Summary Generated by Built In

Nofence is a Norwegian scale up who has built the world’s first virtual fencing solution for livestock. As we aim to revolutionize livestock management we will need top-notch competence in our Finance team, and we are now looking for a Finance & Accounting Specialist. Elevate your career with us and be at the forefront of innovation in agricultural technology!

The role

Nofence has built the world's first virtual fencing solution for livestock, and we're growing fast across Norway, the UK, Ireland, Spain, and the US. The finance function is scaling with us, and we need someone to take full ownership of accounting operations in Norway - while also being the go-to person for accounting matters across the group.

You will handle the full range of day-to-day accounting work - posting supplier invoices, booking receipts, processing expenses, reconciling accounts - and own the end-to-end accounting process in Norway. You liaise with local accounting firms in other markets, and are the first point of contact when questions come in from other countries. You work closely with Amesto in Norway on monthly closing and coordinate with the wider finance team on reporting, compliance, and audit.

But just as important as keeping the books clean: we want someone who looks at every process and asks how it can be done better. We highly value automation and AI initiatives, and you will have both the mandate and space to use them.

What you'll own

The Norwegian accounting process. The full transaction layer - posting supplier invoices, interpreting and coding incoming bills, booking receipts, processing employee expenses, payment runs, AR and AP follow-up. Accuracy in account and cost center allocation is key. You will own the accounting processes end-to-end, with Amesto as a close partner on the more complex tasks.

Group liaison. You are the accounting point of contact for our international subsidiaries and their local accounting firms. Questions from Sweden, Spain, the UK, or the US come to you first.

Customer and employee support. You will handle the 2nd line of finance support cases and make sure colleagues and customers get clear, timely answers.

Process development. Identify where manual work can be automated, where AI can reduce friction, and where our accounting processes need to scale.

Compliance and audit support. Be involved in Skattefunn reporting, audit documentation, intercompany reconciliation, and making sure the right things are in the right place when they need to be.

What we're looking for
  • Relevant education and experience in accounting and bookkeeping

  • Solid knowledge of Norwegian accounting standards

  • Someone who takes pride in accurate books and a well-maintained ledger

  • Comfortable working in English with international colleagues and partners

  • Genuinely curious about automation and new tools, not just open to it

  • Fluent English oral and written communication skills. Our working language is English.

Why this is worth your time

This role is for someone who genuinely enjoys the craft of finance & accounting - clean books, zero inbox, good structure and processes, everything reconciled and in its place. But also someone who looks at a manual process and can't help thinking there's a better way to do it.

At Nofence you get both. Real ownership of the accounting function, international scope, and the mandate to bring modern tools into a function that has plenty of room to evolve.

If that combination sounds like you, we'd like to hear from you.

About the team

At Nofence, we are not your typical 9-to-5 gig. We are a dynamic scale-up, where dedication and innovation are the norm, offering great opportunities for your personal and professional growth. We are passionate about product development, animal welfare, farmer welfare and sustainable agriculture. We genuinely believe our grazing technology is the biggest technological change in agriculture since the tractor!
The People and Finance team is currently a team of 6 employees. We believe in seeing results fast and with us your work won't be lost in the bureaucratic shuffle. You'll witness the immediate impact of your contributions in real-time!
Be part of a team that’s always looking forward, where your ideas and creativity are not only welcomed but also essential to our mutual success!

About the Application

Are you ready to change pasture? Just like the soil needs a balanced diversity of nutrients to thrive, a company needs a diversity of hearts and minds. We are an equal opportunity employer!
We will evaluate candidates continuously. If you have any questions about Nofence or regarding the application, please reach out to our VP of Finance, Kristian H. Rasmussen at [email protected].
