Traineeship Insurance Operations

Amsterdam

We are a start-up offering an end-to-end digital insurance platform focussing solely on European entrepreneurs and SMEs. We offer the best insurance to our customers thanks to our focus on user experience, our leading underwriting services, and our expertise in data. In short, we've made getting insured quick, transparent and simple.

We know how to innovate - our team of seasoned entrepreneurs has built a host of successful businesses in fintech and e-commerce (HelloFresh, Bloomon and SumUp to name a few!)).We've already raised over €25M in funding from leading investors (Accel Ventures, Frontline Ventures, Visionaries Club, , etc.), who love what we do and see the potential for a revolution in digital insurance.

We started our journey in the Netherlands and with our mission to make business insurance fast, simple and fair we have been able to have a significant impact on that market. Since last year we also serve customers in France and Germany, and are rapidly expanding across the rest of Europe!

At Insify, we're building more than just an insurance company-we're creating a culture that's bold, caring, and built to make a real difference. Everything we do is driven by our core values: grit , impact , care , and entrepreneurship .

We show up with passion and perseverance. We solve real problems and put people first-especially our customers. And we're always looking for smarter, faster, more human ways to do things.

That's also why we've chosen a pro-office approach. We believe that working together, face to face, sparks creativity, builds stronger teams, and helps us learn faster-especially for new joiners. From spontaneous brainstorms to shared lunches, being in the same space makes the magic happen.

Joining Insify means being part of a team that truly backs each other and the entrepreneurs we serve. If you're ready to grow, innovate, and help reshape the insurance industry from the inside out-we'd love to meet you.

Operations Team

We're the ones building trust with every interaction-whether it's a sale, a support conversation, or handling a claim. We make sure prospects and customers feel supported, heard, and cared for. Speed and quality matter to us, and we track our progress closely so we can keep improving. Looking ahead, we're preparing for medical underwriting in 2025-another step in making our service even stronger.
