Our vision

We are on a mission to reinvent procurement by transforming complex processes into simple and automated actions. Najar empowers businesses with cutting-edge procurement solutions that are adaptable, reliable, and focused on long-term financial health. With our AI-driven platform, businesses can confidently navigate the complexities of procurement, ensuring that every decision is visible, precise, and built to last.

With Najar, businesses have the tools they need to take control of their procurement processes, optimize spending, and unlock the full power of automation. Just like the navigation systems in a spaceship’s control room, our platform ensures that every insight is within reach.

About us

Our cofounder, who previously led the financial department in another company, experienced the pain around procurement processes and the lack of clarity and information. To solve this, he founded Najar in 2021. In just a few years, we’ve grown to several millions in ARR supporting 200+ customers in France and across Europe in their procurement journey, growing the team to 70+ people (including remote employees).

Following a successful Seed funding round and a Series A of €15 million led by 13Books, Portage and Tomcat, we are focused on continuing our growth and expanding our impact in the market. We have the ambition of being the leading procurement solution in France, and Europe. Our goal is to become the strategic partner for businesses, their Architect of Trust.

Your role

As Najar enters its next phase of growth, finance becomes a core strategic function. We are looking for a VP Finance to build and lead our internal finance function and act as a key strategic partner to the founders. This role is critical as we scale from €5M to €15M+ ARR and beyond. Our CFO will ensure financial rigor, operational efficiency, and long-term profitability in a fast-moving environment.

Beyond managing finance operations, you will structure processes, drive financial performance, support fundraising, and bring strategic clarity to decision-making. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who combines strong financial expertise with a builder mindset.
