  • Act as a sparring partner to the CEO and report directly to leadership


5. Statutory annual financial statements

  • The preparation of the statutory annual financial statements, including the balance sheet, profit and loss account, and notes.
  • Supervising the external auditor, acting as the primary point of contact, and ensuring the timely provision of all required documentation.
  • Ensuring that the financial statements are presented to the shareholders/Supervisory Board in a timely manner and filed with the Chamber of Commerce.
  • Ensuring that the figures present a “true and fair view” of the financial position, in accordance with relevant reporting standards (such as RJ or IFRS)
