Are you a seasoned finance professional with experience in a regulated financial services environment, ready to expand your horizons? Are you passionate about precision, control, and contributing to a mission that drives real-world impact? If so, we have an exceptional opportunity for you.
Our client is an industry-leading, mission driven fund based in Amsterdam. This is your chance to join their collaborative and dynamic international team of 40 people representing 25 different nationalities as they scale their exciting operations across Europe.
As the AVP Finance, Reporting & Control, you'll play a pivotal role in building and refining processes, strengthening internal controls, and shaping the framework for operational excellence in a growing organization. This is far from a typical "boxed-in" role. It's an opportunity to orchestrate a variety of financial and operational responsibilities while collaborating cross-functionally.
What You'll Be Doing
In this role, you'll be a key player supporting the CFO and working closely with a VP, while collaborating with a talented global team. Your responsibilities will span across three critical focus areas:
Reporting and Financial Oversight
- Prepare and publish financial, portfolio, and regulatory reports.
- Support the preparation of unaudited and audited financial statements, disclosures, and budgeting processes.
Compliance and Operational Control
- Perform regular financial, operational, compliance, and IT controls.
- Propose and implement process efficiencies while managing incident resolution.
- Lead supplier risk assessments and monitor third-party service providers.
Projects and Strategic Input
- With a seat at the table for product development discussions, you'll provide critical input into new processes that center on accounting, valuation, operational efficiencies, and control systems.
- Prepare key reports and presentations for board and shareholder meetings.
What Makes This Opportunity Unique
- You'll be part of a small, collaborative team in a high-growth international environment, where care, drive, respect, and trust are the pillars of the work culture.
- You'll have ownership and the freedom to build something from the ground up, giving you the opportunity to design and refine financial and control frameworks in a dynamic setting.
- You'll work on meaningful projects with real-world impact.
- With two days of remote work per week and flexibility in working hours (36-40 is ideal), this organization values work-life balance while maintaining professional excellence.
What We're Looking For
To thrive in this role, you embody a rare blend of precision and big-picture thinking. Your experience and personality demonstrate that you're not just a doer-you're a thinker, strategist, and problem-solver.
- Experience: 4-6+ years in finance, reporting, or compliance within a regulated financial services environment.
- Education: A Bachelor's degree (or higher) in finance, accounting, economics, or business. ACCA, CFA, or similar certifications are highly desirable.
- Expertise: Strong knowledge of IFRS standards (notably IFRS 9 and 13), with advanced MS Excel skills (VBA/Power Query experience preferable).
- Mindset: You are proactive, detail-oriented, and methodical. You thrive when managing multiple tasks calmly and efficiently.
- Soft Skills: You're collaborative, energetic, and take pride in mentoring teams while respecting processes and ensuring accurate delivery.
- Languages: Fluency in English is required.
What We Offer
- A competitive gross annual salary between €70K-85K (inclusive of holiday allowance).
- Annual bonus potential ranging from 20%-25%.
- The opportunity to work in a dynamic organization with a flat structure where your ideas will be welcomed and celebrated.
- A modern work environment with flexible working options (2 WFH days) and an emphasis on professional development in a fast-paced, supportive team.
