Working on real impact: clean administration is what frees up space for our sustainability mission
Ecochain is a fast-growing, purpose-driven B2B SaaS scale-up with a mission: to make sustainability data accessible for 100 million products by 2035. We build LCA automation platforms (Mobius and Helix) that allow industrial manufacturers to measure, share, and reduce their environmental impact.

Check P&L for correct period allocation
Continuously keep the administration audit-ready and support the Financial Controller with ad-hoc projects
As a Senior Financial Operations Specialist, you are the owner of our financial operations: accounts receivable, the accounts payable pipeline, and a clean, timely month-end close. You report directly to our Financial Controller; you assist no one, you own your own domain.
This is a role of 24 hours per week. Not a full-time job, but a permanent, well-organized position for someone who wants to do one thing excellently.
Hours: 24 per week - three full days, or spread over four or five. You choose.
Please include a CV and a short cover letter with your application. We read the cover letter first; in it, please answer these three questions:
The full cycle you have managed: describe the journey from a customer signing to the accountant closing. Be specific about where your responsibility began and ended.
A balance you collected: tell us about an overdue amount you collected from an unhappy customer. What did you say, and how was the relationship afterwards?
Working in 24 hours: how do you organize your work so that recurring deadlines (such as the month-end close) run smoothly, even on days when you are not here?
Three short paragraphs are enough. Concrete beats polished.
Screening with the Financial Controller (30 min): culture fit, experience, and motivation
Working interview with the Financial Controller (90 min): live case based on anonymized material + a paid take-home assignment (max. 3 hours)
Final interview with HR and the CEO (30 min): vision and long-term commitment
Our team of 50+ professionals works from Amsterdam and serves customers in the construction and manufacturing industries across the Benelux, DACH, and beyond. We are a certified B-Corp and we measure ourselves on impact, not just on margin.
