Ola J Hedin

Controller

I specialise in financial analysis, planning, and controlling for education and research at IKOS. Leading the IKOS finance team, I provide strategic insight and data to support the Head of Department and other leaders in making informed decisions.

Presentation

The IKOS Finance Team

The IKOS Finance Team consists of Controllers, Financial Officers, and Coordinators. Together with the Administrative Staff, we support Division Heads, their Directors of Studies, and their various Research Leaders. My primary focus is strategy and long-term financial planning. I also lead the Finance Team and oversee all financial operations at IKOS.

As a team, we believe in the power of collaboration. By coaching, consulting, and assisting one another, we ensure high quality and cost-effectiveness in our work. We provide financial reports and related services to researchers, and safeguard LiU’s regulatory compliance in the financial area. We strive to develop new solutions that reduce bureaucracy and streamline our financial processes.

My Role, Networks and Goals

Since 2023, I have been leading the team and am responsible for coordinating all of IKOS’s financial processes. I am part of the Department Management Group and I report on and advise regarding financial matters to the Departmental Board and Advisory Council. My main responsibilities include budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting, and supporting the Head and Deputy Heads of Department.

I want every leader at IKOS to have a solid understanding of their division’s finances, along with access to clear and comprehensible decision-making materials that contribute to effective and sustainable leadership in research and education.
