Position summary

The Business Enablement department centralizes support functions and strengthens the role of the key front office support functions, giving these the attention they deserve. It allows for more centralized steering and coordination, allowing the solution teams to focus more on their core activities. The Business Enablement department comprises three teams: CoE IESG, CoE KYC, and Fund Management.

Role Purpose

The Director Business Enablement leads the centralized Business Enablement department, ensuring consistent, scalable, and high-quality support across the CIO domain. The role is responsible for translating strategy into execution, enabling organizational growth, developing new funds and business capabilities, and establishing the governance, reporting, and operating models required to support Invest International's future ambitions. Given the highly strategic nature of the role, the Director works in close collaboration with the CIO and the CIO Management Team (CIO MT).

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Regulatory & Impact Leadership

  • Lead the strategic development of Invest International's regulatory, ESG, impact, and compliance frameworks, ensuring alignment with organizational objectives and external developments.
  • Act as Invest International's principal strategic advisor on regulatory, policy, ESG, impact, KYC, and AML matters, translating external developments into organizational priorities.
  • Anticipate changes in regulation, government policy, market dynamics, client needs, and international sustainability agendas, and translate these into strategic recommendations.
  • Drive the development of new instruments, solutions, and frameworks that support proactive sector strategies and may require changes to government policies or implementation mechanisms.
  • Build and maintain strategic relationships with BuZa, BHO, regulators, policymakers, and sector partners to influence and shape enabling frameworks.
  • Provide strategic leadership to sector and investment teams, focusing on long-term policy, regulatory, and impact considerations rather than operational execution.

Business Enablement Leadership

  • Lead and develop the Business Enablement department and its three teams.
  • Ensure scalable operating models, governance structures, processes, and capabilities that prepare Invest International for future growth and increasing portfolio complexity.
  • Drive organizational readiness for expansion through the professionalization of business support functions, data capabilities, reporting frameworks, and control mechanisms.
  • Ensure consistent standards, processes, and tools across business and support functions.
  • Strengthen collaboration between support teams and sector and solution teams.
  • Oversee fund management processes, mandate checks, MoFA reporting, and portfolio oversight.
  • Ensure effective implementation and quality assurance of ESG, KYC, AML, and impact policies through the respective Centres of Excellence.
  • Oversee policy governance and compliance across the business.
  • Drive continuous improvement and efficiency in support processes.
  • Represent Business Enablement in CIO governance and decision-making forums.
  • Act as the primary liaison with Legal, Compliance, Risk or CFRO Domain.

Competencies

  • Strong leadership and organizational development.
  • Expertise in operational excellence and process management, data and reporting.
  • Ability to manage multidisciplinary specialist teams.
  • Strong governance and compliance mindset.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Exceptional stakeholder engagement and influencing skills, with a proven ability to navigate complex internal and external stakeholder environments and align diverse interests toward common objectives.
  • Strategic thinking and problem-solving
  • Ability to drive standardization and quality assurance.

Education & Experience

  • Academic Background: Master’s degree in Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Law, or a related field.
  • Professional Experience: 10+ years of professional experience within banking, asset management, or international development finance, with a strong track record in a strategic senior management or leadership capacity.
  • Domain Expertise: Proven experience managing complex operational support functions, specifically within fund management, risk, or compliance frameworks.
  • Multidisciplinary Leadership: Demonstrated success in leading and scaling multidisciplinary, highly specialized teams (ideally across ESG, KYC, or portfolio operations).

Knowledge & Technical Skills

  • Regulatory & Compliance Frameworks: Deep operational understanding of Know Your Customer (KYC/AML) protocols, International ESG standards, and impact frameworks.
  • Governance & Reporting: Experience with strict institutional governance, mandate compliance checks, and formal stakeholder reporting (experience with MoFA or public-sector funding requirements is a distinct advantage).
  • Operational Excellence: Strong background in change management, process optimization (e.g., Lean/Six Sigma principles), and implementing data-driven reporting systems.

Interpersonal & Cultural Fit

  • Stakeholder Management: Exceptional capability to act as a strategic liaison between front-office solution teams and support units like Finance & Risk.
  • Communication: Fluency in English (both written and spoken) is required; proficiency in Dutch is highly advantageous given the internal and external stakeholder landscape.
  • Change Resilience: A proactive mindset suited for a newly created department—comfortable navigating ambiguity, setting up new structures, and driving institutional professionalization.
  • Values & Culture: Demonstrates behaviours aligned with Invest International's values: o Clear is kind: communicates with clarity and care. o Dare to go beyond: focuses energy on what matters most and seeks opportunities to create greater impact. o Trust each other to deliver: sets clear expectations and empowers others to take ownership and deliver results. o Build bridges: collaborates openly and builds strong relationships across teams and with external partners.

What we offer

  • Level 19, with a gross monthly salary ranging from €9,472 to €11,840, excluding holiday allowance and a 13th-month payment, based on a 40-hour workweek.
  • A 12-month contract with the possibility of extension.
  • A contribution-free pension plan.
  • A first-class public transport business card, work laptop and phone, and a contribution towards your home office.
  • Hybrid working, with a 60% office / 40% home-working split.
  • Access to an in-house gym for a reduced contribution.
  • An innovative and dynamic working environment.
