Job description

Who you’ll be working for

A globally operating agribusiness group, active across the full chain from cultivation to end product, has a European trading office in the Randstad. The business deals in a broad range of agricultural commodities and treats sustainability as a strategic priority rather than a side topic. The office is international, informal and growing quickly, and the group offers plenty of room for development, both locally and abroad.

What the job is about

This is not a pure accounting role. You sit at the intersection of reporting, control and the commercial business. You close the books, but you also help traders and logistics colleagues understand their numbers, keep an eye on working capital and credit risk, and contribute to how the business manages commodity and currency exposure.

What you’ll do

• Own key parts of the monthly close and reporting to the group’s corporate finance team
• Keep the balance sheet clean: reconciliations, accruals, provisions and cost allocations
• Explain performance by translating budget-versus-actual differences into clear insights and concrete actions
• Act as a sparring partner for commercial and logistics teams on margins and cost efficiency
• Work closely with accounts payable and receivable to strengthen cash flow and working capital
• Support trade control on commodity and FX risk, and help embed group policies and compliance
• Be the go-to person for auditors and other internal and external stakeholders with financial questions
• Take part in projects that improve reporting, performance analysis and risk management, and pick up ad-hoc analyses where needed

What you bring

You hold a bachelor’s degree in finance, economics or a similar field and have at least three years of experience in finance or business control. Experience in commodity trading gives you a clear head start. You are very strong in Excel, and working knowledge of SAP and Power BI is a plus. You communicate fluently in English; Dutch is welcome but not required.

What you get

• A competitive salary with a good pension scheme, flexible hours and a solid training and development offering, both locally and internationally
• a contribution to your health insurance, a sustainable and well-connected office, daily healthy snacks, and a team that regularly gets together for outings, dinners and well-being activities
