Job description

Take ownership of accounting and financial control in a complex transport environment

At NTG, we're looking for a Senior Accountant who enjoys digging into the numbers, solving problems, and working closely with the business. You'll take ownership of accounting related to our hauliers and transport providers while helping us improve the way we work across finance and operations.

Working closely with operational teams, Haulier Credit, and colleagues across finance, you'll help strengthen financial governance while contributing to the continuous development of our finance setup and ways of working.

While your primary workplace will be our HQ in Hvidovre, you'll spend 1-2 days per week at our Road division in Køge, giving you the opportunity to work closely with the business.

At NTG, thousands of transport movements and supplier transactions take place every day across our network. Ensuring accurate financial handling of those activities is crucial to both operational performance and financial transparency.

As our new Senior Accountant, you will take ownership of accounting activities related to hauliers and subcontracted transport providers, ensuring that transport costs are recorded accurately, reconciliations are completed on time, and financial data remains reliable and compliant.

Beyond the day-to-day accounting responsibilities, you will also help drive process improvements and standardization initiatives across finance. You will work closely with both operational and finance stakeholders to identify inefficiencies, strengthen controls, and support the ongoing development of scalable processes that support a growing international business.

What you\'ll be doing

• Taking ownership of accounting related to hauliers and subcontracted transport providers
• Reviewing and validating transport costs
• Following up on missing documentation and resolving discrepancies
• Reconciling supplier balances and transport cost accounts
• Ensuring accurate and timely payments to our transport providers
• Supporting month-end close and financial reporting activities
• Preparing balance sheet reconciliations and following up on accruals
• Supporting audits and ensuring solid financial controls
• Working with operations and Haulier Credit to solve issues and improve collaboration
• Identifying smarter ways of working and helping drive process improvements, automation, and standardization across finance

What it takes to succeed in this role

We\'re looking for someone with a degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics, or a related field and at least five years of relevant experience. You have a strong understanding of accounting principles and financial reporting processes, advanced Excel skills, and ideally experience working with ERP systems such as Business Central, CargoWise, XSPED, or similar.

You have experience working with reconciliations, month-end closing, financial reporting, and analysis, and you\'re comfortable navigating large data sets and multiple stakeholders.

Most importantly, you\'re curious by nature, enjoy solving problems, and are always looking for smarter and more efficient ways of working. As this is an international role, strong English communication skills, both written and spoken, are essential.

At NTG, you\'ll join a company that continues to grow, evolve, and challenge the status quo. You\'ll get plenty of responsibility, a high degree of flexibility, and the opportunity to make a real impact on how we work.

In return, you\'ll become part of a collaborative team where people are trusted to take ownership and where good ideas are welcomed, regardless of title.
