A dynamic team of IoT enthusiasts at work
IoT is the heart of our business, we have decades of in-house expertise. Both during and outside office hours, our team proves every single day that mountains can be moved, even by few. This is only possible with the necessary involvement, commitment and mutual trust.
Everyone has a unique talent to add to the team and is respected for this. In our fast-changing work environment, flexibility is both a must and a perk.
Sensolus is growing fast and our finance team needs to keep pace! We're looking for a Financial Controller who's ready to own the numbers, sharpen our reporting, and help build the financial backbone of a scaling tech company. 🚀
This isn't a tick-the-box finance job: no routines, no managing teams, no bumping into rigid structures but rather exploring different domains, taking ownership over improvements and working as a strong, complementary unit!
Who we are
Sensolus is a Belgian IoT scale-up, building asset tracking solutions for logistics and industrial companies (think Airbus, ABInBev, DHL). Today we are a team of around 60 people, operating internationally with customers all over the world. 🌍
Our finance team is deliberately lean, hands-on and ambitious. You'll work closely with our CFO and Finance Accountant and combine deep technical accounting with hands-on operational finance and genuinely make an impact from day one. 🎯
What you'll do
In this role you will combine technical accounting ownership, financial reporting, and operational finance responsibilities in a small but ambitious finance team.
We're a lean team, which means you'll get hands-on with a broad range of topics:
🧮 Accounting & Closing
Drive the monthly closing process together with our Financial Accountant
Own BEGAAP accounting from A to Z (you're the expert in the room!)
Review VAT returns and keep us on the right side of Belgian tax obligations
Support preparation of annual accounts and corporate tax filings
Lead audit preparation and make sure we're always ready
🗽International Finance
Be the finance point of contact for our US subsidiary, Sensolus Inc.
Coordinate with external accountants in the United States
Support group consolidation between Belgium and the US entity
Ensure intercompany accounting is clean and well-documented
📊Financial Reporting
Support the CFO with monthly management reporting that actually tells a story
Make sure our financial data ties seamlessly to key SaaS metrics (ARR, margins, and more)
⚙️Operational Finance
Insurance administration together with our broker
Subsidy administration and reporting
Fleet administration in collaboration with HR
Financial aspects of HR processes (payroll review, warrant schemes, etc.)
🤝External Stakeholders
Build and maintain strong relationships with auditors, tax advisors, banks, and subsidy agencies
Keep our external compliance processes running smoothly
💯Process Improvement
Spot inefficiencies and take ownership in fixing them (#worksmarternotharder)
Help automate KPI reporting and accounting workflows as we scale
Who you are
You have a solid accounting foundation, a pragmatic mindset, and you thrive when you're given real ownership. You don't wait to be told what needs fixing because you see it and you act. You probably:
Have 4–8 years of experience in an in-house finance role, or came up through audit and made the move to industry
Know BEGAAP accounting inside out
Are comfortable with VAT, annual accounts, and Belgian tax compliance
Have some exposure to international accounting environments
Have a basic handle on consolidation and intercompany accounting
Love working in a hands-on environment where no two days look exactly the same
Are structured, reliable, and detail-oriented (without being rigid)
Communicate fluently in Dutch and English
Have experience with Exact Online, Teamleader, or similar tools
What we offer
💰 Competitive salary package aligned with experience
🍝 Meal vouchers, health insurance and a flexible cafeteria plan
🏝️ Up to 32 days of annual leave
🏰 Hybrid work with 2 days remote (and a really great office in Ghent)
🚀 Real ownership in a growing international tech company
🤝 A small collaborative team where your work has visible impact
If you enjoy combining strong accounting fundamentals, international exposure and real ownership in a growing SaaS company, we would love to meet you.
