Are you passionate about the interplay between strategy and finance? Do you want to be part of a team whose primary tasks are to provide strategic and tactical advice to the management of Scandinavia's largest insurance company?
We are looking for a skilled and collaborative team player for our Strategic Finance team. The ideal candidate will provide qualified advice and sparring to Tryg's executive management, delivering proactive insights through quantitative, financial, and strategic analyses.
About the job | Create Insights through Analyses and Projects
In this role, you will be responsible for driving a number of analyses and projects, where you, in close collaboration with specialists, will create insights for use in decision-making at the highest level of the organization.
Your tasks will be various and can include (depending on your level of experience):
- Providing strategic and actionable recommendations as a trusted advisor to Tryg's executive management, through holding a holistic overview of the CFO area.
- Performing quantitative analyses to support strategic decision-making and provide data-driven insights to senior executives.
- Monitoring and analyzing financial indicators to identify potential risks and opportunities that could impact Tryg's business.

In the job, you will have a great opportunity to put your stamp on the tasks and their solutions, and we are always open to challenging the status quo. Your continuous development and learning are also important to us, and through sparring and coaching, we ensure that you are always well-prepared to solve your tasks, but also continuously learn new things, so your toolbox expands.
About you | Strong Analytical and Communication Skills
To succeed in the role, you have a quantitative understanding with an interest in finance, and you are curious, proactive, and willing to learn. At the same time, it is important that you are a fast learner and that you can easily switch between detail and overview.
We imagine that you have:
- A theoretical education at the master's level with a quantitative focus (e.g., cand.oecon, cand.polit, cand.merc.(mat), mathematics-economics) with good results.
- 2-5 years of relevant experience from, for example, tier 1 consulting, in-house consulting, or similar, which has given you a solid toolbox for problem-solving.
- Strong analytical skills.
- Good communication skills that enable you to translate complex financial analyses into easily understandable insights.
- Ability to prioritize and work on multiple tasks simultaneously.
- Capability to build relationships across the business.
- Ability to communicate clearly in English, and also in a Scandinavian language, both verbally and in writing.
Additionally, it would be a plus if you have an interest and/or flair for digitalization.
