Accounting Lead

We’re looking for a sharp, driven accountant to take ownership of Elvy’s accounting. As Elvy grows, so does the role, with a clear path towards leading the accounting function. You’ll work on more than a standard close: SPV structures, asset-backed financing, a 15-year subscription model and a new electricity retail business. Elvy installs and operates solar panels, batteries and heat pumps for Swedish homeowners as one complete subscription, and has recently entered electricity retail. Every installation is financed through dedicated SPV structures and lender facilities, which makes accurate, traceable accounting central to how we grow. We have recently put new financing structures in place, and our volumes are increasing quickly. Processes, controls and reporting routines are still being shaped, which makes this a rare opportunity to join early and define how accounting at Elvy works going forward. In this role, you will report to Head of Finance and work closely with management, Operations, Tech, our external auditors and tax advisors, and the banks and investors who finance our installations. You will help build an accounting function that delivers reliable closings and reporting, and that scales through automation and continuous improvement. If you want a role where you can take real ownership, shape the finance function and see the direct impact of your work, we would love to hear from you. What you'll be doing

• Owning the monthly, quarterly and annual closings under Swedish GAAP (K3).
• Leading the accounting for our SPV structures, including intercompany invoicing, asset-backed borrowing, interest and fees.
• Working hands-on with data from our platform, ERP and our banks to automate reconciliations and reporting.
• Using AI and automation as everyday tools. We’d rather you build a smarter process than repeat a manual one.
• Delivering accurate, timely and insightful financial reporting and turning accounting data into clear, reliable numbers that management, lenders and investors can act on.
• Ensuring every installation is traceable from signing to installation and during the 15-year customer relationship.
• Preparing the annual report and acting as the main point of contact for our auditors.
• Strengthening internal controls, governance and documentation as the business scales.
• Identifying opportunities to automate, simplify and improve accounting processes.

What we're looking for You are curious and quick to learn. You understand how a transaction flows through the books, and you ask why when the numbers don’t add up.

• When you see a manual process, you think about how to automate it.
• You pick up new things fast, whether it’s an SPV, a financing facility or a new revenue stream.
• Comfortable explaining numbers to management, auditors and lenders.
• A structured, accurate way of working and a strong sense of ownership.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Business Administration or equivalent.
• 2+ years accounting experience, including monthly and quarterly closings and annual reports.
• Strong knowledge of Swedish GAAP (K3).
• Strong Excel skills, and experience with SQL or BI tools is a plus.
• Fluency in Swedish and English, written and spoken
