Finance Assistant Part-Time
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.
TASKS & RESPONSIBILITIES
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.
EXPERIENCE & SKILLS
- 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.
WORKPLACE & CULTURE
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!
