Job Description

You will take operational responsibility for a portfolio of around 10-20 companies within the group, with full accounting ownership for each. Working closely with the AP/AR function, Treasury and other support functions, you will be the primary point of contact for your companies while owning the numbers behind them, with the flexibility to also support on other activities across the group as needed.

This role is based at our HQ in central Stockholm, with the flexibility of a hybrid setup.

Your impact

You will play a key role in ensuring accurate, well-controlled accounting for your portfolio of companies by:

• Owning the books for a defined portfolio of entities, in accordance with local GAAP.
• Running ongoing accounting for your companies: accruals, depreciation, VAT returns, reconciliations, and monthly and annual closing work.
• Handling accounting for assets, project tagging and transaction traceability.
• Acting as the primary contact for your companies, staying on top of everything happening within them.
• Working closely with AP/AR, Treasury and other support functions, while retaining overall responsibility for your entities' figures.
• Supporting accounts payable/receivable across the group as needed, including invoices, payments and collections.
• Providing backup across shared functions.
• Contributing to process improvement across the accounting function.

We're looking for you

You are an early-career talent with clear drive and a willingness to take ownership of your own companies. You're structured and meticulous, with a strong sense of order in reconciliation work, and you're proactive: you see what needs to be done and take the initiative to improve processes and ways of working.

Required Qualifications

• 2-4 years of experience from audit and/or qualified accounting; an audit background as a stepping stone into the role is welcome.
• Experience with AP/AR flows (high invoice volumes, project accounting, supplier ledgers) and hands-on reconciliation work is an advantage.
• Academic background in accounting or auditing (bachelor's or master's) is a strong plus.
• Experience from an accounting firm or audit practice is a clear advantage.
• Interest in driving improvement across the function, including making use of AI tools.
• Fluent in Swedish and English.
• Based in or able to work primarily from our Stockholm office, on a hybrid basis.

What's in it for you?

• Find your passion and purpose

  At Alight, you'll make a real, tangible impact on a global scale by accelerating the transition to a fossil fuel-free world. Your work will be more than a job; it will be a meaningful contribution to ensuring the sustainability of our planet.

• Work from anywhere in Europe

  We're proud to have a flat and autonomous organizational culture where everyone takes accountability for their own work. You'll have the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere in Europe, or you can decide to work hybrid/fully onsite at one of our offices in Stockholm, Madrid, Gothenburg, Paris or Malmö. We'll support your home office setup, including subsidies for equipment like adjustable desks and office chairs.

• Collaborate with a talented, diverse team

  To ensure we attract the best talent out there, we don't limit ourselves to a specific location. Alighters are based across Europe and our diverse backgrounds and skills complement each other well. We know that having a diverse team drives better collective decisions and superior business performance. Today our gender split is 44/56, with 15 nationalities and employees in 6 countries.

• Be part of Alight's success

  At Alight, you'll be a part of an entrepreneurial culture in which you're encouraged to "think like an owner," which means that we trust you to call the shots and excel in your role. Many Alighters are also shareholders, and we believe in giving our employees incentives to create the best possible impact.

• Recharge when you need it

  As an Alighter, you'll have 30 days of paid vacation and the option to exchange public holiday days for other days off. We also offer market-leading insurance programs for all our employees, together with an annual wellness allowance of 5000 SEK. At our HQ in Stockholm, we also have weekly activities like lunch runs and Thursday yoga sessions.

• Have fun together with a fantastic team

  While we take our role in driving the green transition seriously, we know how to have fun. We believe that a positive team spirit enhances our collective impact. Some examples of planned activities are Friday breakfast every second week, Guest lecturers with dinner, team dinners, and sports activities. But there are also a lot of spontaneous activities driven by our employees!

• Grow professionally and personally

  We're committed to helping you grow and embrace new areas of responsibility, whether vertically or horizontally. It's common for our team members to be promoted to leadership roles or transition into entirely new domains. We have structured career coaching, internal training programs, performance reviews, and goal-setting frameworks to help you develop your career.
