This is how you make impact
As an Assistant Controller you ensure that our financial administration is reliable, up to date, and fully auditable. You process and review financial data, support periodic closing activities, and contribute to reporting that Finance and management can rely on.
You combine day-to-day financial administration with control and reporting activities. You prepare journal entries, process provisions and financial transactions, review general ledger data, and prepare balance sheet specifications and profit and loss overviews. You also take care of VAT and CBS reporting and help ensure that financial processes and reporting comply with applicable procedures and IFRS guidelines.
You also play an important role in intercompany administration, audits, and internal controls. You process and reconcile transactions between group companies, prepare audit documentation, and maintain contact with auditors and other external parties. Internally, you work closely with Finance colleagues, management, and other departments on financial matters.
Beyond accurate execution, you actively look for ways to improve. You identify optimisation opportunities and contribute to the further digitalisation and standardisation of Finance processes. You work in a compact Finance Team together with two other Finance colleagues and report directly to the Financial Controller.
