Danmarks Miljøportal, 8 July 2025

Over the past few years, Danmarks Miljøportal has undergone a remarkable transformation—from primarily delivering registration systems for environmental and nature data entry to now providing advanced decision-support tools for large-scale socio-economic and environmental challenges. Examples include MARS, the central system for the Green Tripartite Agreement; KAMP, which supports climate adaptation; and EA Tools, used for environmental assessments.

This shift has led to a significant increase in our activity level—from approximately DKK 45 million to DKK 85 million annually. At the same time, the complexity of our financial management has grown, as additional funding now comes from a broad range of sources, including the state, municipalities, regions, and both Danish and EU-based research and development programmes.

We are therefore seeking a Finance manager to help us build the necessary processes and structures to manage this increased complexity. In your role, you will be supported by an accounting assistant responsible for bookkeeping and related tasks.
Qualifications
You will typically have worked for a long time with financial management. Maybe you are at the end of your career and want a meaningful job where you can use the many skills you have gained through your previous positions, maybe it is completely different motives that drive you.

  • Experience and knowledge of financial management in the central government, both in relation to systems and regulatory frameworks.
  • Experience with financial management from a private consultant or IT company.
  • Experience with budgeting and budget follow-up.
  • Experience with accounting and bookkeeping.
  • Experience with the preparation of management presentations on finances and prioritization options.

As a person, you are conscientious, orderly and able to present complex financial issues in an understandable way. You are a person who rests in yourself and is able to handle disagreements professionally. You value an informal working environment where the focus is on joint task solving rather than individual performance.

What we offer
A working climate with skilled, nice and helpful colleagues and partners, where we work together to address some of the major societal challenges with the transition to a sustainable society. The opportunity to shape our financial management based on your experience and expertise. Possibility of two weekly homework days and flexible meeting times.

Salary and terms of employment
Salary and terms of employment are in accordance with the collective agreement in force at any given time between the Ministry of Finance and a number of Akademiker organisations for academics in the state (the Akademiker collective agreement).

Additional Info
Further information can be obtained on our website and by contacting Head of Secretariat Nils Høgsted on tel. 31 75 04 27 or Operations Manager Ane Klok on tel. 31 36 17 27.

How to apply
You apply for the position online by sending your application, CV, diploma, etc. no later than 10 August 2025. Send the application here.

We expect to hold interviews on 15 August. If you are unable to attend an interview on 15 August due to holidays or other reasons, please write this in your application and suggest another time.
