SHAPING NEW TOMORROW
Dato: for 2 dage siden
By: Aalborg, Region Nordjylland
Kontrakttype: Fuld tid

Do you want to become part of a fast-growing and innovative company that is disrupting the Fashion Industry? Over the past years, SHAPING NEW TOMORROW has developed from being an ambitious start-up with ten employees to a fast-growing scale-up company with strong financials to support the journey. We are now over 220 Shaper colleagues, and we all love being part of an informal and unique employee culture – we call it The Shaper Community.
As our operations and presence continue to expand across multiple markets – including Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Portugal, the US, and more to come – our Finance setup is evolving in both complexity and scale.
We are looking for an experienced and proactive Accounting Lead who thrives in taking ownership of daily operational tasks. You find motivation in keeping things running smoothly and efficiently, and you are driven by continuously refining and improving processes.
You take pride in timeliness and precision, especially when handling payroll, VAT, tax submissions, and other critical financial operations. You excel in creating routines, structure, and clarity for your team and stakeholders.
Financial expertise with a hands-on and coordinating mindset
As Accounting Lead, your main tasks will be to maintain accurate and up-to-date financial records for the SHAPING NEW TOMORROW Group. You will be an active part of the daily execution yourself and will be responsible for ensuring the progress and timely completion of tasks in an accounting team of two dedicated finance assistants - you have the professional responsibility but not the managerial role.
Key Responsibilities
You will become part of our strong internal Shaper Community with a unique and warm employee culture with room for freedom and a strong emphasis on personal development. We are full of ideas, open-minded, transparent, and always ready to embrace changes. Being part of SHAPING NEW TOMORROW, you should expect to be working together with intelligent, motivated, and passionate people in a dynamic work environment.

In 2015, the story of SHAPING NEW TOMORROW began in the city of Aalborg, Denmark. Three childhood friends set out to change the way we think of traditional menswear, by seamlessly blending the comfort of sportswear with the style of casual business attire. From these beginnings, SHAPING NEW TOMORROW has since grown and evolved into an innovative, tech-oriented, and international clothing brand.
