Basic-Fit is growing at a fast pace, and our finance operations have to scale with it without growing at the same rate. We are looking for a Head of Finance Operations who leads the teams that run Invoice-to-Cash, Purchase-to-Pay, Payroll and Accounting, and makes them faster, more accurate and increasingly automated. In this role, you lead your teams to getting the numbers right at the source, so we don’t need to spend time downstream to fix them. That is how Finance helps deliver our high-value, low-cost promise to our members.
Do you want to help make fitness accessible to all by building finance operations that scale? Are you analytical, do you act fast, and do you enjoy working in a growing company? Then please keep reading!
This is what your assignment looks like:
As our Head of Finance Operations, you lead four teams of about 50 colleagues in total, most of them centralised in Hoofddorp, with a second hub in Madrid and a handful of colleagues in other European countries. You report to the CFO and are accountable for keeping day-to-day operations reliable while you steadily make them faster, simpler and more automated.
Invoice-to-Cash: For B2C you lead the collection of monthly payments from our 5.0M+ members, including follow-up when they don’t pay, while keeping a positive relationship with them. For B2B you oversee billing and collections of our franchise, personal trainers and advertisement partners.
Purchase-to-Pay: Manage the processing and payment of the 20,000+ invoices we receive every month accurately, on time and with as little manual handling as possible. You lead our in-house P2P team, which works from two hubs Hoofddorp and Madrid.
Payroll: Oversee payroll for our 10,000+ employees, so they are paid correctly and on time every month, in line with the laws and regulations of each country. Our payroll team works mainly from Hoofddorp, Madrid and Lille, with a few colleagues in Belgium and Germany. Together they cover all our operating countries.
Accounting: Lead the recording of every transaction for our 2,000+ clubs in the general ledger in a correct, complete and timely way, and close the books quickly each month.
You are the link between finance operations and the rest of the organisation. You work with the business, FP&A, Corporate Control, IT and our external partners to find where processes create friction, agree what needs to change, and make it happen.
You are based at our headquarters in Hoofddorp, the Netherlands, and travel occasionally to your teams in Madrid and our other operating countries.
