Opportunity

How Do You Build the Financial Foundation Behind Mission Readiness?

Every mission depends on reliable information.

So does every growing organisation.

As ILIAS Solutions continues to evolve, finance evolves with it.

More legal entities.

More international collaboration.

More projects.

More complexity.

Growth creates financial questions that go beyond accurate accounting.

Reliable financial reporting remains the foundation. Increasingly, finance also helps colleagues understand performance, improve processes, and support better business decisions.

That's where you come in.

As a Senior General Ledger Accountant, you'll help build the finance capability that supports the next stage of ILIAS' development. Working across six legal entities, you'll combine strong General Ledger accounting with analytical thinking, collaboration, and continuous improvement to support the next stage of ILIAS' development.



Meaningful Work in a Mission Driven Environment

Finance doesn't operate in isolation.

Behind every journal entry, reconciliation, and financial report are projects, investments, operational activities, and strategic decisions.

Your role is to connect those activities with reliable financial information.

Working closely with colleagues across the business, you'll help explain financial developments, validate information, and provide the context that enables better decisions.

Your work helps colleagues understand today's performance while supporting the decisions that shape tomorrow.



More Than the Monthly Close

No two periods are exactly the same.

One month you'll investigate a reporting difference.

The next, you'll support an audit, contribute to a finance project, assist with financial analyses, or help improve the way finance works.

Alongside your General Ledger responsibilities, you'll contribute to HFM reporting, IFRS activities, NetSuite developments, and initiatives that continue to strengthen the finance organisation.

As the finance function grows, you'll grow with it.

Your Mission

How You Create Value


Together with Gregory Blondeel's finance team, you'll help ensure that financial reporting remains accurate, reliable, and available when the organisation needs it most.

You'll contribute by:

  • Managing General Ledger accounting and month end closings across six legal entities.
  • Reconciling balance sheet accounts and resolving financial differences.
  • Processing and reporting revenue, operational costs, accruals, and other financial transactions.
  • Improving reporting quality, tax reporting, audits, and compliance activities.
  • Contributing to HFM and IFRS reporting.
  • Supporting finance projects and ad hoc financial analyses.
  • Improving reporting quality, finance processes, and ERP solutions, including NetSuite.
  • Working with colleagues to explain financial results and contribute to continuous improvements across the finance function.




Your Capabilities


What You Bring

This role will probably suit you if you enjoy combining accurate accounting with analytical thinking and like understanding the business behind the numbers.

You'll also bring:

  • A Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • Around three years or more of experience in General Ledger accounting or finance.
  • Experience with month end closings, financial reporting, and balance sheet reconciliations.
  • Knowledge of Belgian GAAP. Experience with IFRS is an advantage.
  • Experience working with ERP systems such as NetSuite or similar platforms.
  • Strong Excel skills.
  • Fluency in Dutch and English.
  • A structured approach, curiosity, and the motivation to continue learning and improving.

Build Your Future with ILIAS

General Ledger accounting is the foundation of this role.

It's where your contribution begins.

As ILIAS continues to evolve, finance continues to broaden its role within the organisation. Over time, you'll become involved in wider reporting activities, ERP developments, finance projects, process improvements, and financial analyses that support the continued development of the business.

Working in a compact team of experienced finance professionals, you'll have the opportunity to learn, contribute your own ideas, and grow alongside a finance function that is developing together with the organisation.

A role with this level of responsibility deserves a package that reflects its impact. You'll receive a salary aligned with the scope of the role, complemented by an annual bonus, a company car where applicable, and the standard Belgian fringe benefits.

Perhaps the real question isn't how many audits you've completed.

It's whether you're motivated by helping colleagues make better decisions through reliable financial information..
