Financial Controller

Founded in 1851, De Monchy Group has built over 170 years of expertise in trading spices and agri-commodities. That heritage is the foundation on which De Monchy Natural Products operates today, supplying a curated range of spices (vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves) to the fragrance, flavour, and food & beverage industries.
Our strength lies in the depth of our partnerships. From Madagascar and Uganda to Indonesia, we work closely with local partners at origin, ensuring quality, traceability, and shared value throughout the supply chain.

We are a global business, headquartered in Rotterdam, in The Netherlands, with subsidiaries across three continents (Madagascar, Indonesia, USA). What holds us together is a culture driven by entrepreneurship, passion, and a genuine respect for the diversity of people and perspectives that make our work possible.
