Accounting Economist to Ystad Energi

**Listen to the position as a PODJOB** **Accounting Economist at Ystad Energi** Ystad Energi is in an exciting phase of development. The energy sector is changing rapidly, and as a local, municipally-owned company, we have both the opportunity and the desire to drive that change – with stability, sustainability, and long-term thinking as our foundation. We are now strengthening our finance department with an accounting economist who wants to take on a broad responsibility, contribute their experience, and help shape the future ways of working. **About the Role** We are looking for someone with solid experience in accounting who feels confident in the year-end closing process, but who also enjoys a role where not everything is fully packaged. With us, there is an opportunity to influence both content and working methods based on your expertise, your suggestions, and the needs that arise along the way. The role is broad and involves responsibility for several aspects of ongoing accounting in our four companies: Ystad Energi AB, Ystad Energi Elnät AB, Ystad Energihandel AB, and Ystad Energi Service AB. You will work closely with your colleagues in the finance department, and together you will drive both daily operations and development issues forward. **Examples of Responsibilities:** - Monthly and annual closing - Ongoing reconciliations, accruals - Work with fixed assets and ongoing projects (e.g., project accounting or investments) is a must - Management of fixed assets, internal invoicing, and inventory including master data - Regulatory reporting - Participation in improvement projects and development of internal processes - Internal control We understand if technical terms such as kWh, kW, and pellets are not a natural part of your vocabulary today. This is not a barrier but rather a part of what you will learn in the role. You do not need to be energy-savvy, but you are curious and find it stimulating to understand the industry you work in. **Who We Are Looking For** We believe you have worked in accounting for several years and that you have a good understanding of both the big picture and the details. You do not need to have experience from the energy sector, but you have an interest in community-beneficial operations and understand the importance of structure, transparency, and quality. You are self-driven, responsible, and collaborative, and you thrive in a work environment where colleagues support each other and help each other improve. Among your personal qualities, we also find a proactive ability where you both identify and solve emerging problems. **Meritorious:** - Experience with independent monthly and annual closing work, preferably in companies with multiple units or a corporate structure - Good understanding of inventory management in accounting – especially in companies with technical or service-oriented operations - Experience working in financial systems with the ability to influence system settings and structure (e.g., chart of accounts, master data, parameters) - Strong ability to analyze figures and present financial information to operational managers - Experience from a similar role in companies with multiple legal entities - Knowledge of Unit4 ERP (Business World) - Experience from the energy sector or municipal operations **About Ystad Energi** Ystad Energi is owned by Ystad Municipality and consists of four companies with approximately 35 employees. We generate an annual revenue of around 310 million SEK and have a strong local presence. We offer our customers electricity networks, electricity trading, district heating, street lighting, and fiber with a focus on safety, the environment, and service. We provide a pleasant working environment, good conditions according to the Energy collective agreement, 25 vacation days, ATF (72 hours/year), wellness activities twice a week, as well as access to coffee, fruit, and engaged colleagues. We encourage candidates who have an interest in future technologies and development. **This Recruitment** In this recruitment, Ystad Energi is collaborating with HIREQ.
