Financial operations are at the core of our business. We’re looking for a hands-on AR Specialist who takes ownership of our Accounts Receivable process while supporting broader finance operations.
This role combines execution and improvement: from managing invoicing and collections to spotting opportunities to make processes more efficient over time. You’ll play a key role in keeping our financial operations running smoothly, while working closely with teams across the business.
You’ll join a collaborative Finance & Legal team where we support each other, move fast, and continuously look for ways to improve, without losing sight of what needs to get done today.

- Proven experience within the Dutch finance/accounting landscape
- A relevant degree (e.g. Accounting, Finance) is a plus
- Solid understanding of invoicing processes (this is key)
- Comfortable working in hands-on, manual processes, with attention to detail
- Experience with ERP systems (Exact or similar); Salesforce is a strong plus
- Experience with month-end tasks and general financial operations
- Strong communication skills, you’re comfortable working with stakeholders across teams and following up when needed
- A proactive, go-getter mindset: you take initiative and don’t wait for things to come to you
- You spot improvement opportunities and act on them, while understanding that change takes time
What makes someone successful here
- You enjoy bringing structure and clarity
- You’re not afraid of repetitive work, and you take pride in getting it right
- You balance doing the work today with improving it for tomorrow
- You’re comfortable working with Sales and other stakeholders to get things done
