As an Aide I - Finance within our Functional Accounting POD, you will support the financial backbone of a portfolio of Dutch SMEs. This is a full-time role focused on processing, structure and operational reliability. You work inside a system that must perform the same every month — no exceptions.

Your responsibility is simple, but not easy: keep the administrative chain clean, consistent and predictable. You execute recurring tasks, resolve discrepancies, prepare documentation, and ensure the workflow stays stable. You report in English to your POD-Leader and collaborate with our internal specialists to keep every client’s process running smoothly.

This is a technical-operational role with real impact: when the foundation is stable, the business can grow.

• Execute daily financial and administrative processing (invoices, receipts, bank entries) based on fixed workflows.
• Maintain accuracy across bookkeeping records and resolve inconsistencies proactively.
• Support month-end routines: reconciliations, checks, document preparation.
• Prepare inputs for management reports and ensure data is complete and clean.
• Monitor outstanding items, missing documents, and variances — escalate early.
• Keep client files organized, up-to-date and compliant with internal standards.
• Coordinate with your POD-Leader to deliver a predictable, error-free administrative chain.
• Contribute to small process improvements that reduce noise and prevent repeat issues.

Must Have

• A bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting or a related field.
• No experience or have years of experience in an administrative, accounting or finance-support role.
• Strong command of English; Dutch is a plus for working with source documents.
• High accuracy, discipline and respect for structured workflows.
• Ability to follow procedures consistently while spotting deviations quickly.
• Ethical handling of financial data and strict confidentiality standards.
• A proactive mindset: you fix problems before they become delays.

Nice to Have

• Experience with SMEs or portfolio/outsourced finance environments.
• Familiarity with bookkeeping systems (Odoo is a plus).
• Understanding of basic accounting concepts (margins, cash flow, reconciliation).
• Affinity with workflow improvement, standardization or LEAN principles.
• Comfort working in a team, output-driven environment.

What Makes This Role Strong

• You work inside a professional, structured POD model — no chaos, no guesswork.
• Your output directly impacts stability across multiple companies.
• You develop deep understanding of financial operations through repetition and scale.
• No office politics, no unnecessary meetings — only clear responsibilities and results.
• Room to grow into more analytical or advisory roles as you master the foundation.

Please note that the role may require onsite work in the future, depending on operational needs. Keep you informed in advance.
