Interim VP People

Act as the senior People lead for the leadership team — serving as the main HR point of contact for managers and employees.

Own ongoing people operations — from contracts, onboarding, and offboarding to payroll coordination, HR tooling, and compliance across jurisdictions.

Drive recruitment where needed — partnering with hiring managers to fill critical roles during the coverage period, maintaining our high bar for talent.

Support and coach managers — being a trusted sparring partner for team leads on performance, team dynamics, and people challenges.

Keep the culture strong — running or delegating key rituals (team events, onboarding experience, internal comms) to ensure the Insify culture stays vibrant.

Manage the people roadmap — picking up and delivering planned people initiatives (compensation review, engagement, L&D, tooling improvements) within the defined scope.

Ensure a smooth handover back — documenting decisions, flagging open items, and setting up the returning VP People for a clean re-entry.

Have 10+ years of People / HR experience, including time as a senior HR lead or HRBP in a fast-growing startup or scale-up environment.

Are comfortable operating as a generalist across the full people spectrum — from operational HR to culture, recruitment, and manager coaching.

Can hit the ground running — you don't need months of ramp-up; you onboard quickly and take ownership early.

Are confident advising leadership and operating without a large HR team beneath you.

Are organised, calm under ambiguity, and able to prioritise ruthlessly in a part-time capacity.

Are motivated by impact over visibility — you're here to keep things running exceptionally well, not to reinvent everything

Competitive day rate that reflects the seniority and impact of the role.

Trust and autonomy — you'll have real ownership and room to make decisions from week one.

A thorough handover from the VP People to set you up for success.

A collaborative, high-energy team that will make you feel part of Insify, even in an interim capacity.

A welcoming, central Amsterdam HQ — a nice office at Weesperplein.

An international, ambitious team that enjoys building meaningful things together.
