As a Controller at Vitales, a growing group of occupational health and safety services and reintegration / 2nd track and career coaching companies, you are the CEO’s right hand. From a finance point of view, you are one of the most important sparring partners for the various directors of the labels under Vitales. Vitales is a company that is constantly evolving, which ensures that you are part of new projects, so no day is the same. To help the organization grow further, both organically and through new acquisitions, Vitales is looking for an initiative-rich and connecting Controller who can think in a solution-oriented manner on strategic issues and knows how to properly set up a Finance department. A lot is currently outsourced to external parties, the goal for 2024 is to bring a lot of work in-house, and you can play a pioneering role in this!

As a Controller you work alternately at home and at the various offices of the labels. The dynamic cultures of the various labels are spread across Amsterdam, Deventer and Apeldoorn. Because all labels are in different locations but have a similar culture, an informal but professional working atmosphere is created. With two administrative employees who are committed to the labels, you form a team and together you are responsible for setting up a group-wide Finance department. In addition, as a Controller you contact the Private Equity company above Vitales to report and discuss the results of the organization.

In addition to setting up the overarching Finance department, this role offers the opportunity to think about process improvements. At Vitales you will be an important link between the strategy and the organization, so you will act as a point of contact for the directors of the labels, your financial colleagues and external parties. By being in direct contact with the various stakeholders, you will be able to actively think about process improvement, aiming for continuous professionalization and optimization. If you are assertive, enthusiastic and have strong communication skills, you can add enormous value as the new Controller of Vitalis and continue to challenge yourself.
