Tax Controller

As a Tax Controller, you will help Danske Bank meet its Finnish tax obligations through accurate financial accounting and regulatory compliance. You will use your specialist knowledge to shape how we handle these obligations, developing your expertise alongside skilled and caring colleagues.

What you will be doing

Working across finance, legal, and business units, you will help ensure the accuracy of Danske Bank’s financial records and support our obligations to Finnish authorities and internal stakeholders. You will join our accounting team in Finland that takes quality seriously and supports one another.

More specifically, you will:

• Oversee tax accounting processes and ensure compliance with Finnish tax regulations
• Prepare and review monthly tax returns, reconciliations, and related financial reports
• Be responsible for the preparation of company income tax returns for selected entities
• Contribute to monthly closing process and financial reporting
• Identify and resolve discrepancies in tax records through detailed analysis
• Contribute to process improvements that raise the quality of our accounting practices

About you

• Strong knowledge of Finnish tax legislation and financial accounting principles
• At least several years of experience with tax reporting, reconciliations, and general ledger processes
• Ability to communicate complex tax topics clearly to non-specialist colleagues
• Capability to work hands-on with numbers
• Comfortable working independently while keeping stakeholders well informed
• A collaborative mindset and a careful and methodical approach to problem-solving

Experience working in a financial institution or a professional services environment would be an advantage. Previous experience regarding Microsoft D365 is a plus as well.

What we offer you

You will be part of a supportive team based at our Finnish headquarters in Pasila, Helsinki, where collaboration and knowledge sharing are valued in everyday work. We follow a hybrid model with three to four days per week in the office, enabling both collaboration and flexibility to work in a way that fits you.
