Function

The role of the IFS Finance Application Expert is intrinsically linked to Denys NV’s strategic ambition to achieve sustainable, controlled growth within its complex, multidisciplinary construction and infrastructure projects. The company requires highly reliable and efficient financial governance to manage this scale, its international operations, and its numerous entities and joint ventures. The IFS ERP system, implemented to future-proof the organization, is the critical engine that enables this governance.

Therefore, the primary objective of the IFS Finance Application Expert is to act as an internal specialist who stabilizes, improves, and optimizes financial processes within IFS Cloud. Through this focus on process optimization (and the management of financial master data), the role ensures that financial data is accurate, timely, and efficiently available for strategic decision-making. The IFS Finance Application Expert provides strong expertise to support organizational dynamics related to the creation of new entities. In addition, the role is aimed at providing support and training to key users, which is essential for smooth system adoption and for minimizing operational disruptions.

All of this makes the IFS Finance Application Expert a vital link bridging the gap between financial business requirements and the technical capabilities of the ERP system, enabling the organization to manage growth in a secure and structured manner.

The IFS Finance Application Expert is the key figure responsible for stabilizing, optimizing, and future-proofing the financial processes within IFS Cloud following the recent implementation. The role combines in-depth analysis and project-based work with essential operational support, with an expected balance of approximately 50% incident and problem solving/analysis and 50% project work.

IFS Finance Application Expert @ Group Denys

Denys NV is a multidisciplinary construction and infrastructure group that has been active for decades in the fields of water, energy, mobility, civil engineering, renovation, and specialized techniques. Thanks to this broad expertise, Denys delivers complex projects in Belgium, across Europe, and beyond, and acts as a trusted partner whenever technical challenges are substantial. One example is the expansion and renovation of its own office in Wondelgem, a project that symbolizes its in-house “design-to-construction” model.

At the same time, tunnelling is one of Denys’s core specializations. With extensive expertise in micro- and mid-size tunnelling, Denys bores tunnels beneath rivers or urban areas, which is essential for infrastructure works in challenging soil conditions.

In the field of energy infrastructure, Denys carries out ambitious pipeline projects. Recently, on behalf of Fluxys, Denys worked on the installation of a new underground hydrogen pipeline, including a section beneath the River Scheldt — a technical tour de force that contributes to sustainable energy supply in Belgium. In addition, Denys constructs industrial pipelines, water pipelines, and complete water infrastructure systems, ranging from pumping stations and water towers to distribution networks, not only for drinking water but also for industrial applications.

Denys is also active in rail and infrastructure projects, including roads, civil works, railway lines, tunnels, bridges, and stations. Furthermore, renovation and restoration of existing buildings or monuments form part of its services. Using specialized techniques such as injections, foundation reinforcement, and concrete repair, Denys restores old or damaged structures to optimal condition.

Thanks to the diversity of its disciplines — from waterworks to tunnelling, from pipelines to renovations — Denys is often the ideal partner when multiple areas of expertise come together within a single project. This makes the company flexible, technically strong, and capable of delivering tailor-made solutions. Its international ambition and experience, combined with technical know-how and innovative thinking, make Denys NV ready for the challenges of today and tomorrow.
