Loading LAYIQ…From Insify's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
The legal infrastructure behind insurance is as broken as the products themselves. Regulations written for a different era, compliance frameworks that slow companies down instead of protecting them, and legal teams that show up at the end to say no instead of at the beginning to say here's how.
We're doing it differently.
Insify is 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. In five years, we've expanded from the Netherlands into France and Germany, and we're just getting started. Our mission: become the European 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 bring that same bias for speed, scale, and high standards to one of the most structurally broken experiences in financial services. Together, we combine that deep fintech and e-commerce expertise with cutting-edge AI to stay ahead of the curve.
We're looking for a Legal Counsel who wants to be a builder, not a gatekeeper.
This is not a role where you sit at the end of the process and review contracts. You'll be embedded in the business — working alongside Product, Growth, and Commercial from the start — shaping how Insify launches new products, enters new markets, and scales its legal and compliance infrastructure across Europe. You'll own GDPR, navigate the regulatory complexity of a multi-jurisdiction insurtech, and be the person who turns legal risk into a competitive advantage rather than a reason to slow down.
As we expand into new European markets, you'll help lay the legal groundwork that makes each new country faster to enter than the last. The work is varied, the stakes are real, and the impact is immediate.
What you’ll be doing:: Be the trusted legal voice across the business, advising on Dutch and EU commercial and regulatory law, building our legal posture from the ground up, and making sure the business moves fast without moving blind
Stay ahead of legal and regulatory developments across the Netherlands, France, and the markets we're entering next, and turn complex regulatory shifts into clear, strategic guidance the business can act on Own our international expansion from a legal perspective, helping navigate the groundwork that makes each new European market faster and smarter to enter than the last
This role is a strong fit if you:: You are a lawyer who’s done legal advice at a law firm and now wants to actually build something.
You've seen how legal work gets done from the outside and you're ready to own it from the inside. Specifically, this role is for you if you want to:
Fluency in Dutch and English, any other European language is a plus!
The chance to do some of the most interesting legal work in European insurtech, alongside a team of sharp, ambitious people from diverse backgrounds across fintech, e-commerce, insurance, consulting, and beyond
Real room to grow, with in-house leadership programmes and coaching as we scale!
