Finance Assistant - The Hoxton, Amsterdam

We're looking for a Finance Assistant to join our team at The Hoxton, Amsterdam. In our small finance team, we pull the strings in the background and make sure that the numbers add up. Reporting to the Director of Finance, you will be responsible for supporting the management accounts in relation to the hotels and restaurants.

Once the Mayor’s home, now our home, on Amsterdam’s Herengracht canal. The Hoxton, Amsterdam houses 111 rooms, The Apartment, our meetings & events concept, and our all-day restaurant & bar, Lotti’s.

More about us…

The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces. 

What’s in it for you… 

• Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
• Competitive salary.
• 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays) and pension.
• Food on us during your shift.
• Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us.
• Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make and thrive to set you up for success at work.
• Time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
• Hox Hero and Nifty fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
• An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact.
• Regular team get togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time!
• The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
• Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
• Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family.

What you'll do...

• Coordinate and assist daily, monthly quarterly and annual reporting activities for the region.
• Control of daily transactions.
• You prepare monthly and annual financial statements.
• You are used to accounts receivable / payable as well as asset accounting.
• You are responsible for reconciling the balance sheet accounts.
• You will coordinate with the different departments regarding accounting processes.
• You ensure quick procedures of correspondence.

What we're looking for...

• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once
• If we got stuck in a lift together we’d have a good time and share a few laughs
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way
• You’ve had 1-2 years of professional experience in finance and controlling, ideally at a hotel or catering facility, and speak English fluently.
• You’ll bring exactitude, service orientation and team spirit to your job, so that you can give your colleagues optimal support in negotiating the maze of figures.
• You’re a doer – and even if you do it wrong sometimes, you openly admit it.
