Are you passionate about sustainability and eager to make a significant impact?

We are seeking a passionate ESG Controller to strengthen our business through innovative environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives and reporting.

Your work will directly support our strategic sustainability goals, contribute to shaping our ESG reporting framework, and drive continuous improvement across our global footprint.

We are looking for a structured and analytical individual with a strong interest in sustainability — someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, enjoys working across teams and sites, and is adaptable enough to support other central functions when needed.

  • Analyze ESG data and provide recommendations for improvements
  • Participate in other initiatives supporting the company’s strategic goals, such as process improvements, or other internal projects.
  • Ensure compliance with EU Taxonomy by mapping business practices to taxonomy classifications while facilitating transparency in reporting

This employment requires security clearance by the Norwegian National Security Authority, clearance through Civil Aviation Authority or a background check. Please note that this might affect the offer process or employment.

Qualifications

  • Relevant education in finance, accounting or sustainability.
  • Experience in ESG reporting and analysis
  • Familiarity with regulatory requirements and frameworks related to ESG and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and its standards
  • Good analytical and modelling skills and the ability to handle complex datasets
  • Experience in data visualization and reporting tools, such as Qlik/Power BI
  • Creative and solution-oriented with a proactive approach
  • Strong communication skills, both oral and written, in Norwegian and English

What we can offer

  • A meaningful role where you can make a real impact in a forward‑leaning organization
  • A supportive and collaborative work environment with colleagues who share knowledge and help each other succeed
  • Professional development through varied tasks, learning opportunities and access to internal competence networks
