• Fluent Dutch (C1 level or native) is required.

• Experience collaborating cross-functionally with People & Culture on payroll, contracts, and compliance.
• Hands-on familiarity with accounting and reporting platforms, multi-entity / multi-currency setups, and SaaS-specific tooling.
• Available 4–5 days per week for an estimated 6-9-month period (flexible to extend depending on assignment progression and completion).

Who You Are

• A finance leader equally comfortable running the day-to-day and reshaping how a function works.
• Entrepreneurial and pragmatic,you bring structure without over-engineering it.
• Energized by modernizing how a finance function operates, not just maintaining it.

• Motivated by clear scope, ownership, and a defined endpoint rather than a permanent seat.

What Success Looks Like

• Business-as-usual finance operations and reporting run without disruption for duration of project.
• A defined set of finance processes are automated and documented.
• Firely's finance function has a clear, modern operating model in place by the end of the assignment.
