Function Finance

”Together we create security in the economy, and drive work forward towards common goals.”

Function Finance's mission is to support all projects and functions when it comes to financial and cost management. In addition, the function works with quality assurance at all levels and ensures that operations comply with statutory requirements.

This involves close collaboration with all projects and functions, to create a holistic view finding room for both details and an overall perspective. The focus is on, in collaboration with the programme management, creating security and trust with various external stakeholders, such as the owners of the operation in the form of the municipalities and also the rest of VA SYD.

─ We are the cohesive link for all finances in the programme, and thus an important part of the entire delivery. When we together guarantee that everything is financially correct, people can focus on their core areas. By creating security in the economy, we contribute to the work moving forward according to the current plan, says Susan Melsen.

Close collaboration opens up solutions

The work is about implementing common processes and structures, while also being flexible and finding solutions to situations that arise along the way. To succeed in the assignment, it is important to be involved in all projects and functions, to gain a deeper understanding of what lies behind each number.

─ This work is never monotonous, but offers an exciting dynamic between things we know well and new challenges. It's especially fun to see colleagues who may not have previously seen the benefits of close collaboration, open up. Together we find ways forward and achieve common goals.
