# Head of Finance at Vizzia

- **Company:** Vizzia
- **Location:** Paris, France
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** hybrid
- **Posted:** 2026-09-16
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-09-17
- **Apply:** https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/vizzia/48915b03-5563-43e8-9fda-7f24de903fda

## Job description

Context 250+ local authorities rely on Vizzia to keep their streets cleaner and safer. Growing from there means deciding faster: which contracts to push, which products to price differently, where the next euro goes. Those calls need numbers that are current, not numbers that land three weeks after the month has closed. That is what this role is for. We are looking for a Head of Finance to own the finance function end to end: the monthly close, the cash position, the business plan, and the profitability read across the contract portfolio. A good part of the job is building the plumbing before running it, so that inventory and CRM data feeds the reporting on its own and a five day close holds month after month. Vizzia sells hardware and software to public sector clients, which means real physical flows, real working capital, and a business plan that moves with prices and sales.

## What You'll Do

1. Close the month on a fixed calendar

- Produce the P&L and the cash position within five working days of month end
- Own the monthly close and keep the calendar predictable enough that the rest of the company plans around it

1. Build the data chain behind the numbers

- Connect the inventory and CRM data to the reporting so figures arrive automatically instead of being reconciled by hand
- Set up the reporting and modelling foundations the company relies on to decide

1. Keep the business plan live

- Reforecast frequently as sales come in and prices move, rather than rebuilding the plan once a year
- Rework the plan quickly when the product trajectory shifts

1. Own the profitability read

- Build a contract level view of profitability across the portfolio, covering hardware, stock and deployment costs
- Tell the leadership team which contracts are worth pushing and which are not, and back it with numbers
- Review supplier contracts and push client contracts toward longer commitments

1. Build the function and support the leadership team

- Manage the finance team (accounting and FP&A) and make each person autonomous on their scope
- Run scenarios that give the leadership team the reading keys on strategic trade-offs, without blocking initiatives in a company that takes deliberate risks
- Keep the company fundraise ready, including the data room

## Who You Are

- You have built financial reporting yourself, close included, and can explain how the numbers are produced, not only what they say.
- You have worked in a business with real physical flows: inventory, purchasing, supply. You know what it takes to get reliable figures out of a chain that was never designed for reporting.
- You have run a business plan as a living model, reforecast against actual sales and moving prices rather than set once a year.
- You take a position on profitability. You can look at a portfolio of contracts and say which ones make money, and defend that reading at leadership level.
- You have been through scale-up growth, where processes change every few months and you lead the change rather than wait for things to settle.
- You are hands on and you move fast. A lot of the finance infrastructure here is still to build.

At Vizzia we care about precision, ownership, and getting things moving. This role is based in Paris.

## About Vizzia

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Vizzia provides mobile surveillance devices and software that help European local authorities tackle illegal dumping, public safety issues, and anti-social behaviour while respecting privacy and GDPR.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series B, raised ~$58.9M total)
- **Headquarters**: Paris, France (51 Rue de Turbigo, 75003)
- **Founded**: 2020
- **Founders**: Catherine De Proyart (CEO) and Alexandre Leboucher (CTPO)

## Core Business
- Primary industry: Public-sector technology / GovTech / Municipal enforcement
- Target customers: B2G – local authorities (towns, cities, councils) and their enforcement teams (municipal police, technical services)
- Mission: “Make cities and communities better places to live — cleaner, safer, easier to look for.”

## Products & Services
- **Vizzia Waste**: A hardware + software solution to detect and stop illegal dumping. Remotely deployed mobile devices capture incidents (GPS, timestamp, imagery) and streamline evidence collection, legal procedures, and fine issuance. Up to 90% reduction in fly-tipping reported.
- **Vizzia Safety**: Similar platform focused on public safety disturbances (anti-social behaviour, local safety issues). Helps municipalities spot offences, gather admissible evidence, and take action without intrusive surveillance.
- Both products are GDPR‑compliant, hosted in the EU, require no roadworks or fiber, and can be deployed “in days, not months.”

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metrics**:
  - €1M+ in fines collected through the platform
  - 110,000+ incidents reported in the last 12 months
  - 200+ cities equipped across Europe (250+ per some sources)
- **Total Funding**: ~$58.9M (Series B of ~$35.4M raised in February 2026)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Headline, Base10 Partners, SISTAFUND, Made for All
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Headcount grew to 130+ (as of May 2026) with “strong growth ahead”
  - Expansion across Europe: from rural towns to large councils
  - Series B raised only 4 months ago indicates strong investor confidence and cash runway

## Competitive Advantages
- **Speed & Simplicity**: No construction or fiber required; devices are easily moved and deployed remotely.
- **GDPR‑first Privacy**: Data hosted in the EU and designed from the start to protect civil liberties, a critical trust factor for public-sector clients.
- **Legal‑Ready Output**: Each detection includes the forensic metadata (GPS, timestamp, imagery) needed to issue fines and prosecute cases – reducing administrative burden on enforcement teams.
- **Tangible Resident‑Visible Results**: Metrics like “90% decrease in fly-tipping” help councils demonstrate impact to residents.

## Strategic Focus
- Continue scaling across Europe’s 200+ already‑equipped municipalities and entering new countries.
- Deepen the product suite to cover more municipal pain points (cleanliness, safety) while staying “simple and results‑oriented.”
- Invest in the platform’s automation to further reduce manual paperwork for enforcement teams.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: The company looks for “owners, not executors” – people who move fast, push for outcomes, and care about citizens behind the product. Emphasis on inventing, simplifying, and amplifying the team rather than optimizing one’s own lane.
- **Team Size**: ~130 people with a “strong growth ahead” – opportunity to have outsized impact as the company scales.
- **Location & Flexibility**: Headquarters in central Paris (51 Rue de Turbigo). Remote/hybrid policy not specified, but the team is European and product‑focused.
- **Mission‑Driven**: Directly improving quality of life in communities – a concrete, visible impact that appeals to people who want their work to matter beyond the bottom line.
