  • Optional ESOP shares after a year

  • Choose your own laptop to work with

  • A flexible setup: hybrid working, short decision lines and trust

About you

You’re someone who thrives on fixing broken things, not by patching symptoms, but by solving root causes. You enjoy complexity and have a natural drive to optimize. You get a kick out of making processes lean, automated, and audit-proof. When things go sideways (and they will), you stay calm, focused, and solution-oriented.

At Deftpower, we move fast and value progress over perfection, as long as what we deliver is solid, thoughtful, and adds real value. You’re not afraid to take ownership, align stakeholders and dig deep into data to uncover insights that improve how we work. You combine financial awareness with a sharp eye for operational detail, knowing that at scale, even small inefficiencies can cost a lot.

  • Experience improving business-critical processes such as lead-to-cash, sales operations, ERP or internal control

  • Proven ability to automate, document, and simplify complex workflows

  • Strong analytical skills and confidence working with large volumes of transactional data

  • You must have an EU passport or valid work visa and live near Arnhem.

  • You are a match with our values!
