Finance Manager

Help shape the financial future of Demaco

Are you an experienced Finance Manager who looks beyond the numbers? A strong sparring partner for the board and management, combining strategic insight with a hands-on mindset? And do you have the ambition to grow towards a CFO position in the long term?

Demaco is a fast-growing organisation with approximately 100 employees and ambitious growth plans. This makes it a particularly interesting moment to join and make an important contribution to the financial future of our company.

As Finance Manager, you will have the opportunity to truly make an impact. You are responsible for the financial management and further professionalisation of our organisation in Noord-Scharwoude. You lead a compact team of four employees and remain closely involved in the financial operations yourself.

You are a working leader who easily switches between strategic issues and day-to-day practice. You know when to delegate tasks, but find it just as natural to dive into the numbers yourself, perform analyses and solve financial problems.

You work closely with the local management and the management team and report to the Finance Director in the United States. In doing so, you combine the short lines of a Dutch technical organisation with the international dynamics of OPW Clean Energy Solutions and parent company Dover Corporation.

What will you do?

As Finance Manager, you ensure a reliable financial organisation and sound financial management. You look ahead, identify opportunities and risks, and help management make well-founded decisions.

Your main responsibilities:

• Financial management and advice: You are the financial sparring partner of the board and the management team. You advise on business results, investments, cost control and strategic developments.

• Planning, analysis and reporting: You are responsible for budgets, forecasts, financial analyses and timely monthly, quarterly and annual closings. You prepare the financial reports for OPW and Dover Corporation.

• Financial control and execution: You safeguard the quality of the financial administration, internal controls and financial reporting, including US GAAP. You remain substantively involved and, where necessary, work on analyses, controls and complex financial issues yourself.

• Process improvement: You optimise financial processes, ERP systems and management information and contribute to an efficient, future-proof financial organisation.

• Working leadership: You manage a team of four employees, consisting of two Financial Controllers, a financial administrative employee and a receptionist/telephonist. You coach your colleagues, ensure a clear division of tasks and stimulate ownership and collaboration.

• Business partnering: You work closely with departments such as Operations, Sales, Engineering and Supply Chain and translate financial and operational performance into concrete improvement initiatives.

You are at the heart of the organisation, understand the dynamics of a technical production environment and know how to make financial insights understandable for colleagues at various levels.

What do you bring?

We are looking for a financially strong and entrepreneurial professional who can think strategically and is happy to roll up their sleeves. You are a natural leader who does not steer from the sidelines, but achieves results together with the team.

In addition, you have:

• A completed higher vocational or university degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Economics or a comparable field.

• At least seven years of relevant financial experience, preferably within a manufacturing or industrial organisation, of which at least three years in a leadership or coordinating role.

• Extensive experience with financial control, budgeting, forecasting, management reporting and financial analyses.

• Experience as a financial business partner and sparring partner for the board and management.

• Knowledge of financial reporting, internal control and compliance. Experience with US GAAP is a plus.

• Experience with ERP systems, process optimisation and managing or developing employees.

• Excellent communication skills and a good command of Dutch and English.

Experience within an international organisation or with an American parent company is an advantage. An additional financial qualification, such as RA, RC or CMA, is a plus.

You are analytically strong, proactive and results-oriented. You dare to be critical, take responsibility and know how to bring others along positively through change.

What do we offer?

A challenging management position in which you have the space to further professionalise Demaco's financial organisation and actually influence the direction and results of the company.

What you can also expect:

• A full-time position with the option to work partly from home.

• A gross monthly salary between € 7,000 and € 9,000, depending on your knowledge and experience, excluding 8% holiday allowance.

• 27 holiday days and 13 ADV days on a full-time basis.

• A very good pension scheme, administered by PME Pensioenfonds.

• A one-year contract with the intention of converting it into a permanent employment contract.

• A company laptop and phone.

• A key position within the management team, with international collaboration and a direct reporting line to the Finance Director in the United States.

• Room for personal and professional development, with growth prospects towards a CFO position in the long term.
