting and business controlling.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Owning month-end closing activities and balance sheet reconciliations
- Ensuring accurate accounting and reliable financial data
- Working with statutory accounting and financial statements
- Collaborating with colleagues across our Finnish and Nordic finance teams
As you grow in the role, you’ll also have opportunities to:
- Work with management reporting, financial analysis and business controlling
- Understand restaurant profitability and what drives business performance
- Simplify, improve and automate financial processes
- Contribute to projects that support better business decisions
Qualifications
We think you’ll enjoy working with us if you:
- Have a solid accounting foundation, ideally with 3–5 years of relevant experience
- Have hands-on experience with month-end closing and balance sheet reconciliations
- Take ownership, work independently and enjoy solving problems
- Are curious about business and the story behind the numbers
- Enjoy collaborating across teams and countries
- Communicate fluently in Finnish and English
It’s a plus if you have:
- Experience with management accounting, financial analysis or business controlling
- Strong Excel skills and an interest in data
- Experience improving or automating financial processes
- Knowledge of IFRS
- Swedish language skills
We value common sense, curiosity and ownership. We like straightforward communication, practical solutions and people who get things done.
You don’t need to tick every box. Strong accounting skills and a willingness to grow matter more than having done it all before.
What we offer
- A unique opportunity to work with one of the world's most recognized brands
- International collaboration across the Nordic region
- Professional development and career growth opportunities
- Competitive salary and benefits package
- A dynamic, professional and values-driven culture and work environment
