The Role:

As Finance Specialist, you are the financial backbone of our business. You know your debit/credit in and out, but actually, you hate to do bookkeeping.

So why not automate all of it?

This role will allow you to create business value and lift your skills to new heights at the same time. Your passion for automation will allow you to focus on controlling tasks and makes this a great stepping stone into a Business Controlling position.

  • 3-5 years of experience working as a financial accountant, auditor or similar
  • Previous experience from working in a start-up or growth environment is an advantage
  • Extensive knowledge of Danish payroll, Tax/VAT regulations & requirements and general knowledge about the Danish financial setup is a must
  • Additional knowledge of the US or German tax and financial system would be an advantage
  • Fluent in English, both spoken and in writing to ensure communication with local third parties and our colleagues across the World.
  • Excited about working in an international and diverse culture
  • A track-record of automating financial workflows and a drive to get things done.

 

About Linkfire:

We’re a passionate team of music techies on a mission to make music consumption easier for fans, labels, and artists. The music industry is transforming constantly, the market is fragmented and split across many different platforms and services.

Physical sales are going down. Legal downloads and in particular streaming are gaining momentum.

The transformation will continue and the years to come will be very interesting. We want to contribute to the transformation by bringing music and fans closer. Not inside music services, but outside where fans and artists engage. Our approach is to index digital music across music services and provide smart links that route fans directly to the music regardless of their location or which player or platform they use. It’s complex.

We make it simple.

 

What we offer:

  • The opportunity to work in one of the fastest growing music tech companies in the world
  • An open, informal entrepreneurial startup working environment
  • An awesome, international office with colleagues from 20+ different nationalities
  • Great career possibilities
  • Flexible working hours and a healthy work-life balance.

Is that you? If so, submit your application in English and we’ll be in touch!
