Finance Specialist @itsme

As our Finance Specialist you’ll play a critical role in keeping itsme® financially healthy. You’ll be responsible for all
accounting activities within the company. This position is a real challenge you can sink your teeth into, and you’ll get ample
opportunities to take on more responsibilities as you grow in your job.

What your job looks like

  •  You carry out the day-to-day accounting tasks (Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, invoicing, credit
    collection, reconciliation, …). Moreover, you help to progressively optimize and automate these processes (e.g.
    migrating to new accounting software, automating invoicing & debt collection processes, …). That way you’ll move
    away from repetitive tasks, and you’ll consistently get more high-level and complex responsibilities.
  • You execute month and quarter end closes, and draw up itsme’s financial statements. You review financial
    performance and support in preparing forecasts and budget checks.
  • You are the main liaison for our external Accountant and ensure that the Accountant delivers what he has
    committed to. You also liaise directly with the financial auditor.
  • You support the People team in compensation & benefits topics.
  • You report to, and work closely with the Financial Manager (who will join soon) to support him/her in budgeting,
    reporting, financial analyses and financing.
  • You’ll also collaborate closely with Wouter, our Chief Growth & Financial Officer on the topics above.

Who we are looking for

  • You perform on a Master’s degree level and you have at least 2-4 years of experience in an accounting role or
    similar within the finance team.
  • Ideally you already have a solid and broad accounting expertise (AR/AP, invoicing, month & quarter closes, credit
    management, audit preparation, payroll, …).
  • You have a thorough knowledge of BGAAP, and ideally also of other international accounting frameworks.
  • Of course, you know your way around the MS Office applications and software for accounting and financial
    reporting.
  • You can combine hands-on, detail-oriented and efficient execution with taking a helicopter view to analyse and
    improve processes.
  • You think that you are quite ambitious? Great! We’re scaling fast, so we’ll be able to offer you interesting career
    development opportunities in the coming years (international expansion, …)
  • You can work autonomously and you take initiative when you see opportunities.
  • You cooperate constructively with others.
  • You like to set the bar high and like to achieve your objectives.
  • You are fluent in Dutch or French, and have a working proficiency in English.

What we offer

  • Being welcomed by an informal, enthusiastic and ambitious team that is revolutionizing how we safely manage
    our digital identity, in Belgium & beyond.
  • Offices at walking distance from Brussels Central Station and the possibility to work remotely 3 days a week.
  • Of course a contract of indefinite duration, with an attractive compensation package.
  • An environment where we care a lot about our core values:
    o Integrity: being fair, honest & transparent so that we can be trusted.
    o Inclusiveness: being an open environment in which all team members’ opinions are taken into account.
    o Innovation: building future-proof solutions by finding new ideas and methods to solve problems.
