Founded in 1966, International School of Stavanger is a non-profit Norwegian foundation (stiftelse) with approximately 550 students aged three to eighteen with nearly fifty nationalities represented in the student body. The school’s 120 employees come from many nationalities.

We are looking for a highly qualified Finance Manager (Økonomisjef), who will have financial and business organization responsibilities in both operational and strategic areas.

We seek an individual who is motivated, proactive and detailed oriented, with a desire to work in an exciting international environment with varied tasks in finance, business and accounting.

Preferably the individual will have a proven track record of successfully managing the finances of a relatively large organization. Working previously in a school is not a requirement – previous work in industry will also be compatible for many of our goals.
