Location: Amsterdam / Remote
Role Overview
Tradesyncer is looking for a part-time Financial Controller to take ownership of our financial operations as we scale our SaaS and fintech ecosystem.
You’ll cover reporting, budgeting, forecasting, tax compliance, Stripe revenue reconciliation, and all accounting processes — ensuring financial clarity across the company.
