Wanzl Nordic A/S has chosen to proactively engage in the green transition.

More specifically, you will have the following areas of responsibility and job tasks:

• Map the current state of the company's sustainability efforts to establish a baseline
• Develop and communicate the company's sustainability profile and green transition strategy
• Collect, analyze, and report ESG data from Nordic units to headquarters

• Engage employees and foster a sustainable company culture
• Prepare and present sustainability documentation for customers and stakeholders

You will be based in the Hadsten office where you will become part of the Finance department and work closely with colleagues in R&D, HR, Sales and Supply Chain. You refer to the Nordic CFO.

Ability to lead and navigate the green transition

We are looking for a dedicated and visionary person with a strong passion for sustainability and a desire to make a real impact on a company shaping its green future. You have extensive experience in developing and implementing ESG strategies and policies with the ability to systematize processes and drive sustainability initiatives at both strategic and operational levels.

Strong analytical skills and expertise in data collection, calculations, and reporting, including carbon footprint assessments, are essential.

Moreover, the role requires excellent project management skills with the ability to lead initiatives independently and take ownership of processes from start to finish.
