Help us steer the financial backbone of sustainable shipping.

At Coach Solutions, we build maritime software that helps global shipping companies sail smarter, greener, and more profitably. Now backed by Kongsberg Maritime, we’re entering a new growth phase – scaling our architecture, strengthening our financial foundation, and preparing for global impact.

We’re looking for a Financial Controller who thrives at the intersection of structure, data, and business partnership – someone who brings clarity, stability, and insight into a fast-evolving environment.

Your Impact

You’ll be the anchor of our Finance function – ensuring financial precision, strong internal control, and reliable reporting that enables sound decision-making. Working closely with the Junior Financial Controller and the CEO, you’ll be the key link between day-to-day accounting and strategic finance, ensuring our financial engine runs smoothly and scales sustainably.

• Supporting budgeting, forecasting, and long-term planning through data accuracy and continuous process improvement.
• Preparing and managing annual audit materials and maintaining strong relationships with external auditors.
• Identifying opportunities to automate, simplify, and elevate our financial workflows and systems (ERP, BI, and reporting tools).

What makes this role exciting

• You’ll own the financial heartbeat of a high-impact SaaS business and see your work directly shape leadership decisions.
• You’ll be hands-on in both numbers and systems, but close enough to strategy to see the “why” behind it all.
• You’ll upgrade our financial processes – turning complexity into clarity through data and precision.
• You’ll work closely with a CEO who values collaboration, structure, and calm under pressure.
• You’ll have the freedom to refine, improve, and build – not just maintenance.

• A close-knit Finance and Operations team in Nordhavn, with 38 colleagues in Copenhagen and 50 globally.
• A flexible, informal work culture where we actually like each other and value trust, respect, and humor over hierarchy.
