Job description

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a QuickBooks Financial Controller based in Netherlands.

This is a fully remote, full-time opportunity for an experienced accounting professional ready to take ownership of a company's financial operations.
You will report directly to the CFO and play a central role in strengthening and professionalizing the finance function.
The position offers significant responsibility across the General Ledger, month-end close, reconciliations, reporting, cash management, and accounting controls.
A key part of the role will be helping transition accounting activities from an external provider to a fully in-house operation.
You will also become the internal QuickBooks expert, configuring and optimizing the platform to support business and reporting needs.
The role combines hands-on accounting with team oversight, operational support, and collaboration with U.S.-based colleagues and clients.
It is an ideal opportunity for an independent, highly detail-oriented professional who thrives in a fast-paced, remote environment and values meaningful ownership.

Accountabilities
  • Take full ownership of the General Ledger, ensuring financial records are accurate, complete, and consistently maintained.
  • Configure, optimize, and manage QuickBooks to support accounting structures, reporting requirements, and business processes.
  • Lead or support QuickBooks configuration and implementation initiatives.
  • Drive the transition of accounting and General Ledger activities from an external accounting provider to an in-house function.
  • Manage monthly close activities, including reconciliations, account reviews, and timely closing of the books.
  • Establish and maintain an appropriate Chart of Accounts and consistent accounting classification standards.
  • Prepare and review financial statements and P&L reports across business divisions.
  • Oversee bank reconciliations and monitor cash position and related financial information.
  • Provide accurate and timely financial information to support CFO review and decision-making.
  • Supervise Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable specialists and ensure their work meets established standards.
  • Review and approve invoices, time reports, client statements, payroll, vendor payments, and expense submissions.
  • Coordinate payroll tax, sales tax, and 1099-related accounting matters.
  • Apply accounting policies and procedures established by the CFO accurately and consistently.
  • Maintain strong financial controls and a consistently high level of accuracy.
  • Support accounting-related client requests and assist with operational matters when required in a small-team environment.
Requirements:
  • Proven experience as a Financial Controller, Senior Accountant, or comparable senior accounting professional with full General Ledger ownership.
  • Advanced, hands-on professional experience with QuickBooks is essential; basic familiarity or occasional use is not sufficient.
  • Strong experience with QuickBooks Online and/or QuickBooks Desktop.
  • Demonstrated experience configuring QuickBooks and/or leading or supporting a QuickBooks implementation.
  • Solid knowledge of General Ledger management, reconciliations, and month-end close processes.
  • Experience preparing financial statements, P&L reports, and other management-level financial information.
  • Strong understanding of Chart of Accounts structures, accounting classifications, and financial controls.
  • Experience overseeing or working closely with Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable functions.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and a strong track record of maintaining low error rates.
  • Ability to work independently, prioritize effectively, and operate with minimal supervision.
  • Strong ability to execute accounting policies and procedures with precision and consistency.
  • Comfortable taking on operational responsibilities beyond traditional accounting when business needs require it.
  • C1/C2-level English proficiency, both written and spoken, with confidence communicating with U.S.-based colleagues and clients.
  • Availability to work with the required overlap during U.S. business hours.
  • Experience transitioning an accounting function from an external provider to an in-house team is highly valued.
  • Experience with BigTime or similar project accounting software is a plus.
  • Background in professional services, interior design, architecture, construction, or other project-based environments is advantageous.
  • Previous experience supervising accounting or bookkeeping professionals is preferred.
  • As part of the application, candidates should be prepared to submit a short video in English introducing themselves and summarizing their accounting background, followed by a 30-second to 1-minute overview of their professional QuickBooks experience, including versions used, responsibilities, and any configuration or implementation experience.
Benefits:
  • $2,000-$4,000 USD per month, depending on experience and location.
  • Fully remote work arrangement.
  • Full-time contractor opportunity with long-term potential.
  • Direct exposure to the CFO and senior leadership.
  • Significant ownership and autonomy over the accounting function.
  • Opportunity to lead an important transition from outsourced to in-house accounting operations.
  • Opportunity to become the organization's internal QuickBooks expert.
  • A high-impact role combining accounting leadership, process improvement, and operational responsibility.
  • Flexible remote environment with required overlap during U.S. business hours.
  • Short initial trial period designed to ensure a strong mutual fit.
