Finance Controller

SYBO is part of the Miniclip family and known for the widely popular game, Subway Surfers - the most downloaded mobile game in the world, with over four billion downloads. Located in the heart of Copenhagen, we aim to create playful moments that inspire our fans to care.

We’re looking for our new Finance Controller to join us at the very core of the business, and yes, that’s Finance (according to a totally objective internal survey).

You’ll work with reporting, financial operations, and the usual fundamentals, but you’ll be joining a team that’s constantly looking to improve how things are done. We care about building a Finance function that is efficient, thoughtful, and always a step ahead, especially when it comes to using new technology.

That means we’re not just talking about optimization, we expect you to enjoy it. Whether it is spotting a manual process that should not be manual, building a smarter way of working, or thinking “I can automate this” - that mindset is key here. We are actively exploring how AI can support our workflows in a meaningful way, and we are looking for someone who is curious enough to challenge both themselves and the team along the way.

We work closely together and share responsibilities across the team, so you will not be limited to a narrow scope. Instead, you will have the opportunity to get involved across different areas of Finance, explore new ideas, and contribute to how we continue to evolve as a function.

Come join us, and you will be part of a team that takes pride in running a strong, reliable Finance setup that supports everything we build at SYBO.
