Posted on Thu, Apr 23, 2026
About the role:
As ESG Reporting Manager at Landal, you will play a key role in shaping and executing Landal’s Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) strategy. You ensure the integrity, completeness and reliability of ESG data, build a strong reporting and control framework, and secure full alignment with European standards, most notably the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and ESRS requirements.Landal is at the stage where the foundations must be built. The Double Materiality Assessment and a first gap analysis have been completed, but data ownership, quality and control structures still need to be developed. Your primary mission is to turn these insights into a structured, audit‑ready ESG reporting framework so that Landal can confidently publish its first CSRD‑compliant report for FY 2027.
You operate with significant autonomy as the company’s internal expert on ESG reporting, data and assurance. Working closely with colleagues in Finance, Sustainability, Operations, HR and Risk, you will translate regulation into practical processes, strengthen data governance, and embed ESG principles into Landal’s planning, reporting and decision‑making. This is a hands‑on role for someone who enjoys both building structure from the ground up and influencing change across the organisation.

ESG data management and controls
Design and implement a data ownership model with clear responsibilities for data capture, validation, and retention;
Define internal controls and documentation standards in line with KPMG assurance expectations;
Work with IT and data teams to centralize ESG data through structured templates and (eventually) a sustainability reporting tool.

Prepare for external audit through robust control documentation, sample testing, and reconciliation procedures;
Monitor regulatory updates and ensure Landal’s reporting policies remain compliant with CSRD, ESRS, and EU Taxonomy.

• 6–10 years of experience in finance, reporting, or risk & control; at least 2–3 years in ESG/CSRD implementation;
• Proven success in building data and control frameworks in preparation for audit or regulatory change;
• Strong working knowledge of CSRD, ESRS, EU Taxonomy, and GHG Protocol;
• Structured, analytical, and able to simplify complex regulation into clear deliverables;
