One of Nordic Investin’s partner companies is looking for a Project Controller, with Nordic Investin leading the recruitment process. You can make project economics visible early enough for delivery leaders to act, not simply explain the variance after it is fixed. You will own financial follow up, forecasting and commercial insight across the lifecycle, working closely with project managers, procurement and accounting. Controlling is expected to connect financial results with the operational and commercial drivers behind them. Credibility will come from both financial discipline and curiosity about the business. As a specialist, you will own a defined professional area and be trusted to move work forward independently. You are expected to recognise when a question requires wider expertise, explain recommendations clearly and improve the methods or tools used by colleagues around you. What you will do

Establish project budgets, structures and financial baselines. Track cost, revenue, cash flow and forecast at completion. Analyse variances and challenge project assumptions. Support change orders, claims and commercial decisions. Prepare project reporting and portfolio summaries. Ensure correct accounting, accruals and financial documentation. What you will bring

Experience in project controlling or project based finance. Understanding of project accounting and revenue recognition. Confidence partnering with project managers and engineers. Advanced spreadsheet and ERP skills. Experience that would add value

Construction, engineering, energy or technology projects. Earned value or percentage of completion methods. Contract and claims exposure. A background that can succeed here

You may come from project accounting, business control or commercial project management. What makes the opportunity interesting

The role offers clear ownership and direct influence over project decisions. Your analysis will help protect margin, cash and delivery credibility across work with tangible outcomes. Nordic Investin will make sure you understand the context, expectations and decision path before you are asked to commit significant time. You do not need every optional credential if your core experience transfers and you can explain how you would close the gap. Nordic Investin welcomes candidates with different routes into the profession and assesses applicants on relevant capability, judgement and potential.
