Founder / CEO / Venture Builder

Over deze vacature

Build your own start-up! We are looking for experienced CEOs / co-founders who are passionate about a business idea they bring along which they want to build together with Achmea. True team players who have already proven that they can build impactful companies within our domains (Housing, Employment, Health, Income and Mobility) but preferably away from our core business; insurance.

Are you ready to be the driving force behind the development of new services or products that customers really want?

You will be energized by the entrepreneurial environment in which you form a founding team together with a CPO and have other roles join as the venture grows. As a founding team you are responsible for all stages of the development of innovative proposals, from problem fit and business case to identifying organizational and technical requirements for launch or scaling.

Both the Hub’s own team of experts (i.e., UX/UI, data engineers and others) and experts throughout the Achmea organization will help you on your way to quickly define clear problems to tackle and develop the right solutions and concepts that will be the basis for a strong venture. For the development of the venture, you will pitch for funding internally.

We link the employment contract to the progress of your venture, so that you, as the founder of the company, determine your own future. Initially we offer a three-month contract so we can explore, build a first prototype, find first customers, and determine the potential of your idea. If we both like what we see, we extend our cooperation. Your personal path of growth aligns directly with the growth of the venture.

De afdeling

Every day the team of the Achmea Innovation Hub deploys itself to find an overview of the market’s wants and wishes and to figure out how these could lead to impactful and profitable services for Achmea. As a team we have our own mindset

and approach to this. We work quickly, define our opportunities, and go out to validate them. Less talk, more action! We get evidence from our customers and let them guide us on our path. Above all, we have fun. Focusing on our strengths and having a good work-life balance is what keeps us innovative. Luckily, all people are different. We believe that diversity helps us in attaining the best solutions. Day in day out we work on an increasingly diverse and inclusive environment where everyone is allowed to be themselves. Together we work on a safe, healthy, and sustainable society.

Do you want a spot in a dynamic and enterprising team, consisting of positive, motivated, highly skilled and out-of-the-box thinking colleagues? Where no day is the same, where we keep each other focused and where a growth-mindset is infectious? NOTE: due to the substantial number of applicants we ask you to add a cover letter explaining what business you would like to build with us and what your motivation is for building this business. Applications without a cover letter can unfortunately not be considered. 

Jouw achtergrond

Your energetic world view is refreshing and different. You see chances others do not and enthuse people into renewed concepts. Using an entrepreneurial drive and a structured approach, you turn ideas into successes. You are ready for sharp and constructive discussion about breaking through established conventions.

We‘d also like to find the following elements in your professional profile:

  • 10+ year experience as an entrepreneur
  • You have extensive experience developing and launching new businesses yourself, in Housing / Employment / Mobility, from scratch with few means.
  • You have experience pitching others (investors, employees, partners) your ideas or ventures. You are a real collaborator and can take the lead if necessary.
  • You can bring people together, to communicate with people from all levels of the organization, to challenge them and to hold them to the agreements they have reached; 
  • You are highly organized, a strong planner and budget-maker;
  • You have worked in a leading role in a startup/scaleup environment;
  • You will have experience of one or more innovation and design methodologies (e.g., Agile, Lean Startup, Design Thinking, Prototyping, Growth Hacking) and an affinity with technology, UX and UI processes;
  • You are proficient in Dutch and English and have a bachelor's or master's degree, or equivalent professional and intellectual ability.
