Finance Operations Manager
Meetingselect B.V.
Full-time
Fixed-term
Who are we?
We want to meet you!
Meetingselect is entering an exciting new phase of growth, and Finance Operations plays a key role in supporting that journey.
The booking of meeting and event venues involves a level of financial complexity that most platforms never encounter, including invoicing multiple parties, managing supplier reconciliations, and processing high transaction volumes across Europe. Over the past few years, we have invested significantly in building a robust ERP foundation, and the results are paying off.
We are now entering the next chapter. AI-driven innovation is becoming an increasingly important part of our finance transformation strategy, helping us improve efficiency, quality, and scalability across our finance processes. Technology enables speed and productivity, allowing finance professionals to focus on the cases that truly require expertise and judgment. This transformation is critical to Meetingselect's future, and you will play a leading role in it.
As Finance Operations Manager, you will report directly to the Finance Director and lead a team of four Finance Operations professionals, with team members based in both Amsterdam and India. You will work alongside project managers responsible for AI initiatives and collaborate closely with colleagues in Controlling and Cash Control within the broader Finance department.
Daily, you will serve as the key connection between Finance, Meeting & Events Operations, Sales, Business Operations, and IT.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You will remain actively involved in the day-to-day operation, support your team with complex cases and escalations, and continuously look for ways to improve processes and performance. An affinity for AI and innovation is highly valued; we are looking for someone who sees technology as an opportunity rather than a threat.
