Job description

About Sweed Beauty

Sweed is a Swedish prestige beauty brand redefining effortless beauty through innovative, clean and vegan products inspired by the Scandinavian approach to beauty. With a fast-growing global presence across retail, e-commerce, and social platforms, we're on a mission to build one of the world's leading beauty brands.

The role

We are looking for an Accounting Associate to join our finance team in Stockholm.

This is a broad, hands-on finance role in a growing company. You will support day-to-day bookkeeping and AP/AR, and you will be responsible for making sure our B2B order flow runs correctly from order entry to a matching, accurate invoice. Alongside that, you will maintain the commercial master data - SKUs, price lists and product information - that our finance numbers ultimately depend on.

You will thrive here if you are meticulous and well-organised, and if you want a finance role with a commercial pulse - close to the orders, the customers and the products behind the numbers.

What you will do

Bookkeeping and accounting

• Support in ongoing bookkeeping: recording transactions, reconciliations and account maintenance.

• Manage accounts payable: register and process supplier invoices, prepare payment runs, resolve invoice queries.

• Manage accounts receivable: issue and follow up customer invoices, monitor overdue balances and support collections.

• Support the monthly close with reconciliations, accruals and supporting documentation.

• Support the annual audit and year-end process with documentation and reconciliations.

Order processing

• Enter, process and follow up B2B orders globally, from order entry through to delivery.

• Ensure every B2B order leaves our warehouse within the deadline.

• Ensure every order has a corresponding, correct invoice.

• Identify and resolve discrepancies in the order-to-invoice flow.

• Work closely with Operations to ensure correct invoicing and delivery.

Master data and product information

• Own and maintain master data: SKUs, product files, price lists and assortment.

• Ensure product information is correct and up to date across relevant systems.

• Coordinate assortment and pricing updates internally and towards external partners.

Commercial support and coordination

• Carry out and coordinate ongoing screenings of online retailers; document and report findings internally for follow-up.

• Coordinate logistics and distribution of assets and materials to B2B customers, making sure the right material reaches the right partner on time.

• Work closely with Operations, Sales and Marketing - contributing to clear processes and effective information sharing across teams.

We are looking for someone who

• Has a degree in accounting, finance, business administration or economics - recent graduates are very welcome to apply.

• Has 0–2 years of experience from a similar role (accounting, AP/AR, order administration, finance assistant or equivalent).

• Is fluent in English, spoken and written

• Is comfortable in Excel and picks up new systems quickly.

• Is structured, accurate and takes deadlines seriously - you notice when something does not add up.

• Takes ownership of their work and is a flexible team player

Nice to have, but not a requirement

• Experience from retail, e-commerce, consumer goods, or a product-based business.

• Familiarity with an ERP or accounting system (e.g. Fortnox, QuickBooks, Business Central or similar).

• Exposure to international or multi-entity accounting, or to the US market.

Why Sweed

• Genuine international exposure and hands‑on experience. With companies in both Sweden and the US, you will get hands‑on experience of multi‑entity finance early in your career.

• Build the finance team with us. The function is young. Your input shapes it.

• Grow with the role and move fast, learn fast. A growing company, hands‑on work, and finance that sits close to the business.
