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.

Were founded by serial entrepreneurs with previous successes like Ofload Dixa Neurons and more and are funded by some of Europes top VCs and angels.

Were 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 were ready to strengthen our financial and planning foundation by hiring in the first ever Head of Finance.

Lets 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 Thats 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 its hard! A company will have anywhere from 100 - 100000 suppliers and analyzing each of their sustainability efforts is an impossible task and most ESG ratings suck.

Thats what were trying to change. Responsiblys 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
