Careers

Achter elke euro in de Jeugdzorg en de Wmo zit een aanbieder, een geldschieter en een verhaal. De Aanbiedermonitor maakt dat verhaal zichtbaar: wij vertalen grote hoeveelheden financiële en kwalitatieve data over zorgaanbieders naar inzichten waar gemeenten, inkoopregio’s en zorgverzekeraars écht op kunnen sturen.

Wij zoeken een analist die deze data omzet in scherpe, bruikbare inzichten, die resultaten met overtuiging presenteert aan onze klanten, en die slim gebruikmaakt van AI om méér uit onze data te halen. Vind je het leuk om data om te zetten in beslissingen, neem je graag eigenaarschap en wil je bijdragen aan een maatschappelijk relevant product dat volop in ontwikkeling is? Dan komen we graag met je in contact.

Over de Aanbiedermonitor en A-INSIGHTS

De Aanbiedermonitor is hét monitoringsplatform voor het Nederlandse zorgdomein. We combineren financiële data, bedrijfsstructuren en risicosignalen van zorgaanbieders binnen de Wmo en Jeugdwet tot een helder beeld voor onze klanten: gemeenten, inkoopregio’s en zorgverzekeraars. Daarmee ondersteunen we hen bij inkoop, contractmanagement, toezicht en het bewaken van de financiële gezondheid en integriteit van het zorglandschap.

De Aanbiedermonitor is onderdeel van A-INSIGHTS, dat sinds 2025 samen met Valona Intelligence de krachten heeft gebundeld. Je werkt in een klein, hecht en groeiend team: de lijntjes zijn kort, de bewegingsvrijheid is groot en je ideeën landen snel. Je krijgt de ruimte om te ondernemen, te bouwen en je eigen stempel te drukken op een product dat er maatschappelijk toe doet.

Wat ga je doen?

Je staat met één been in de data en met het andere bij de klant. Je analyseert, duidt en presenteert en je zoekt voortdurend naar manieren om onze inzichten scherper en schaalbaarder te maken, met AI als vast onderdeel van je gereedschapskist.

• Van data naar inzicht. Je voert eigen onderzoeken en analyses uit op financiële en kwalitatieve data van zorgaanbieders en vertaalt die naar concrete, actionable inzichten voor onze klanten.
• Presenteren en afronden op maat. Je presenteert onderzoeksresultaten en werkt deze op maat af voor gemeenten, inkoopregio’s en zorgverzekeraars, zodat ze direct bruikbaar zijn in hun besluitvorming.
• Trendanalyses op grote datasets. Je brengt de grote hoeveelheid beschikbare data tot waarde en signaleert patronen, risico’s en kansen die anders verborgen blijven.
• AI toepassen in je werk. Je zet AI actief in om analyses te versnellen, kwaliteit te verhogen en nieuwe inzichten te ontsluiten Je denkt mee over hoe we AI een grotere rol kunnen geven in het product en in het gesprek met zorgaanbieders.
• Projecten uitvoeren. Je draait mee in interne en externe projecten die bijdragen aan de verdere professionalisering en zichtbaarheid van de Aanbiedermonitor.

Projecten die je oppakt

• Aanbiederanalyses. Je doorgrondt de financiële positie, bedrijfsstructuur en risicoprofielen van zorgaanbieders en vertaalt dat naar heldere conclusies voor onze klanten.
• Klantonderzoeken op maat. Je voert gerichte analyses uit op vragen van gemeenten, regio’s en verzekeraars, van scenario’s rond tarieven tot signalen van financiële kwetsbaarheid.
• Productontwikkeling. Je denkt mee over nieuwe analyses, dashboards en AI-toepassingen die de Aanbiedermonitor sterker en zichtbaarder maken in de markt.

Hoe ziet succes eruit?

• Na 30 dagen. Je kent onze data, ons product en ons team, je begrijpt de wereld van het sociaal domein en zorg in brede zin, waarin onze klanten opereren en je draait mee in lopende analyses.
• Na 90 dagen. Je voert zelfstandig analyses uit, levert resultaten op maat op en presenteert je inzichten met vertrouwen aan klanten.
• Na 180 dagen. Je pakt je eigen onderzoeken en projecten zelfstandig op, je past AI vanzelfsprekend toe in je werk en je draagt zichtbaar bij aan de groei van het team en het product.

Wat breng je mee?

