Job description

About the Role

We are looking for a Finance Manager to lead and own our full finance function at TWISTSHAKE. This is a hands‑on leadership role where you will take end‑to‑end responsibility for accounting, management reporting, financial systems, and cross‑functional finance support. You will report directly to the CFO and lead a team of three.

The right person brings a CFO mindset to everything they do. You don’t see finance as a back‑office function — you see it as the backbone of operational authority in the company. Your job is to make sure no “shit in, shit out” scenarios exist: data integrity, process discipline, and proactive financial governance are your baseline, not your ambition.

This role is being created as part of a broader organizational restructuring to free up CFO capacity for AI, automation, and strategic process development across the company.

About TWISTSHAKE

Twistshake is an innovative Swedish direct‑to‑consumer (D2C) brand within the baby and children’s products industry, with global sales through our own e‑commerce channels, retailers, and marketplaces. Today, our products are sold in more than 70 countries, and we continue our international growth journey with a strong focus on innovation, design, and digital commerce.

We are an entrepreneurial company where ideas quickly turn into action. With short decision‑making paths and a fast‑paced environment, every employee has the opportunity to make a real impact and contribute to our continued success.

Responsibilities

Accounting & Reporting

• Own the full accounting cycle A–Z: month‑end close, year‑end close, reconciliations, VAT, statutory reporting, and audit preparation.
• Build and continuously develop management reporting — deliver timely, accurate, and actionable financial insights to the CFO and leadership team.
• Take ownership of budgets, forecasts, and variance analysis. Drive the reporting cadence and ensure the business always has a clear financial picture.

Systems & External Partners

• Own all finance‑related systems including ERP (Business Central), payment platforms, and reporting tools. You are the go‑to person for how financial data flows through the organization.
• Manage relationships with external accounting consultants, auditors, tax advisors, and other financial service providers.
• Drive system improvements and integrations — identify inefficiencies and fix them, don’t wait for someone else to raise the issue.

Cross‑Functional Finance Support

• Provide finance support to B2B, Marketplace (Amazon), and Online/D2C channels: customer creation, credit checks, AR review, collections, and invoicing.
• Define and document finance processes and ways of working with every related department — R&D, Purchasing, Operations, Sales, and Marketing.
• Ensure an A–Z process mindset: from purchase order to payment, from customer order to cash collection, every step has a defined owner and a clear process.

Leadership & Culture

• Lead the finance team (currently 2 + 1 incoming) with a proactive, high‑standard mentality. Set the tone: we are not the last stop — we are the quality gate.
• Build a culture of financial authority: the finance team should be the department that ensures data quality, process compliance, and operational discipline across the company.
• Challenge the status quo. If something is broken, own it. If a process is missing, create it.

Qualifications

Required

• Proven experience in a senior accounting or finance lead role, ideally in an e-commerce, FMCG, or consumer goods environment.
• Advanced Excel skills — you are a true Excel power user (complex formulas, data modeling, financial templates).
• Strong understanding of ERP table structures and how financial data flows through integrated systems. You think in data models, not just journal entries.
• System and process-first approach: you instinctively look for how to systematize and automate rather than do things manually.
• Experience with BI/analytics tools, preferably Power BI. You can build and maintain dashboards and reports.
• AI-first mindset: you actively use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar) in your daily work and see them as core productivity tools, not novelties.
• Fluent Swedish and English, both written and spoken.

Preferred

• Experience working in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
• Familiarity with multi-market e-commerce operations (D2C, B2B, Amazon Vendor/Seller Central).
• Experience with payment service providers (Adyen, Klarna, or similar) and reconciliation of complex payment flows.
• Understanding of Swedish accounting standards and tax regulations.

Your Team

You will lead a finance team of three: one accountant (in place), one junior accountant (starting July 2026), and one interim consultant (transitioning out by end of August 2026). Your job is to build this into a self‑sufficient, high‑performing finance unit.

What We Offer

• A key leadership role in a fast-moving, international consumer brand selling across 20+ markets.
• Direct line to the CFO and co-founder — short decision paths, real influence.
• The opportunity to build and shape the finance function from the ground up.
• A company that is genuinely committed to AI and automation — we practice what we preach.
• At TWISTSHAKE, you’ll join an entrepreneurial and inspiring workplace where you will have the opportunity to make a real impact while developing both professionally and personally.
• Office in Stockholm, Sweden.

Please submit your application, including your CV and cover letter, no later than July 3rd, 2026. We value substance over polish — tell us what you’ve built, improved, or transformed.
