About

With over 17 years of experience in finance and accounting, I am a seasoned professional who can provide strategic and operational leadership to DLG Service A/S, a company that offers a range of products and services to farmers and private individuals. My core competencies include financial reporting, controlling, budgeting, business strategy, and turnaround management. I am passionate about creating value for the company and its customers, and aligning my goals with the mission and culture of the DLG Group, one of the largest agricultural companies in Europe. As the Finance Manager at DLG Service A/S since 2014, I am responsible for the financial reporting and controlling of the company, which has an annual revenue of DKK 3bn. I work with suppliers and business partners to negotiate and secure favorable contracts for the company and its customers, as well as to optimize the efficiency and profitability of the company's operations. I also oversee the financial performance of the company's subsidiaries, including Land & Fritid, a chain of stores that sells products for pets, gardens, and hobbies. I leverage my accounting and budgeting skills to ensure compliance, accuracy, and transparency in all financial matters.