Wat we ongeveer zoeken:

• Bij voorkeur 1 à 2 jaar werkervaring in financiële data-analyse;
• Affiniteit met of ervaring in het sociaal domein (Wmo en/of Jeugdzorg);
• Ervaring met of interesse in werken voor overheidsinstellingen, gemeenten en/of zorgverzekeraars;
• Een sterke focus op de toepassing van AI in je werk en de nieuwsgierigheid om daar steeds beter in te worden;
• Een ondernemende instelling: je neemt eigenaarschap, groeit graag persoonlijk én draagt bij aan de groei van het team;
• Een hart voor het maatschappelijk belang van wat we doen;
• Je spreekt en schrijft vloeiend Nederlands – dit is een harde eis, omdat we onze analyses in het Nederlands opleveren.What we offer

We are a team of 4 engineers, mostly based in Amsterdam, with people from many different countries. Most of us are medior or senior, so you will have experienced colleagues to learn from. Within Valona the team is part of a large Tech unit with engineers working across the globe. We value initiative, both inside the team and with the rest of the business. For example, if you see a way to make a dataflow more useful for the business, we expect you to bring that idea forward yourself, not wait to be asked.

As you grow into the role, you will take on more complex dataflows and more responsibility. There is no fixed ladder, but on a small team your growth is visible, and you talk about it directly with your manager.

What you’ll be doing

You help run our data platform: getting data in, validating, cleaning and transforming it into clean tables, and making it available to the rest of the company. You also help us use AI in this work.

• Collect structured and unstructured data with Python scrapers and API connectors.
• Handle the first steps of our ELT process: validation, normalization, schema mapping, and entity mapping (matching the same company, product, or source across different datasets), so other teams get clean, reliable tables.
• Write and improve SQL that turns raw data into clean staging and processed tables. This is a mix of Python and SQL work, moving between the two as needed. You also write stored procedures, and follow best practices for schema design, indexing, and storage.
• Be the primary developer of one or more dataflows end-to-end, from ingestion all the way to the API that exposes the data to other teams and systems.
• Debug and fix problems fast, using logs, metrics, and alerts.
• Review code, write tests, and keep the codebase clean. Improve each part of the system you touch.
• Use AI tools daily to help you code (for example Claude Code). Connect your data to the AI agents our AI team builds in Microsoft Foundry, by exposing clean, well-structured data and APIs they can use.

Projects in your first year

• Add new types of data as the business grows, for example patent data or financial data.
• Improve our tools for matching public data to our own records.
• Help the business with data quality, such as fix mappings, updating records, or making manual changes when needed.

Ongoing work

• Build and maintain Python ingestion jobs and SQL-based ELT pipelines, moving between the two as the work needs. Keep the pipelines simple, modular, and easy to monitor.
• Development and maintenance of our CI/CD pipelines and follow the internal workflow
• Monitor data pipelines in Azure and via Power BI.
• Help keep the data platform reliable, scalable, and secure.
• Follow and expand on good practices for design, testing, and documentation.
• Build and maintain the Azure infrastructure needed for data ingestion and transformation.
• Use AI tools where they help, from coding assistants to connecting our data to the agents our AI team builds.

Tech stack

Tools you’ll use every day

• Python (including Pandas, Selenium, and our internal libraries)
• SQL (SQL Server Management Studio)
• API integration (REST, GraphQL)
• Azure DevOps (CI/CD pipelines)
• Git
• Docker and Azure Container Registry
• Azure Function App and Azure Durable Function
• Azure Logic App
• AI coding tools, such as Claude Code

Tools you’ll also use

• Microsoft Foundry (formerly Azure AI Foundry)
• Azure App Services
• Fabric
• Spark including PySpark
• Azure Storage (Blob, Table, Queue)
• Azure Monitor / Application Insights

What We’re Looking For:

• 2 to 4 years of experience as a data engineer, with experience in both Python and SQL.
• Experience developing and maintaining code that runs in production.
• Good SQL skills: you can write and optimize queries against a relational database, ideally SQL Server.
• Experience with Azure (or other cloud infrastructure).
• Experienced in using Git and Git workflow
• A good understanding of clean code, common design patterns, and debugging.
• Comfortable working with data: data quality rules, different formats, transformations, and matching records between sources.
• Experienced with development in popular IDE tooling’s, preferably VS Code
• Interested in using AI tools to work faster, not only in building AI features.

What we offer: 

• Salary range (depending on experience): €54.000 – €59.500 gross per year on a basis of a 40-hour work week.
• Competitive compensation package, including a 8% holiday allowance and a performance bonus of up to 10% of gross salary.
• A senior, client-facing role with real ownership and room to grow with the company.
• Pension, bonus program, and a budget for internal and external training on the path you choose.
• A team that works and celebrates together: dinners, BBQs, boat trips and padel.

Your customers are making decisions that shape their businesses — which markets to enter, which suppliers to trust, which competitors to watch. Your job is to make sure Valona intelligence is in the room when those decisions get made.

