Do you like Accounting, self-direction, challenges and are you a team player? Then you can help us in building the future-proof Accounting department. Do you want to contribute to the further growth of Asset Based Finance (ABF) and be part of building a leading North-West European Factoring & Leasing Company? Join our team!

We are looking for an enthusiastic Accounting Professional who enjoys working in a diverse team that is always looking for ways to improve processes and accelerate execution. You will be involved in the further harmonization of the Finance department, looking for the best practices/solutions for all challenges that we encounter.

Your job

  • As an Accounting Professional you have a good basic (theoretical) knowledge of accounting principles and processes. Your day-to-day work will mostly consist of (financial) accounting, reconciliations and related analysis. Furthermore you are involved in the period closings to set up and explain the balance and P&L changes to ABF's management. Finally you are also involved in the IFRS monthly and quarterly reports to the Bank and ensure that these reports are provided efficiently and in accordance with IFRS and ABN AMRO standards.
  • In your role you will work closely with other departments with the aim of improving the processes and the period closings. Furthermore you will steer on timely and accurate delivery of information by internal and external parties. Every year, several audits are carried out by the internal and external accountant, in which you play a pivotal role in providing requested information for these audits.
  • You have an active role in maintaining the internal control environment. ABN AMRO uses an internal control environment in which it is important that the key controls are maintained. It is also important that the associated work instructions (SOPs) are up to date and that the End User Designed Applications (EUDAs) are used in a controlled manner.
  • Within ABF we are always looking for improvement and continuously learn from our experiences. Various (change) projects are being carried out within the Finance department. You will be involved in the evolution of processes, both by implementing small improvements and finishing bigger projects.

Working environment

ABN AMRO Asset Based Finance (ABF) is a subsidiary of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and is active in business finance, asset leasing, accounts receivable financing, stock financing and credit management.

You will be part of the Accounting team which is an English speaking team of approximately 15 colleagues. The team successfully integrated the two Finance departments after the merger, and centralized into one Accounting department in the Netherlands. Some of the keywords that apply to the team are teamwork, challenge, self-development, and self-direction. As a team we are working hard to become a future-proof Finance department. The aim is to get one step better every day.
