• Strong analytical skills and the ability to work accurately with financial data.
• Experience with SAP and an interest in AI are considered an advantage.
• A proactive mindset, with the ability to contribute to innovation and automation while inspiring others to embrace new ways of working.
• A collaborative, service-oriented attitude and the flexibility to rotate tasks within the team. You are reliable, accurate, act with integrity, and are well organised.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in both Dutch and English.

You'll join a friendly, informal team based in the heart of The Hague, just a short walk from Central Station.
