Job Description

#LI-BA1

Interested in growing your career within the most exciting company? This can be a fantastic opportunity to elevate your financial skills and toolbox, bringing a couple of years of experience. Or an opportunity for a new graduate (level will be adjusted based on candidate experience).

In this job you can bring your finance expertise, interest in business insight and analytical skills into play and impact how we centrally plan and control Overhead Cost. Specifically, you will be responsible for General Services and Employee Expenses including global expatriation costs.

There is no financial relocation support offered for this position.

Core Responsibilities

Our team is committed to standardizing and optimizing the performance of core finance processes while driving productivity on overhead cost across the LEGO Group. We succeed through driver-based planning and reporting supported by our digital agenda.

Together with your colleagues you will:

  1. Support financial target setting and follow up on gaps in financial performance.
  2. Prepare financial plans for current and future years.
  3. Provide monthly performance reporting and other financial reports to our business partners.
  4. Identify and track cost drivers.
  5. Provide analytics on General Services and Employee Expenses, enabling trade-off/optimization discussions.
  6. Support the continued development of our reporting and financial planning process, including our digitalization agenda.
  7. Support, challenge, and act as a business partner within your area of responsibility.

We are organized in Corporate Finance and amongst other tasks set to centralize governance ownership, and we support the business with recommendations and benchmarks.

The company-wide outlook and the ambitious journey we have embarked on make the team a great place to start and advance your career within the LEGO Group.

Do you have what it takes?

You will make an excellent candidate if you:

  1. Hold a bachelor’s degree in economics or finance combined with an analytic approach and the ability to translate something complex into a simple storyline.
  2. Are open and curious and comfortable working in a constantly evolving environment.
  3. Possess excellent collaboration and communication skills.
  4. Are an advanced user of Excel. Experience with Power BI is a plus, but not a must.
  5. Are eager to learn and grow.
  6. Speak and write English fluently.

Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis. However, please note we do amend or withdraw our jobs and reserve the right to do so at any time, including prior to any advertised closing date. So, if you're interested in this role we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

What’s in it for you?

Here is what you can expect:

Family Care Leave - We offer enhanced paid leave options for those important times.

Insurances – All colleagues are covered by our life and disability insurance which provides protection and peace of mind.

Wellbeing - We want our people to feel well and thrive. We offer resources and benefits to nurture physical and mental wellbeing along with opportunities to build community and inspire creativity.

Colleague Discount – We know you'll love to build, so from day 1 you will qualify for our generous colleague discount.

Bonus - We do our best work to succeed together. When goals are reached and if eligible, you'll be rewarded through our bonus scheme.

Workplace - When you join the team you'll be assigned a primary workplace location i.e. one of our Offices, stores or factories. Our hybrid work policy means an average of 3 days per week in the office. The hiring team will discuss the policy and role eligibility with you during the recruitment process.

Children are our role models. Their curiosity, creativity and imagination inspire everything we do. We strive to create a diverse, dynamic and inclusive culture of play at the LEGO Group, where everyone feels safe, valued and they belong.

The LEGO Group is highly committed to equal employment opportunity and equal pay and seeks to encourage applicants from all backgrounds (eg. sex, gender identity or expression, race/ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, age and religion) to apply for roles in our team.

Research shows that women and people from different underrepresented backgrounds often only apply for a job if they meet 100% of the listed qualifications. For all candidates, if you dream of being a part of our team and you meet many, but not all of our listed qualifications for this role, please apply.

The LEGO Group is fully committed to Children’s Rights and Child Wellbeing across the globe. Candidates offered positions with high engagement with children are required to take part in Child Safeguarding Background Screening, as a condition of the offer.

Thank you for sharing our global commitment to Children’s Rights.

Just imagine building your dream career.

Then make it real.
