Head of Finance

So, who are we?Responsibly is a fast-growing and VC-backed start-up operating at the cutting edge of AI and sustainability, and with a vision of making every purchase in the world responsible. We're founded by serial entrepreneurs with previous successes like Ofload, Dixa, Neurons, and more, and are funded by some of Europe's top VCs and angels. We’re at the most exciting part of our journey (yet!) where the product is being picked up by some of the biggest companies out there.

The growth journey ahead is exciting, and ahead of Series A, we're ready to strengthen our financial and planning foundation by hiring in the first ever Head of Finance.

Let’s change the world together 🎯Look, you probably already know that there are not many bigger problems out there than the climate, but did you know that more than 40% of global emissions, or really any ESG issue, are directly or indirectly impacted by procurement? That’s because companies have an incredible amount of power (‘purchasing power’) when selecting and managing suppliers, so if we can put sustainability on every supplier scorecard out there, we really can change the world.

But it’s hard! A company will have anywhere from 100 - 100,000 suppliers and analyzing each of their sustainability efforts is an impossible task, and most ESG ratings suck. That’s what we’re trying to change. Responsibly's ai-powered due diligence engine automates the due diligence on every supplier across every single esg data point on your suppliers (from risk and violations to positive actions), and turns that into insights to ultimately help companies build more sustainable supply chains. Pretty cool right?TasksWhat you’ll be doing 🙌You're stepping into the CEO's shoes to: Lead all things money:

Accounting, payroll, invoices, cashflow, ESOP, and all admin around money coming in and money going out. This is already fairly small, and automated, and mostly outsourced, but you'll take charge of it, analyzing it, and optimizing it so we're ready to scale.
