The Opportunity This is an opportunity for an international payroll professional to take ownership of multi-country payroll in a growing company with operations across Norway, Sweden, Luxembourg and soon Finland. Reporting to the Finance Manager, the Payroll Specialist will ensure accurate, timely and compliant payroll across jurisdictions, coordinate external payroll providers, and strengthen the processes, controls and documentation that support a reliable employee experience. The role suits someone who enjoys working across countries, navigating local payroll requirements and building scalable routines in a high-growth international environment. Own the monthly payroll cycle in Norway, Sweden and Luxembourg: prepare and quality-assure inputs, review provider output before payment, and resolve discrepancies before pay date. Take day-to-day ownership of the external payroll provider relationships, including deadlines, service levels, escalations and periodic review, and contribute to provider selection and onboarding of new jurisdictions. Keep the group compliant locally: employer registrations, withholding tax and social security, statutory payroll reporting and filings in each operating country, supported by written country routines. Maintain payroll-relevant employee data, including absence, leave and holiday pay, terminations and final settlements. Reconcile payroll to the accounts, support year-end and audit requests, and maintain documented payroll routines and controls. Minimum 3 to 5 years of hands-on payroll administration experience, including payroll delivered through external payroll providers. Relevant post-secondary vocational qualification or bachelor's degree in payroll, accounting, finance or human resources, or equivalent relevant practical experience in payroll administration. Practical experience with payroll and employer obligations in at least one Nordic country,



with demonstrated ability to work across multiple jurisdictions. Working understanding of tax and social security withholding, statutory payroll reporting, pension schemes and employee insurance. Confident in Excel and in payroll and HR systems, with sound data handling discipline. Professional English, written and spoken, with discretion and integrity in handling salary and personal data. Structured and proactive, comfortable building process and infrastructure rather than maintaining what already exists, with a strong sense of ownership for the quality and accuracy of your deliverables. Valuable, but not required: payroll experience across several of Norway, Sweden and Luxembourg, Norwegian or Swedish language skills, and experience from a group with multiple legal entities and cross-border employment. Also valuable: experience coordinating with external law firms on employment matters, experience documenting, standardising or improving payroll routines and controls, and familiarity with payroll accounting and reconciliation towards the general ledger. Within 6 months, Fossefall has one accountable payroll owner across all locations and entities. Salaries are accurate and timely, with discrepancies caught before payment and providers meeting agreed deadlines and quality standards. Payroll reconciles cleanly to the accounts, year-end and audit requests are straightforward, and employment matters reach external counsel through one coordinated channel. Fossefall can add Finland and further jurisdictions without payroll outgrowing the process. Joining now means having the opportunity to influence how the organization grows, how teams collaborate and how high-quality work gets done. We develop and operate AI factories powered by renewable energy, turning clean Nordic power into scalable, sovereign computing capacity for Europe, built in partnership with local communities, energy producers and technology leaders across the world.
