Group CFO (PNO)
Leading the transition to sustainable freight
Jacob Lee Ørnstrand, CEO of PNO, on which personality traits etc. they are looking for
Together with the combined management team, you will lead one of the most relevant and visionary brands within sustainable freight.
We as a company have a clear innovation strategy and dare to bet big on the sustainable transition across an industry that bears modernization and innovation. We believe that digital solutions and cross-industry collaboration is the only right strategic positioning for a modern company undergoing international growth and expansion.
It is important to us that you have a clear commercial profile and that you will manage to fully utilize our business model and positioning in the market. The strategic model we are developing and refining these years truly is special to us. We expect that you will also bring such unique characteristics and capabilities, as an individual and as a professional, into our unity and bond.
Your role and contribution
We have a clear perspective as an innovative, family-owned company that dare to work long-term in our vision and execution, for the future of all of us and for the future of PNO’s commercial opportunities. In more than one sense we have clear, modern, and visionary values, where we expect each other to show commercial drive.
It is important to us that C-level manage to always challenge, develop, and strengthen the strategic environment with a will to show real, strategic implementation. We stand close to each other with an honest dialogue, and you will be part of real execution behind these dialogues. This only works by having the right people across our business and that agenda we are fully committed to.
Business is good, and your role will not be to clean up or transform the fundamental elements in accounting, cash-flow, or such. You will contribute strategically through a further scalable and visionary business model, and execution on this.
Your area of responsibility includes:
An active and strategically contributing member of PNO’s leadership
Close collaboration with the other members of management and the business as such
Financial planning for the Group, including consolidating input of business relevance
Foresee commercial opportunities and further develop our international positioning
Business reviews with periodic status on the business as a whole
A central and leading role on financing, treasury, and corporate finance
Ongoing international professionalization of the Group as we grow and expand
Create a team that supports the business with relevance and insights
Ensure that we always have the right understanding of financial performance and of what creates value.
You are offered a very independent role with an interesting company growing even stronger, bigger and better. Where you will have autonomy in your daily work and priorities, with the expectations of accountability that follows, and the opportunity to have direct influence on company strategy and execution.
Criteria of success in this role
It is of great importance that you live and breathe responsibility, responsiveness and that you entail trust around you as a person and the team that you lead.
Your tasks are clearly positioned around being the modern CFO. From that starting point you take strong strategic responsibility for our business as part of management. You manage to take that responsibility upon yourself and make that domain yours to keep – with a human and empathetic respect for your peers, your employees, and the value that we all bring.
As such, you are an active member of management, you lift the strategic environment, and you manage to develop the business through proactive ownership of the further development of PNO, the culture, our values, and our purpose.
