Job description
As a Finance Specialist, you’ll be the financial architect, keeping our accounting operations running seamlessly. You’ll work with a dynamic team, connect with various departments, and build financial processes that support our exciting growth journey. Your mission: to ensure our financial foundations are rock-solid and ready for expansion!

Your Daily Building Blocks:

  • Keep our accounts payable (AP) and accounts receivable (AR) running smoothly—no missing pieces!
  • Master the art of debt collection, ensuring we get paid on time, every time.
  • Manage bank transactions and keep our cash flow as sturdy as a LEGO tower.
  • Assist with tax filing and ensure we stay on top of compliance.
  • Help with payroll processing (or oversee our outsourced payroll partner).
  • Maintain company assets like laptops, keys, and other essential bricks in our structure.
  • Work with the finance team to allocate costs smartly and create clear, actionable reports.
  • Turn finance into a proactive powerhouse—helping the team move from memory-based tracking to a data-driven organization.
  • Get involved in ERP migration projects and help build our future systems.
  • Provide financial insights that level up decision-making across the business.
Qualifications
Must-Haves:

  • Expert in bookkeeping tools—you know your way around financial software!
  • Fluent in English (spoken and written).
  • Proactive problem-solver, always looking for ways to improve and optimize.
  • Strong communication skills—finance should be as easy to understand as following LEGO instructions!
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-growing environment and adapt to evolving processes.
Nice-to-Haves:

  • Experience with Exact Online or other financial systems.
  • Knowledge of Dutch tax laws (We work with external accountants, but we’re looking to upgrade our controls).
  • Willingness to learn payroll processing (or manage the outsourced payroll partner).

  • Impact: Help shape our finance function in an exciting, fast-moving company.
  • Creative Autonomy: Finance is more than numbers—it’s about building smarter, better processes.

  • Lunch is on us and on Fridays, we get food from one of our favorite local eateries delivered to the office.
  • We’ve got your travel expenses covered too.
  • After putting in all effort, we want to make sure you can unwind too. If you work a 40-hour week, you’ll have 24 vacation days, and we will offer you the possibility to work remotely for 2 weeks per year.
