The posting

The opportunity

We’re currently looking for a Team Lead, Group Consolidation to join our Group Accounting team in Gothenburg. In this role, you will be responsible for the consolidation of global financial reporting and for providing accurate, timely and uniform consolidated financial data for Polestar Group. You will lead the group closing and reporting process, act as a trusted advisor in matters related to accounting and reporting, and play a key role in the delivery of consolidated reporting and SEC filings to Nasdaq in New York.

As a people manager, you will lead a team of five and balance operational excellence with coaching and collaboration in a global finance environment.

This position is based in Gothenburg, Sweden. We believe in a hybrid way of working that supports both focused individual work and in person collaboration, enabling teams to perform at their best.

The responsibilities

In this role, you will be expected to lead and secure accurate and timely group closings and reporting at consolidated level. Working as part of Group Accounting, you will be instrumental in ensuring high quality financial reporting and analysis across the group.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Leading the monthly, quarterly and yearly group closing process, including group consolidation and internal and external financial reporting
  • Performing financial analysis on group level
  • Preparing external IFRS quarterly and annual financial reports
  • Providing accounting guidance to the wider finance organisation
  • Participating in finance related projects and initiatives

The ideal candidate

To succeed in this role and at Polestar, you need to be confident in navigating complex accounting topics, comfortable working under tight deadlines, and able to combine leadership with hands on expertise. You have experience taking a leading role in a team setting and are used to collaborating across functions and with external stakeholders. You communicate clearly, can provide guidance when needed, and are comfortable acting as a speaking partner on accounting and reporting matters in an international environment.

In addition, you’ll need the following qualifications:

  • A university degree in Business Administration with a focus on finance or accounting, which provides the technical foundation required for group accounting and consolidation work
  • Minimum ten years of relevant experience from a global corporate accounting function or audit environment, enabling you to manage complex group reporting requirements
  • Strong knowledge of IFRS accounting standards and group consolidation, essential for accurate external and internal reporting
  • Experience from leading or coaching a team, which is required to succeed as a people manager
  • Solid experience working with consolidation systems, primarily AARO, used in the group consolidation process

English is the language of written and spoken communication at Polestar. We are an international company with a strong growth mindset, operating in a fast moving environment where change is common and progress is continuous.

The process

If this sounds like a match for your ambitions, we look forward to hearing from you. We apply continuous selection and may close the application process once a suitable candidate has been identified.

As part of our recruitment process, you will complete work-related psychometric assessments. These assessments are designed to support an objective and fair evaluation of the competencies, skills, and potential required for success in the role.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
