Over ons:

Do you want to be part of something unique? DAS provides an environment powered by a clear vision slogan
:support mutual understanding.

DAS is the market leader in legal protection insurance in Belgium. Our core business is offering legal protection to individuals, entrepreneurs and corporations.

Our vision is simple, yet challenging:
to be the best, most reliable and inspiring partner. We do this by building an environment where we can grow, feel empowered and excel together.

We are nothing like the average insurance company: we foster human connection at the core of our mission having a direct impact on our employees, customers and partners.

To accomplish this, we need supportive individuals willing to experiment, celebrate things that go well and share their regrets with us.

We wrote a nice formal vacancy below of the expectations of the function, but there is so much more than thisWe focus heavily on our culture and the mindset of the people we attract.

Therefore we emphasize the need for personal development through a dedicated support team providing coaching and facilitates training across the whole organization.

What about the Finance team within DAS

We, the Finance team within DAS, are organized in conscious lean way and consist currently of 5 people (6 if we count you in).

Hence, the function we propose to you, well described below, is therefore very diverse offering everyone within the team a variety of different experiences.

You get the opportunity to get expertise in the fields you are interested in (off course in dialogue with the team, decided as a team and in line with the objectives of DAS).

Next to that, currently, the team is evolving from a kind of traditional team to a self-steering team. We are already well self-organized. We currently work two days in the office in Brussels. The three other days we work from home or one of the other 4 offices across Belgium.

What this function is about in short

You will become part of the team mentioned above, composed of two Accountants, one Financial Expert, one Financial Controller and one CFO (who also has HR, BTT and Procurement & Facility Management under his wings).

Although we wish the organization is as flat as possible and as we are working towards a network of teams, formal hierarchy is still needed for the time being, so you report hierarchically and functionally to the CFO (member of the Executive Committee) of DAS.

You co-create together with the Finance team how the company's vision and mission applies to Finance and establish with the team how it translates in strategic initiatives and actions.

What we are certainly looking for
The Finance team is looking in a first instance for a personal match. The mindset is in a first instance the most important.

Which mindset? Flexible, communicative and expressive on your own needs, wanting to help and collaborate, deepen expertise and welcoming change.

You want to be in the driver seat. Have a look and check with yourselves
