NL-Business Controller - Performance & Execution

• On-site
• • Amsterdam , Noord-Holland , Netherlands

Job description

As Business Controller - Performance & Execution , you will play a key role in shaping data-driven decision-making, profitability, and growth within a fast-growing, international organization. You will work closely with senior leadership and have a direct impact on strategic and operational decisions across the business.

Because the company is growing rapidly and is still relatively young, many processes exist "because that's how they've always been done." This role offers a unique opportunity to bring structure, build scalable processes, and turn analysis into concrete actions and measurable results .

You report directly to the CFO and work closely with the CEO and Commercial Manager. Although positioned within finance, you operate as a business partner with a clear mandate from the CEO and CFO to drive changes across departments. Your scope spans the entire organization, across all departments and geographies.

Key Responsibilities & Impact

Improve profitability and margins

• Perform detailed margin and profitability analyses and own the implementation of resulting decisions across the organization .

• Take ownership of initiatives such as capacity planning and utilization models, working closely with operations and commercial teams.

• Improve forecasting accuracy, long-term planning, and visibility, and ensure improvements are embedded in day-to-day processes.

Drive revenue growth

• Analyze and optimize the training offering, schedules, and pricing, and ensure decisions are translated into operational reality.

• Support decisions on adding new trainings and monitor post-implementation performance.

• Analyze and support expansion into new geographies, including business cases and performance tracking.

Data, insights & tooling

• Design, build, and continuously improve dashboards, models, and analytical tools to structurally improve decision-making.

• Translate data from booking platforms, financial systems, and operational tools into actionable insights.

• Actively challenge existing data structures and processes and propose innovative ways of working, with support to implement better tools and approaches.

Accountability

You are accountable for visibly and measurably increasing margins, utilization, and planning quality .

While analysis is an important foundation, your success is defined by execution: implementing decisions, driving adoption across teams, tracking outcomes, and adjusting when results do not materialize.

Organization & Reporting

You will sit within a small, dynamic finance team (5 FTE), supported by additional finance teams in the US and Saudi Arabia. However, the role is business-facing and cross-functional, with a clear mandate to drive performance improvements across the organization. You report directly to the CFO.

The position is full-time, based in Amsterdam.

Why This Role?

• High-impact role with direct visibility at CEO and CFO level.

• Clear mandate and ownership to drive performance and execution.

• Significant opportunity for value creation in a rapidly scaling organization.

• High degree of autonomy to build, improve, and implement processes and tools.

• Exposure to international growth, expansion, and private equity dynamics.
