Insurance historically is a manual labor-intensive, admin-heavy industry. A lot of manual labour goes into reading incoming requests, processing emails and attachments from central mailboxes, forwarding to colleagues, scheduling and prioritizing tasks and archiving information into insurance back-office systems.
Our Agentic AI Solution reduces friction and brings structure to the biggest bottleneck of insurance operations: the Mailroom.
We believe technology should improve the way people interact and work towards a future where nobody is just a number.
As an Account Executive (AE) at Paperbox, you’ll play a key role in driving our growth. You’ll own the full sales cycle: from prospecting and engaging with potential customers, to running demos, shaping business cases, and closing deals. Working closely with Marketing, Customer Success, and Product, you’ll help us expand our Dutch footprint and build strong, long-term customer relationships.
This is a full-time role with flexibility for remote work and regular travel within the focus market.
Today, with more than 75 insurance customers, we’re entering a true scale-up phase. We’re growing fast, with the ambition to double our ARR, and we’re looking for someone who wants to help put oil on that fire and guide us to the next level.
