About the role

We are looking for an experienced Maconomy expert to take a key role in the ownership, development, and day‑to‑day support of our Maconomy platform. You will work within Global IT supporting a complex, project‑based organization operating across multiple European countries.

The role combines hands‑on Maconomy expertise, strong financial process understanding, and the ability to support statutory reporting and banking requirements in a multi‑country environment.

You will belong to a high‑functioning team consisting of 16 dedicated colleagues, working along functional and operational streams of the Financial applications service portfolio. We are a multi‑country team supporting multi‑country demands. We maximise the usage of digital tools to work effectively at distance, but also meet for cooperative sessions in Stockholm on a monthly or bi‑monthly basis. A collective and positive approach is essential.

Learning from each other and having fun at work is important to us and we act in line with our core behaviours; approachable, committed and with recognised expertise to match.

This position is preferably located in Helsinki or Stockholm.

Key responsibilities

• Act as system owner and subject‑matter expert for Maconomy
• Configure, maintain, and continuously improve Maconomy to support business and finance needs
• Support project accounting, billing, revenue recognition, and period‑end close
• Ensure Maconomy supports statutory financial reporting and banking processes across multiple European entities
• Manage master data, system controls, and user access
• Support and troubleshoot integrations with Expense, Banking and Payment solutions
• Act as a bridge between Finance, Project Management, IT, and external partners

Required skills and experience

• 3+ years of hands‑on experience with Maconomy
• Strong expertise in project‑based ERP and financial modules
• Experience configuring and supporting Maconomy in a complex organization
• Strong understanding of the Maconomy data model
• Ability to analyse issues, identify root causes, and propose sustainable solutions
• Strong communication skills (English) and ability to work with both finance and non‑finance stakeholders

To be successful in this role, you are proactive and solution‑oriented, with a strong sense of ownership. You strive to be approachable and service‑minded in supporting colleagues and stakeholders. Furthermore, you are committed and accountable, with high attention to quality.

Preferred qualifications

• Background in financial statutory reporting and banking
• Experience working with statutory and regulatory requirements across multiple European countries
• Understanding of local GAAP and IFRS interactions in a multi‑entity environment
• Experience supporting external audits, statutory close, and regulatory reporting
• Experience with banking formats, payment processes, and bank integrations
• Experience with Maconomy upgrades, migrations, or major implementations
• Previous role as Maconomy system owner, superuser, or ERP consultant

Why join Sweco?

• A pleasant and dynamic working atmosphere in a growing and leading company
• A steady, purpose‑driven company where your work contributes to meaningful societal impact
• A culture that values inclusion, collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning
