At a glance
Passionate about finance and leadership? As the head of our accounting teams, you'll shape strategy, enhance reporting quality, and foster continuous improvement. Take on a central role, bridging stakeholders and financial data, while mentoring a talented team. Join ABN AMRO and lead us toward financial excellence and innovation.
Your job
You formulate goals and targets for your department taking into consideration the strategy of the bank. You take care of executing your own year plan as well as the Accounting year plan (OKR) together with the other Accounting department heads.
You motivate people to continuously improve our accounting processes and procedures. You are keen on keeping up with changes in rules and regulations and the impact they have on the Accounting organization and you function in this as a sparring partner of the Head of Accounting.
You are great in stakeholder management in a complex environment as you have a pivotal role between our front office stakeholders and the finance closing chain that ultimately leads to ABN AMRO's financial figures. You take care of the quality and timeliness of the figures and disclosures you deliver for the reporting units to our stakeholders.
You are member of the MT Accounting and are able to translate strategic and tactical changes into operational actions for your team. You know how to take care of a financial closing process and know how to assure reliability in our accounting and reporting processes while also contributing to changing our finance landscape (o.a. general ledger) to ensure a sustainable solution for the future.
Whilst you act as a generalist with a helicopter view, you are able to get to the bottom of things when necessary. You like the financial complexity of the products we work with and you are keen on delivering your part in bringing our performance to an even higher level of quality.
You are familiar with the complex environment that Global Markets and ALM operate in and you are a valuable contribution to the business. You participate in several business committees such as the Business Risk Committees (BRC's) as well as the KMT Global Markets. You are quick to translate current events (e.g. economic or regulatory) into appropriate actions. You also make sure that internal controls are timely and correctly performed and documented.
To be successful, you will need knowledge of practical application of IFRS and accounting. We are keen to hear your view on this!
