Insify is looking for a sharp, commercially-minded, and highly driven Head of Finance to join our leadership team. In this high-impact role, you will serve as the strategic financial partner steering Insify through its next phase of aggressive European growth. If you are a finance leader who combines intellectual firepower with operational discipline and a genuine love for building, we want to meet you.

As a Head of Finance, you will own the full financial agenda: driving and delivering operational finance projects, professionalising our financial infrastructure, and leading cross-functional initiatives on topics that touch finance across the business. You will help execute and refine our corporate strategy from the inside, embedded deeply enough to shape it as you deliver it.

We are a high-growth scale-up backed by €43M in total funding from world-class investors like Accel, Munich Re Ventures, and Formula 1 champion Nico Rosberg. While we started our journey five years ago in the Netherlands, we have since expanded into France and Germany, and we're just getting started. Our mission is to dominate the European market and become a global leader in AI-powered SME insurance.

We aren't just building a company; we're leading a revolution. Our culture is intense, high-stakes, and mission-driven. We hire smart, ambitious "owners" who possess a relentless drive to win. This is an environment for those who thrive on challenges, value intellectual honesty, and share our mindset of becoming a global category leader.

Our founding team consists of seasoned entrepreneurs who have previously built iconic businesses like HelloFresh, Bloomon, and SumUp. We combine that deep fintech and e-commerce expertise with cutting-edge AI to stay ahead of the curve.

Finance Operations Leadership: Own and professionalise the full spectrum of finance operations: accounting, cash management, tax, compliance, and business partnering. You run the processes, continuously improve them, and ensure they scale as we expand across Europe.

Strategic Financial Partnership: Partner with the CEO and leadership team to drive financial planning, budgeting, and business reviews. You define the KPIs, challenge assumptions, and make sure financial discipline is embedded in every major decision.

Investor Relations and Fundraising: Lead the preparation of board materials, investor decks, and strategic narratives that distill complex financial and operational progress into compelling, high-stakes storytelling.

Risk Carrier and Regulatory Reporting: Own Insify's reporting obligations to risk carriers and ensure full compliance with regulatory and statutory requirements across all our markets.

AI and Automation in Finance: Personally identify and implement AI-driven automation across finance processes. You generate your own reports from raw data and actively seek out tools that make the function faster and sharper, without waiting for the tech team.

Team and External Partner Management: Develop a lean finance team and manage relationships with external service providers, auditors, and advisors.

~10+ years of experience in finance, ideally combining a foundation in Big 4 consulting or transaction advisory (M&A, transaction services, or commercial advisory) with operational finance experience in a fast-growing, tech-based company.

You bring a strategic, commercial lens to finance. You can read a balance sheet with the perspective of an investor, not just an accountant.

A proven storyteller: you can build a compelling investor narrative from scratch, own the slide design, and present with confidence to a board or external investors.

Technically self-sufficient: you generate your own reports and analyses from raw data, and you actively leverage AI and automation to stay ahead of the curve.

Collaborative and connected: you operate as a genuine business partner, deeply embedded in the commercial, technical, and operational context of the business.

Demonstrated experience leading financial planning processes, external financing rounds, and investor relations at a high-growth company.

Master's degree in Corporate Finance or Economics, preferably complemented by a post-master qualification (RA, CFA, or equivalent).

Fluency in English is required; Dutch is a plus.

You want to stay in your lane: This role demands a finance leader who is deeply integrated with the rest of the business. If you prefer to operate in isolation, this isn't the right fit.

You prioritise a 40-hour work week: We operate in a high-intensity 'startup-plus' environment. This isn't a standard 9-to-6; driving global impact here requires a level of dedication and 'always-on' spirit that goes well beyond the typical 40-hour work week.

You prefer polished, structured environments: Insify is high-growth and high-intensity. If you need a perfectly defined remit or a stable operating environment to do your best work, this role will be frustrating.

A steep learning curve feels daunting: We move fast and use cutting-edge AI. You need to be an aggressive self-learner who can master new domains and tools quickly.

Competitive compensation - we want to attract and retain the best so we are offering a compensation package that aligns with that.

In-office - come join us in our HQ in the center of Amsterdam.

Grow in a growing company - there’s no better place to develop your talents and learn new skills. Help us show the world that insurance can be simple, transparent and trustworthy.

Experienced entrepreneurs - work with experienced and dedicated entrepreneurs as part of an international team.

Energetic environment - as a start-up, we’re different from your usual insurers. We scale rapidly and you can pick your own initiatives, helping us grow as we help more and more customers across Europe.
