Who we are
At JBT Marel, we are united by a passion for transforming the way food is processed. As a global leader in advanced food processing systems, we work side by side with our customers to create smarter, more sustainable solutions that feed the world.
In Støvring, Denmark, we specialize in high-quality equipment and systems for the salmon industry, delivering technology that sets new standards in efficiency and reliability. Joining our team means becoming part of a company where your contribution has a global impact, while still working in a dynamic and close-knit local environment.
What the role is about
We are seeking a talented Business Controller to strengthen our finance team in Støvring. You will report directly to the Senior Business Controller and join a broader department where three Financial Controllers and a Credit Manager work. This structure gives you the opportunity to learn from and collaborate with experienced finance colleagues while also carving out your own areas of responsibility.
The role will cover a broad range of operational controlling tasks, project-related controlling, and ad hoc analysis, ensuring accurate insights that support both day-to-day operations and long-term strategic goals. You will act as a trusted partner across Sales, Supply Chain, Service, and R&D, providing reliable reporting and financial guidance. While the focus will primarily be local, the role may also include limited travel to support projects or cross-site collaboration.
Your main tasks will include:
- Driving operational controlling and reporting, including dashboards, KPIs, and monthly reviews
- Ensuring accurate POC/WIP calculations and proper revenue recognition
- Supporting budgeting and forecasting processes with reliable data and analysis
- Taking ownership of selected business areas and providing high-quality financial insights
- Managing project economics, including cost controlling for machinery and systems
- Supporting ERP and BI developments, including data validation and report improvements
- Conducting ad hoc analysis to guide management decision-making
Your success will be measured by your ability to deliver timely and accurate financial reports, take ownership of business areas, and contribute to continuous process and system improvements that strengthen our overall finance function.
What we are looking for
The ideal candidate is a motivated finance professional eager to develop within a global organization. You have a solid academic background, hands-on analytical skills, and the curiosity to understand the business behind the numbers. Just as importantly, you bring a collaborative mindset and the drive to take ownership.
We expect you to bring:
- A degree in Finance, Accounting, or Business (e.g., Cand.merc., HD(R), Cand.merc.aud., or equivalent)
- 0–3 years of relevant experience from controlling, finance, or audit (internships or student positions count)
- Strong Excel skills and experience with BI tools such as Power BI; ERP knowledge (Dynamics AX is a plus)
- A strong grasp of financial control principles, including debit/credit and revenue recognition
- A proactive and detail-oriented mindset, combined with the ability to see the bigger picture
- Strong communication skills and a collaborative, business-partnering approach
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious professional who wants to grow their career in finance and gain exposure to an international environment where innovation, teamwork, and professional development go hand in hand.
