Global Finance Business Process Owner

Are you looking for a position as Global Finance Business Process Owner and are you motivated by driving efficiencies and improvements in finance operations in a growing, newly listed company? Look no further - this role offers an exciting pathway for your career

We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Global Finance Business Process Owner to lead our ambition to build a solid foundation and enhance quality and efficiencies in our finance operational processes.

Who we are

Svitzer is a global leader in towage services, aiding our customers in safely and efficiently manoeuvring their large vessels in and out of ports worldwide.

Founded in 1833, Svitzer builds on almost 200 years of experience, and our powerful tugboats and experts in towage work tirelessly to keep goods flowing, businesses thriving, and communities connected. Today, Svitzer is a leading global port and terminal infrastructure provider, serving approximately 2,000 customers in 141 ports and 40 terminals across 37 countries through a fleet of 456 vessels.

Our company is embarking on an exciting journey, exploring new digital and environmentally friendly products and partnerships to pave the way for a cleaner, greener future in towage.

At Svitzer, we prioritise people. Joining us means becoming part of an international community with a professional, ambitious, yet relaxed atmosphere. With a flat and lean organisational structure, we foster a collaborative, inclusive, and enjoyable working environment.

We offer

This role offers exceptional career development in a dynamic, global environment. As part of our international community, you will experience a unique balance of professionalism and an informal, supportive atmosphere. We pride ourselves on our flat organizational structure, where leadership is about care and learning, not hierarchy.

At Svitzer, we prioritize the well-being and development of our people, offering an environment where you can thrive both personally and professionally and where there are opportunities to impact key projects and influence our global finance operations.

The Global Finance Business Process Owner reports directly to the Head of Group Reporting & Finance Operations, Mie Boesen Huss. This is a global position based in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Travel days should be expected to support our regions and operations worldwide and ad hoc projects.

Key Responsibilities

As Global Finance Business Process Owner, you will be working closely with Finance and other cross-functional colleagues in the Svitzer Head Office, in our regions and with our Global Service Centre, to deliver on the following tasks and responsibilities:

  1. Have a key role in supporting the roll-out and implementation of standardised finance processes after the implementation of our new ERP system/Microsoft D365.
  2. Design, automate and implement end-to-end finance processes within accounting-to-report and support group compliance requirements. This also includes ensuring the standard operational procedures, SOPs, are kept updated.
  3. Close cooperation with our Global Service Centre on finance process initiatives, improvements and projects.
  4. Support ad hoc projects, when relevant.

Who are we looking for?

As a colleague, you are committed to supporting our global organisation and you enjoy taking ownership and responsibility for driving process improvements and efficient finance processes.

You are energetic and analytical, and you enjoy working in a dynamic, international environment. You ensure high quality deliverables based on input from various stakeholders while meeting deadlines.

You have excellent interpersonal and communication skills. Essential to your success in this role is your ability to collaborate and build strong relationships across various levels and functions of the Svitzer organisation.

In addition:

  1. A relevant master’s degree in accounting, auditing or finance and a minimum of 3-5 years of experience working with process design/process mapping in areas such as Accounting-to-report, Purchase-to-Pay, or Order-to-Cash.
  2. Good understanding of IT and an acknowledgment that IT and automation is an integrated part of all business processes.
  3. Fluency in both oral and written English.
  4. You must hold a valid Danish residence and work permit.
  5. Experience in Microsoft D365 is an advantage.

Join us

Come join us - we look forward to hearing from you Application deadline is 12 January 2025. For further information, please contact Mie Boesen Huss at
