Description
We are looking for a Business Controller Logistics to bring financial clarity to how we move and store our chocolate around the world.
From inbound and outbound logistics to warehousing and inventory, you will connect the numbers to what is happening in our supply chain, helping us make better decisions as we grow our business and our impact.
You will be the go-to finance partner for our Heads of Operations in Europe and the US and our S&OP Manager. Together, you will understand performance, challenge assumptions and identify opportunities to improve efficiency.
Whether you are unpacking the impact of tariffs and freight rates or building a business case for a new logistics initiative, you will turn complex information into clear recommendations.
Based in Amsterdam, you will report to the Supply Chain Finance Manager and join our six-person Business Planning & Performance team. Alongside your logistics focus, you will support month-end close and the wider supply chain planning cycle.
If you love getting into the detail while keeping sight of the bigger picture, this could be your next move.

- Build business cases that deliver: Partner with operational teams on new supply chain initiatives, making assumptions, risks and financial trade-offs clear before sign-off. Track actual performance and embed new initiatives into our planning and control framework.
- Support the wider finance cycle: Help the Supply Chain Finance Manager deliver month-end close and planning for our Bars entities in the Netherlands and the US. Prepare transfer pricing models, coordinate operational inputs and support other supply chain finance topics when needed.
