Student work · To Øl HQ

We are looking for a talented accounting-focused student for our finance function who supports the entire organization with day-to-day bookkeeping, recording cash transactions, performing bank reconciliations, and other critical financial tasks.

Who is To Øl?

To Øl is a young Danish craft brewery founded in 2010. We are striving to deliver the highest quality beer and get it into the hands of people in the most sustainable way. In 2019, we acquired the old Beauvais factory in Svinninge, where we established a modern brewery. We brew a wide range of different beers, and our commitment to quality and innovation has enabled us to export our products to more than 31 countries.

Our team consists of over 50 dedicated people with different skills from 23 countries. We have different backgrounds, life stories and areas of expertise — and we love this diversity because we believe it makes our work and products better.

You will be working in SAP and e-conomic, making postings and reconciliations within the system. This will provide you with valuable experience working with 2 of the most commonly used ERP systems in Denmark and the world.

You will work report directly to our Head of Finance, James Parsons. The position will consider both applicants in Copenhagen or Svinninge.

  • Excellence in task management and task completion, as the daily bookkeeping and month-end close responsibilities in a timely manner are critical in running the business.

  • Familiarity with Google Workspace and Slack. Additionally, familiarity with SAP is a strong plus but not required.
