About the job

Numbers under control. Processes in view. Moving things forward together. 🚀

You feel at home in the world of numbers, enjoy working independently and want to do more than just classic accounting? Then you are exactly right at Yousty.

As a Finance & Business Support Officer, you take on a versatile role at the interface between finance, administration and operational business. You ensure that our financial processes run smoothly, numbers are correct and our team is optimally supported in day-to-day business.

We are not looking for someone who just works by checklist. We are looking for a thoughtful, reliable and solution-oriented personality who takes responsibility, likes to tackle things independently and also looks beyond their own area of responsibility.

• You take care of dunning and debt collection and ensure a professional approach to outstanding claims.

• You maintain our master data and ensure that relevant information is correct and up to date.
• You support the team in completing operational tasks in finance.

Personal

• Numbers suit you: you like to work precisely and recognise connections.

• You enjoy working in a young, dynamic team and tackling different topics.
• You communicate openly, straightforwardly and solution-oriented.
• You are curious and willing to quickly learn missing skills and new tools.
• You don’t think in terms of "That’s not my task" but in "How can we solve this together?".
