-Audit & Internal Control:
Serve as the primary liaison for internal and external auditors, managing the execution of audit plans and ensuring the timely delivery of high-quality documentation and quarterly control checks.
-Tax & Payroll Oversight:
Ensure full Dutch tax compliance (including BUA and WKR) and collaborate closely with the payroll department to validate monthly outcomes and specialized accounting treatments.
-Stakeholder Collaboration:
Act as a central point of contact for Business Control, IT, HR, and Operations, while bridging coordination between the Dutch and Spanish GL teams to ensure regional alignment.
-Continuous Improvement:
Proactively identify reporting gaps and lead cross-departmental projects aimed at harmonizing financial systems, standardizing procedures, and driving efficiency across the EMEA region.
