Finance Business Partner Benelux

As part of Air Liquide's Healthcare activities, VitalAire delivers life-enhancing medical technologies and therapies directly to patients living with chronic conditions.

Every accurate balance sheet, timely reimbursement, and smooth financial flow ensures our care reaches patients without delay. As our Finance Business Partner Benelux, you bridge local operational reality with strategic financial steering, safeguarding compliance and enabling sustainable home healthcare across Belgium and the Netherlands.

Supporting the Benelux Head of Finance (CFO), you will serve as the strategic financial cornerstone for our local entities, bridging the gap between local Benelux operations and our Shared Service Centre (SSC) in Lisbon.

• SSC & Operations Bridge: Act as the main country interface for Lisbon's SSC-managing escalations, clarifying daily instructions, and troubleshooting operational accounting issues. You will conduct periodic review of the balance sheets items to ensure accuracy and support on resolution of discrepancies.
• Local Compliance & Accounting Ownership: Safeguard local regulations, tax compliance, and Group IFRS. You own local accounting activities (such as balance sheet reviews, bank relations, and physical inventory checks) and serve as the key contact for Auditors and Tax Authorities.
• Approvals & Governance: Hold country sign-off authority for critical financial flows (including VAT, payments, and reimbursement claims) while upholding internal control frameworks.
• Reporting & Group Consolidation: Ensure timely, accurate group consolidation reporting packages that reconcile seamlessly with local statutory accounts.
• Continuous Improvement: Partner with local teams, the SSC, and IT to optimize ERP workflows, banking interfaces, and day-to-day finance systems.

• Mobility: Willingness to travel within the Benelux region (~2-3 days per month between Zemst and Lelystad).
• Mindset: An analytical, proactive communicator who enjoys solving operational bottlenecks and driving accuracy.

At Air Liquide, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace that embraces the diversity of our employees, our customers, patients, community stakeholders, and cultures throughout the world.

We welcome and consider applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of their background. We are convinced that a diverse organization offers people the opportunity to express their talent, both individually and collectively, and that it fosters our ability to innovate by living our principles, acting for our success, and creating an engaging environment in a changing world.
