Finance Graduate

Join our Finance Graduate Programme

The programme, based in Group Finance, in the Central Office (HQ) of the Carlsberg Group in Copenhagen, takes our graduates through the different operations within a multinational Finance function. Throughout the 2-year programme consisting of three rotations, you will be exposed to several of the key disciplines in Finance: Accounting, Consolidation, Financial Planning, External Reporting, and Management Reporting. During the first two rotations in Group Finance, you will be working across regions and markets. The third rotation will be in a group-wide project or in the market outside the Central Office. Rotations will allow you to:

• constantly communicate with colleagues in Carlsberg subsidiaries, regions, and functions in headquarters as part of your day-to-day work
• build a global network of highly skilled and motivated colleagues
• deep dive into accounting practices, ensuring Carlsberg’s financials are ready for internal and external use
• build extensive knowledge of the Group’s key financial systems, processes, and internal controls
• participate in creating, analyzing, and commenting on the financial reports and performance of Carlsberg
• work directly with senior management, both regularly, as well as for ad hoc finance projects
• be involved in projects and assignments directly related to the needs of Group Finance
• supporting finance operations in a Carlsberg subsidiary or in our Service Centre.

What we’re looking for with our future Finance Graduates

As a programme candidate, one of your most remarkable characteristics is your passion and your continuous strive for results. You are a skilled communicator with great presentation skills, and you understand how to convey sometimes complex information in a clear and understandable language. Changing situations and requirements does not scare you and even when things get tough, you stay focused, positive, and proactive. You have excellent analytical skills and a structured approach to your work. You can easily learn new technologies and apply them to your work. All the above you combine with a “can do” attitude and focus on succeeding together with others.

It's a requirement for all our global programmes that you:

• Have a relevant master's degree (or will obtain it this coming Summer)
• Speak and write in English at a high level
• Have relevant working experience including student jobs

What you can expect from the Programme

We’re expecting a lot, but we will give you just as much in return. You can expect that you will:

• Gain a solid understanding of Finance processes in Carlsberg
• Expand your toolbox of core Finance capabilities
• Grow both professionally and personally
• Be exposed to different environments both culturally and functionally
• Be given a lot of freedom and responsibility
• Experience many different aspects of the Carlsberg Group and its culture
• Be assigned a mentor and buddy
• Be offered great opportunities to network both within your function, with the other graduates and across the organization
