Financial Controller, Inventory

What's so special about it?

Financial Controller, Inventory & Projects is a specialized role within Norlys' Financial Controlling team. The role has all the trimmings of a Financial Controller with a deep scope on inventory and project controlling. Here's what a week might look like:

Proper preparation

It's Monday, Period End Close is just around the corner. You start by sending out SAP-based cost breakdowns of inventory costs for both Norlys' central warehouse and Norlys' stores. You share the form with Hardware Director Ditte and Finance Business Partner Stefan and point out developments you find interesting. The latter you share with Retail Specialist Christiane asking for an explanation for a 10 tDKK discrepancy in counting difference in a single store.

Scanning vendor invoices received during the month, you post a few accruals for freight and handling costs, ask A/P to perform some corrections and chase Vice President Jakob for an approval – best to have as much on the books before tomorrow. You leave prepared and excited for tomorrow.

On your marks | ready | set | go

Tuesday is the big day: Period. End. Close. At Norlys, the PEC is completed in just one day You block out all distractions and get to work: All financial postings and explanations must be complete before the day is done.

With some insight from Supply Chain Manager Thomas, you calculate risk provisions for aging items on hand. Consumer electronics drop in value quickly, so you need to mitigate this risk continuously.

In the afternoon you go over all your accounts and refine your comments on financial performance.

You have dinner with the team and offer your support to anyone with a long night still ahead. After helping your Financial Controller peer Dasha with hardware sales analysis, you leave the office around 20.

Team day

Wednesdays it's Team Day: Your whole team is in the office – all nine of you. You catch up with a few of your colleagues you haven't seen face-to-face in a while. The rest of the day is spent reconciling balance sheet accounts and explaining fluctuations.

Finally, you are called to join the financial performance review and chip in with the findings you have made in the past three days.

Decelerating

It's Thursday and you have decided to work from home. You catch up on your inbox; then have a talk with a third-party logistics partner regarding implementing cyclical counting at their facility.

After a couple of days with plenty of tasks, you shut down your laptop around noon – time to unplug and restore. Tomorrow the pace will return to normal, and you might find some time to explore the soon-to-be ERP: D365 FO or do those compliance deep dives you have been putting off.

Friday

Today your focus is on Project Controlling. You pull a report from SAP showing hours and spend per project. The number of hours looks a bit off; you reach out to the Project manager to understand if all hours have been included in the project. After this reconciliation and a couple of iterations, you can produce an overview of all the costs related to the projects under your responsibility. The project managers are happy with the insights you have provided, and you receive an email with a big thank you as a great kick-off to the weekend.

Who you are | your experience

As you may have gleaned from the diary above, you must be able to navigate in a stakeholder landscape and conduct different analyses. A background in Finance is key and experience working in Telco or with inventory may be a plus.