You are a consultative business partner who happens to have access to one of the most powerful market intelligence tools in the industry. You ask the right questions before proposing solutions. You understand your customers’ industries, their pressures, and their strategic priorities — and you use that understanding to connect Valona’s capabilities to outcomes that genuinely matter to them.

High adoption follows naturally when customers see real business impact. Your measure of success isn’t logins — it’s whether your customers are making better, faster decisions because of Valona. And underneath all of that sits the rigour of great customer success: strong relationships, clean renewal processes, proactive risk management, and a portfolio that grows.

Reports To: 

Head of Customer Success

Start Date: 

ASAP

Responsibilities

Strategic Business Partnership

• Develop a deep understanding of each customer’s industry, competitive landscape, and strategic priorities — not just their use of the platform.
• Position yourself as a trusted advisor at VP and C-suite level, capable of holding substantive conversations about market dynamics, not just product features.
• Connect Valona intelligence directly to customer business outcomes: sourcing decisions, competitive responses, market entry, M&A signals, risk mitigation.
• Bring proactive insight to customers — surface relevant signals or trends from the platform before the customer thinks to ask.
• Help customers articulate and measure the business value Valona delivers, so the renewal conversation is about outcomes, not price.

Customer Value Realisation

• Own the customer journey from onboarding through renewal for a portfolio of approximately 30 customers.
• Ensure customers achieve measurable business outcomes through Valona — not just platform familiarity.
• Conduct regular business reviews that anchor on customer goals and strategic priorities, not product updates.
• Monitor customer health scores and act proactively when engagement or outcomes decline.

Onboarding & Solution Implementation

• Lead the onboarding process for new customers, ensuring a smooth transition from sales to delivery.
• Coordinate with Solution Consultants on solution design and implementation.
• Establish clear success criteria tied to business outcomes, not just adoption milestones.
• Ensure time-to-value is minimised and initial adoption is strong.

Adoption & Enablement

• Drive platform adoption by embedding Valona into the workflows and decisions that matter most to each customer.
• Develop customer-specific enablement plans based on their maturity, use cases, and strategic context.
• Identify and engage new user groups and stakeholders within customer organisations.
• Share best practices and use cases from across the customer base to accelerate value.

Renewals & Retention

• Own the renewal process and proactively manage renewal timelines.
• Identify and mitigate churn risk through early intervention — grounded in outcome data, not just usage metrics.
• Build multi-stakeholder relationships to reduce single-point-of-failure dependency.
• Achieve pod-specific NRR and C&C (churn and contraction) targets.

Cross-functional Coordination

• Work in sync with Account Managers and Solution Consultants on focus customers.
• Flag expansion opportunities to Account Management — framed around customer strategic needs, not upsell prompts.
• Collaborate with Support on technical issues affecting customer satisfaction.
• Provide structured customer feedback to Product and Marketing.

What We’re Looking For

Essential

• Experience:  5–7 years suggested in a Customer Success, Account Management, or consultative advisory role — ideally in a B2B SaaS or information services environment. We care more about the quality of your commercial experience than the number of years; exceptional candidates who are earlier in their career will absolutely be considered.
• Background in or strong familiarity with Manufacturing, Medical Devices, Automotive or Financial Services is a strong advantage. You need to be able to speak your customers’ language from day one.
• Consultative approach: You ask questions before proposing solutions. You diagnose before you prescribe. You earn trust through insight, not just responsiveness.
• Proven ability to hold senior-level commercial conversations — as comfortable discussing market strategy as platform capabilities.
• Strong portfolio management — able to balance depth of engagement on strategic accounts with breadth across a ~30-account book.
• Outcome-oriented mindset: you measure your own success by whether customers make better decisions, not by whether they complete onboarding tasks.
• Data-driven: comfortable working with usage data, NRR metrics, health scores, and business impact evidence.
• Fluency in English required. Additional languages a plus.

 Preferred

• Familiarity with competitive intelligence, market research, or market monitoring platforms — you understand why customers buy this category.
• Experience with Salesforce for account and pipeline management.
• Comfortable using AI tools — including Claude — as part of day-to-day workflows: research, customer preparation, communication, analysis.
• Experience with CSM platforms such as Gainsight, Totango, ChurnZero, or similar.
• Experience working in a scale-up or fast-growth environment where the playbook is still being written.

What we offer

• Competitive compensation package, including a 8% holiday allowance and a performance bonus of up to 10% of gross salary.
• A senior, client-facing role with real ownership and room to grow with the company.
• Pension, bonus program, and a budget for internal and external training on the path you choose.
• Company matching retirement savings plan (RRSP & DPSP) (after qualifying employment period)
• Medical, dental, life and AD&D coverage
