Accountant

Insify is a high-growth scale-up building AI-powered SME insurance, with teams across the Netherlands, France, and Germany.

Our culture is intense, high-stakes, and mission-driven. We hire smart, ambitious “owners” who thrive on challenges, value intellectual honesty, and share a mindset of becoming a global category leader.

What You’ll Be Up To (some examples):

• Manage day‑to‑day accounting operations, including processing invoices, preparing payments, and keeping ledgers accurate through timely journal entries.
• Perform periodic reconciliations across bank accounts, the general ledger, payroll, and intercompany balances, while ensuring accurate and timely tax and VAT submissions.
• Carry out month-end, quarter-end, and year-end closing activities.
• Produce clear, insightful financial reporting, including monthly management reports, investor updates, and variance analyses.
• Assist in the preparation of financial statements according to Dutch GAAP.
• Support statutory audit requests and communicate with external auditors.
• Strengthen financial processes by identifying risks, improving controls, and implementing scalable, efficient workflows.
• Lead and contribute to ad hoc projects as needed.

Your Profile:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or equivalent.
• 2–3 years of experience in accounting or financial controlling.
• Proficiency with Microsoft and ERP systems (Exact is a strong plus).
• Good understanding of general accounting and financial control principles.
• Proven ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced, multicultural environment.
• Strong analytical skills with a structured approach and attention to detail.
• Proactive self-starter with a strong sense of ownership and the ability to work independently.
• Excellent oral and written communication skills in English.

Who this is not for:

You prioritize a 40-hour work week

• We operate in a high-intensity “startup-plus” environment. This isn’t a standard 9-to-5; 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 your comfort zone

• We operate at the edge of our capabilities; if you aren’t comfortable with constant change and being challenged, you won’t thrive here.

You prefer to stay high-level

• While this is a strategic role, no task is too small. If you aren’t willing to roll up your sleeves and get into the “weeds” of execution, this isn’t the right fit.

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 in days, not months.

What we offer:

• 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.
