Interim Financial Controller

As Virtuagym keeps on growing, we’re looking for an experienced Interim Financial Controller to join our finance team for 3-6 months. You’ll be someone who can hit the ground running: strengthening our controls, keeping our close and compliance on track, and leaving our processes in better shape than you found them. Will you help us in our quest to create a healthier and happier world?

Join a high performing team and make an impact!

We're a passionate, driven team with a strong focus on growth and delivering outstanding results. At Virtuagym, we cultivate a high-performance culture built on dedication, ownership and driving excellence. If you're a self-starter who embraces challenges, thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and keeps going where others might stop, this could be the perfect role for you! In return, you’ll join a team where you can grow, develop, and truly unlock your full potential.

We have a beautiful office in the center of Amsterdam and while we foster getting together to exchange ideas and energy, we are a remote-friendly company. This means that you have the freedom to work from home whenever you want, provided you keep delivering great results!
At the same time we love bringing our teams together by organizing team events and company parties to brainstorm about the future of our industry and build friendships, while having fun along the way.

What this role looks like

As Financial Controller, you will join an enthusiastic and ambitious finance team. You will work closely with our CFO, Finance Management and the wider Finance team, supporting our control, compliance and reporting agenda across the group. The role is broad by design: depending on your strengths and interests, you can grow your scope across compliance and revenue control over time.

We are looking for an analytic, curious and entrepreneurial mind with a go-getter mentality, who can thrive in a dynamic scale-up environment. This role offers a real seat at the table, plenty of room to take ownership, and ample opportunity to grow.


What this assignment looks like

As Interim Financial Controller, you’ll work closely with our CFO, Finance Management and the wider Finance team on our control, compliance and reporting agenda. This is a hands-on role with clear priorities. We need someone who can quickly understand our setup, take ownership and deliver within a defined timeframe.

What you will own

• Strengthen and improve internal controls so our financial data is accurate, reliable and auditable

• Support tax compliance (VAT, ICP, CIT) and statutory filings together with our advisors

• Own AR and revenue control, including reconciliations, revenue recognition and billing accuracy

• Run and tighten key reconciliations (AR, intercompany, bank) and balance sheet substantiation

• Contribute to monthly close and audit preparation (journal entries, PBC, schedules, walkthroughs)

• Spot gaps quickly, streamline processes and drive automation across NetSuite, Salesforce and Stripe

• Document processes and hand over cleanly, so improvements last beyond your assignment

What you will bring

• 5+ years of experience in financial control, accounting or audit (Big 4 and/or industry)

• Previous interim or freelance experience, with a track record of adding value fast

• A degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field

• Strong knowledge of accounting principles (Dutch GAAP and/or IFRS)

• Hands-on experience with tax (VAT/ICP, CIT) and revenue/AR processes

• Proven ability to improve controls, processes or reporting (e.g. automations, reconciliations, system improvements)

• Fluency in Dutch (native level) and English. This is a hard requirement.

• Availability on short notice, for 3–6 months

• Experience with ERP systems; NetSuite, Salesforce or Stripe is a strong advantage

• You take ownership, communicate clearly with stakeholders, and don’t need much ramp-up time to be effective
