Job description

Your impact begins here As Capex Project Controller, you will own the financial control of investment projects in CMC Development, from business case through execution and close-out. You will give project managers and directors a clear, forecastable view of performance against approved scope, budget and schedule, and turn project data into recommendations they can act on. Your work keeps investments transparent and within approved funding, so decisions are made on solid ground and at pace. What you’ll bring You are analytical, structured and commercially minded. You combine attention to detail with a clear view of the whole project, and you communicate deviations and recommendations with confidence. You will also bring: A relevant master’s degree. At least 5 years of project-controlling experience in Capex or investment projects. Strong skills in budgeting, forecasting, cost and cash-flow control, variance analysis and estimate-at-completion reporting. Knowledge of Capex governance and accounting, including IAS 16 and IAS 36. Advanced Excel skills and strong SAP experience. Strong stakeholder skills and the confidence to challenge assumptions constructively. Fluent English and a valid work permit for Denmark. Useful, but not essential: Experience with Power BI.

You will: Own budgets, baselines, forecasts, cash-flow plans and monthly reporting for your assigned Capex projects. Control commitments, actuals, accruals, contingencies, changes and estimate at completion, so performance is always visible. Explain deviations, quantify risks and opportunities, and escalate material issues early. Support investment decisions, change control and gate approvals with robust analysis and constructive challenge. Ensure Capex governance and accounting compliance, while strengthening Capex-control standards, tools and reporting across CMC Development.

It is a collaborative, high-visibility team where transparent data and disciplined execution directly influence investment outcomes. Your closest partners will be the project managers and directors running your assigned investments. You will also work with system developers on data integration and reporting, and with colleagues across CMC Development who rely on clear, timely financial insight.
