We are looking for a driven Group Accountant for our Group Reporting team. The team is part of the VTTI Finance team and based at our headquarters in Rotterdam. It is responsible for the support of the Finance teams around the world, using Oracle Fusion Financials and other financial applications. An excellent opportunity to pursue a career after a few years working as a financial auditor with a Big 4 firm or comparable.
Interested? Contact Jouke Brouwer, oub@vtti.com.
The Group Accountant will be part of the Group Reporting team who is responsible for preparing (monthly) consolidated reporting under IFRS (including ESG) to management, the shareholders and other stakeholders. The Group Accountant will be working closely together with the local finance teams in the operating companies (terminals) to ensure the financial accounting and reporting processes are running smoothly and deliver a high quality of financial and non-financial information which is standardized and comparable across the group.
The team consists of 3 people, reporting to the Head of Reporting which means the team members will have a lot of opportunity to get involved in a wide range of projects and topics including automation, process optimization, internal control, technical accounting and managing the annual external audit process. Given that the local finance teams are generally quite small (2-3 people on average), the group accountant will also have an advisory role to those teams ensuring transfer of knowledge that is built across the operating companies and facilitating the sharing of best practices between teams.
Part of the reporting team’s current ambition is to streamline the ESG data collection and reporting process across the group in accordance with CSRD as a new requirement for large companies as VTTI. This process gives a wide opportunity and exposure to be a reliable business partner with multiple disciplines within the group, such as HSE, HR and Legal.
VTTI has a strong growth ambition and is looking for an energetic, self-starting individual who likes working in a small team with a lot of international exposure.

When you are ready to apply, the first step is simple: submit your application through our website or via LinkedIn. You will need to upload your resume and any other relevant documents specified in the job description, such as a portfolio. We also encourage you to write and upload a short cover letter explaining why you are a great fit for the role.
Do you already know someone at VTTI? If so, they may be open to sharing their experiences, answering any questions, and even introducing you as a referral candidate.
We embrace diversity, inclusivity and non-discrimination in our hiring practices, and are open to people of all backgrounds. We recognize that different applicants may have different needs, so feel free to share any support needs with our recruiter, for example due to any type of disability. It is in our interest to help you show us the best, most comfortable version of who you are.
If we think you could be a good fit, we may schedule a quick phone or video call to get to know you a little better. This is a chance for us to learn more about your background and for you to ask any questions you might have about the role or our company. We will also discuss your experience with the hiring manager or panel.
If we think you might be a better fit for a different position within our organization, now or in the future, we will contact you and discuss the opportunity and/or next steps.
We want this to be a two-way conversation—because this is also your opportunity to find out more about whether you would like to work with us and make VTTI the next step in your career. The process and the number of interviews depending on the seniority level and the location of the role. All candidates for the same position will follow the same process.
Depending on the role we might ask you to prepare a technical task or business case or ask you to complete a short personality assessment, a skills assessment, or a full day in-person assessment. The purpose of this is to give us a better sense of how you approach problem-solving, your leadership style and/or how you would apply your skills to the role.
You are also welcome to ask for an extra interview or an orientation day at the terminal or office, if you need further conversations or in-person experience to make your decision.
Whether it’s an offer or constructive feedback, we will try to communicate clearly with you about the next steps.
If you are offered the role, be available to answer any questions you might have. We know that changing jobs is something you don’t do every day and is a major life event, so we’ll try to support you as well as we can.
Good luck, and we can’t wait to meet you!
