Job description

Nobia - a leading European kitchen specialist listed on Nasdaq Stockholm - is looking for a Business Analyst / Business Controller to join our Finance function in Aarhus. This is not a traditional controlling role. We are building the finance function of the future: one where data, AI and sharp business insight come together to drive real value across our Nordic brands.

You will work closely with the Finance leadership and across the wider business to elevate our performance management agenda, automate how we work with data, and bring AI-powered solutions into the heart of finance. You will be part of a function in transformation, with significant room to shape both the way we work and your own development path.

What You’ll Do

Your work will sit at the intersection of business partnering, analytics and AI-driven automation. Concretely, you will:

• Build and drive our monthly performance management cycle - from data to insight to decision - in close collaboration with business and finance leaders.
• Lead deep-dive analyses on margin, customer and product profitability, and cost drivers, translating complex data into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Identify and implement AI pilot projects within finance processes - from automating reporting flows to building intelligent analytical workflows.
• Act as a trusted business partner, asking the right questions and challenging assumptions with a calm, data-driven perspective.
• Contribute to building the analytical foundation and tooling that our finance function will rely on for years to come.

Who You Are

We are looking for a sharp analytical profile, with strong ambitions and the right mindset. Most importantly, you are genuinely curious - constantly looking for ways to do things better and create greater value. You want to be part of shaping the future finance function, where we drive impact for the business by keeping a cool, clear overview of what really matters.

We expect that you bring

• 2 - 4 years of relevant experience from a controlling, FP&A, business analyst or consulting role - ideally in a multi-brand, multi-country or retail/consumer goods context.
• A strong analytical toolkit: solid command of Python and/or SQL for data analysis and automation.
• Hands-on experience with modern AI tools (Copilot, Claude or similar) - and an active interest in how AI changes the way finance works.
• A relevant academic background (e.g. cand.merc., cand.oecon., cand.polit., or similar).
• Strong business acumen - you see numbers as a means to better decisions, not an end in themselves.

The mindset we’re looking for

More than any specific skill, we care about how you think. You are curious by default, and you ask “how could we do this better?” before you ask “how have we always done it?” You see AI and automation not as buzzwords, but as practical levers to free up time for the analyses that actually move the business. You are comfortable challenging stakeholders constructively, and you keep a cool head when complexity rises.

What we offer

• A pivotal role in building the next chapter of finance at Nobia Denmark.
• Direct exposure to senior business and finance leadership, with real influence on the agenda.
• A workplace based in Tilst with strong flexibility around how and where you work.
• Competitive compensation and the opportunity to grow alongside a finance function in transformation.
• A culture where curiosity, ownership and continuous improvement are genuinely valued.

Start date: As soon as possible — we are ready when you are.
