Are you skilled in financial management and eager to apply your expertise in an organization that makes a difference for people in vulnerable situations every day?
Then the Red Cross is looking for an experienced and ambitious Senior Consultant for a key position in the Finance Department.
As a senior profile in the Business Finance & Analyses section, you will play a central role in further developing financial management in the Red Cross. You will work closely with management and key stakeholders, ensuring that strategic and financial decisions are made based on solid data—and are implemented effectively.
Your primary responsibilities will include:

- Following up on strategic financial initiatives and efforts
- Further developing financial management tools and processes
- Acting as a sparring partner for managers and project leaders on financial matters
- Participating in cross-organizational development projects with a focus on finance and governance
Are you an analytical and proactive profile with strong collaboration skills?
We are looking for a colleague who not only possesses strong professional competencies, but who is also collaborative and able to build strong relationships and achieve results in cooperation with others—across disciplines and organizational levels. You work systematically, are curious about process improvement, and thrive when taking responsibility for tasks that require both overview and attention to detail.
We also imagine that you:
- Are analytically strong
- Hold a relevant academic degree, e.g., cand.merc., cand.polit., or equivalent
- Have at least 5 years of experience in a similar position in a larger organization
- Have solid experience with financial management, reporting, and analysis
- Ideally have experience in developing financial processes and using digital tools
- Preferably have knowledge of—or experience with—Power BI and using visualization in management reporting
A meaningful job where you can help set the direction
