First Sales

Who are we?

Launched in 2021, Orus is one of Europe’s fastest-growing insurtechs, on a mission to simplify professional insurance for small businesses.

Professional insurance today is complex, opaque, and inefficient. At Orus, we believe it should be simple, fast, transparent, and human.

Backed by over €41M in funding, including a €25M Series B in June, Orus is supported by leading European entrepreneurs, insurance executives, and top-tier funds such as Peec and Soda’s fund. Already serving more than 50,000 customers, Orus is rapidly expanding across Europe. The Netherlands is the largest European market following the domestic launch of Europe.

Orus is scaling fast and entering a new strategic phase with the launch of the Netherlands.

To make this a success, we’re looking for our first Sales in the country, someone who will sign our first clients and lay the foundations of a scalable sales engine.
