At Happy Socks we have made it our mission to spread happiness everywhere, and you only have to spend a few minutes with us to realize how seriously we take it!
We are looking for a part-time Finance Assistant (50%) to join our accounting team at our HQ in Stockholm. If you are currently studying Business Administration or Economics (for example at Stockholm University) or have completed a higher vocational degree (YH) and are looking to get relevant finance experience alongside your studies, this is an excellent opportunity!
As our Finance Assistant, you will play a crucial role in keeping our daily financial operations running smoothly. You’ll get to be part of a fun, ambitious Finance Department where no two days look exactly the same.
Your flexible 50% schedule can ideally be spread across half-days by agreement, giving you a lot of freedom to plan your work alongside your studies. We practice a hybrid model: we want you to work about half your time at our colorful HQ, and the remainder can be done remotely.
Your focus will primarily be on Accounts Payables, bank reconciliations, and general finance administration:
Finance Inbox & Mail Master: Take ownership of monitoring and managing our shared finance inbox, as well as handling physical mail and finance-related documents.
Accounts Payables & Rillion: Handle arrival registrations in our invoice management system (Rillion), oversee general supplier ledger administration, and act as a point of contact for vendor inquiries.
Payments & Banking: Prepare weekly payment proposals, register and execute payments in the bank, and match outgoing payments against invoices.
Reconciliations & Accounting: Perform regular bank reconciliations, continuous account reconciliations, and assist with general day-to-day bookkeeping tasks.
Team Support: Assist the wider finance function with ad-hoc administrative tasks as needed.
Educational Background: Upper secondary degree in economics/business, a vocational degree (YH-utbildning till ekonomiassistent), or currently studying Business Administration/Economics.
Attention to Detail: Finance is all about exact numbers! You are structured, organized, and pride yourself on high accuracy.
Tech & System Savvy: Solid user skills in standard accounting software (experience with Rillion or ERP systems like Business Central is a plus) and good MS Office skills, especially Excel.
Languages: Good knowledge of Swedish (both written and spoken) is required, along with fluency in English to fit into our global culture.
The "Can-Do" Spirit: You are a positive team player with a solution-oriented mindset who loves it when things happen fast and always delivers on what you promise.
Most importantly, you have the personality to fit a somewhat crazy, fun work environment where we believe in color and playfulness, a place where you can expect the unexpected and you are a source of creative weirdness.
We care a lot about Diversity at Happy Socks and would love to see a range of genders, ages and various backgrounds apply.
Get in touch soon as we are going through applications continuously and would like you to join this role as soon as possible!
