Your job

As an Accounting Professional you have a good basic (theoretical) knowledge of accounting principles and processes. Your day-to-day work will mostly consist of (financial) accounting, reconciliations and related analysis. Furthermore you are involved in the period closings to set up and explain the balance and P&L changes to ABF's stakeholders and ABN AMRO Bank. Finally you are also involved in the IFRS monthly and quarterly reports to the Bank and ensure that these reports are provided efficiently and in accordance with IFRS and ABN AMRO standards.


In your role you will work closely with other departments with the aim of improving the processes and the period closings. Furthermore you will steer on timely and accurate delivery of information by internal and external parties. Every year, several audits are carried out by the internal and external accountant, in which you play a pivotal role in providing requested information for these audits.


You have an active role in maintaining the internal control environment. ABN AMRO uses an internal control environment in which it is important that the key controls are maintained. It is also important that the associated work instructions (SOPs) are up to date and that the End User Designed Applications (EUDAs) are used in a controlled manner.


Within ABF Accounting we are always looking for improvement and continuously learn from our experiences. Various (change) projects are being carried out within the Finance department. You will be involved in the evolution of processes, both by implementing small improvements and finishing bigger projects and aligning with processes of ABN AMRO bank.

ABN AMRO Asset Based Finance (ABF) is a subsidiary of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and is active in business finance, asset leasing, accounts receivable financing, stock financing and credit management. ABF is a result of a legal merger between ABN AMRO Lease and ABN AMRO Commercial Finance. The Accounting department for ABF is part of the ABN AMRO Accounting and Reporting structure since September 2025.


You will be part of the Accounting team which is an English speaking team of approximately 13 colleagues. The team successfully integrated the two Finance departments after the merger, and centralized into one Accounting department in the Netherlands. Some of the keywords that apply to the team are teamwork, challenge, self-development, and self-direction. As a team we are working hard to become a future-proof Finance department. The aim is to get one step better every day
