Vacancies

Are you interested in professional leadership? And do you have an eye for how data can be used? ARKEN is looking for a strong Head of Accounting who can act as a player-coach and also take on the controller role within a small but strong accounting organization.

ARKEN Museum of Contemporary Art is undergoing rapid development. We are in the middle of establishing a new, data-driven accounting unit focused on strengthening the museum’s financial management, thereby ensuring that the resources available to the museum are used effectively to support its exhibition program and diverse event offerings for the benefit of its many visitors.
As Head of Accounting, you will lead a small team consisting of two accounting assistants and yourself on a daily basis. You will work closely with the Director of House and People, to whom you will also report.
You will hold a central position in a strong cultural institution with high ambitions on behalf of both art and audiences—and where we are equally ambitious when it comes to financial management.

About the position:
As Head of Accounting, in close collaboration with the Director of House and People, you will be responsible for providing strategic advice and sparring on financial matters and financial reporting to ARKEN’s management and other budget-responsible staff within the organization.

You will support both operational and strategic financial tasks, including budgeting, ongoing budget follow-up, support for grant applications, financial reporting, annual accounts, and close, continuous collaboration with the two colleagues you will be professionally leading on a daily basis.
