WHY OATLY?

Across the world people’s consumption habits and diets are evolving to be more plant-based. Enter Oatly, the #1 oat based dairy alternative producer in the world with products spanning multiple categories.

We’re determined on being part of the discussion on the long-term future of the food and beverage industry. To keep this movement going, we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the Oatly flowing.

Our sole purpose as a company is to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.

WHAT WE NEED YOU TO DO

We are seeking a detail-oriented and analytical Cash Controller to manage and optimize the company’s cash flow, liquidity, and banking operations. The ideal candidate will ensure accurate cash forecasting, monitor daily cash positions, and support treasury operations to maintain financial stability and efficiency. The position will play an important role in the transition of our cash functions from manual processes to a more automated solution. You will work closely with our Treasury team as well as other different departments at Oatly.

Here’s the main elements of the role...

Handling intercompany settlements and reconciliations.
Assist in developing and implementing cash management policies and procedures.
Provide regular reports and analysis to senior management on cash position and liquidity.
Support internal and external audits related to the cash function.
Be prepared for ad hoc workflow - you are a punctual team player, who works independently with tight deadlines.

But, you know. These are just the things we can think of right now! This might be the job today, but tomorrow brings more change, so being light on your feet and willing to embrace the unknown is a verrrrrry big help.

The location for this role is at Malmo HQ.
