Job description

SÄ

Do you enjoy owning the full finance agenda in a local business while working in an international environment? At Parker, you'll combine hands-on accounting responsibilities with business partnering and financial analysis in a role where your impact will be visible both locally and across the wider EMEA organization.

Your role

This is a broad finance role where you will combine operational accounting responsibilities with business-oriented financial analysis and reporting. This is an on-site position located in Mölnlycke, Sweden. You will work closely with local leadership in Mölnlycke while also collaborating with finance colleagues across EMEA and US.

You will play an important role in ensuring accurate reporting, supporting business decisions, and driving financial processes forward in a structured and proactive way. You will be involved in both day-to-day financial operations and longer-term improvements, acting as a key financial partner to the business.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading accounting activities such as general ledger, cost accounting, inventory accounting, revenue recognition, and month-end/year-end closing
• Managing financial reporting, reconciliations, and analysis to ensure accurate and timely reporting
• Supporting budgeting, forecasting, KPI follow-up, and performance improvement initiatives
• Acting as a business partner to local management by providing financial insights and decision support
• Ensuring compliance with US GAAP, internal controls, SOX requirements, and driving continuous improvements in finance processes

You will also support business projects, system improvements, and collaborate with both local stakeholders and international finance teams. This role suits someone who enjoys both the operational side of finance and the opportunity to support broader business decisions.

Who are you?

We believe you are a hands-on and analytical finance professional who enjoys working close to the business and taking ownership of your area. You are comfortable balancing detailed accounting responsibilities with broader financial discussions and have the ability to manage deadlines in a structured and proactive way.

You likely hold a degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field and have around 4-6 years of experience within accounting and finance. You have a strong understanding of financial reporting, accounting principles, and closing processes, and ideally bring experience from a larger international organization or a manufacturing environment.

You are comfortable working in ERP systems, and experience with JDE is considered an advantage. Knowledge of forecasting, internal controls, and financial performance management will also help you succeed in this role. Since you will collaborate both locally and internationally, you need to be fluent in both Swedish and English.

As a person, you are structured, business-minded, and collaborative. You enjoy building relationships across different functions and are able to turn financial data into clear insights, actions, and recommendations that support the business.

Why Parker?

At Parker, you will join a global company with strong values, advanced technology, and a long-term perspective. You will work in an international environment where your contribution matters and where you will have the opportunity to grow both professionally and personally.

You'll be part of a collaborative culture where different perspectives are valued and where inclusion is seen as a strength. We believe better ideas are created when diverse experiences and backgrounds come together.
