At AkzoNobel, we make paints and coatings that bring colour and protection to the world around us. Our products can be found on everything from homes and buildings to ships, cars, and critical infrastructure. Behind every innovation, every customer promise, and every business decision is a strong foundation of risk management and resilience.
This is where you come in.
We are looking for an experienced Insurance Manager to join our global in-house Insurance Department (AIS). This is a unique opportunity to operate at the centre of a multinational organization, influencing how one of the world's leading coatings companies protects its people, assets, operations, and balance sheet.
As Insurance Manager, you will not simply manage policies—you will help shape the way AkzoNobel approaches risk on a global scale.
Imagine working in a role where every day brings a different challenge.
One day, you may be negotiating insurance structures with leading international insurers. The next, you could be advising senior stakeholders on risk financing strategies, supporting a business acquisition, or helping integrate insurance programs during a major corporate transformation.
You will be part of a highly specialized international team that works across continents and business functions. Together, the team manages a sophisticated insurance landscape supported by more than 35 insurers, multiple external brokers, an in-house broker, and AkzoNobel's own captive insurance company.
In addition, AkzoNobel is currently preparing for an exciting new chapter through its planned merger with Axalta. This creates a unique opportunity to play a key role in one of the most significant insurance integration projects in our industry.
As Insurance Manager, you will:
You are someone who enjoys combining strategic thinking with practical execution. You can navigate complex international environments, build trusted relationships, and translate technical insurance concepts into clear business advice.
Beyond your experience, you are proactive, collaborative, and naturally curious. You enjoy solving problems, building partnerships, and creating practical solutions that help businesses move forward with confidence.
At AkzoNobel, you'll join a company that has been recognized as one of the top employers in the Netherlands and is committed to building a more sustainable future.
In return for your expertise and contribution, we offer:
An attractive and competitive salary.
Why AkzoNobel?
This role offers something that is increasingly rare in the insurance market: the opportunity to influence global insurance strategy from within a leading multinational organization.
You will work on complex international risks, collaborate with senior stakeholders, and play a visible role in shaping the future of a business operating in more than 150 countries.
If you are looking for a position where insurance is a strategic business enabler—not just a compliance requirement—we would love to hear from you.
At AkzoNobel we are highly committed to ensuring an inclusive and respectful workplace where all employees can be their best self. We strive to embrace diversity in a context of tolerance. Our talent acquisition process plays an integral part in this journey, as setting the foundations for a diverse environment. For this reason we train and educate on the implications of our Unconscious Bias in order for our TA and hiring managers to be mindful of them and take corrective actions when applicable. In our organization, all qualified applicants receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age or disability.
