The EHPA Operations team is at the centre of the organisation, supporting finance, administration, governance, HR, office management and IT infrastructure. The Senior Finance & Operations Officer will contribute across these areas, with a particular focus on finances, and will work closely with the Operations Director and the wider team to keep daily operations efficient, reliable and well organised.

• Governance and membership administration, including member and prospect correspondence, database updates, membership applications, onboarding of new members, General Assembly support such as registration follow-up, hybrid meeting platform support and quorum checks, and Belgian legal compliance tasks.
• General operations support, including the preparation of procedures and guidelines, intranet updates and the improvement of internal workflows to increase efficiency.

• Minimum 3-5 years of experience in finances, operations, administration, or similar support role.
• Experience working with office tools, suppliers, internal systems or databases.
• Experience in a membership organisation, trade association or non-profit environment is a strong asset.
