Join Team Purple.
Join IFS.
IFS is approaching €2 billion in revenue and growing more than 20% a year — because we bet earlier and harder on industrial AI than anyone in our category.
EQT, Hg, TA Associates, ADIA, and CPP Investments didn't fund incremental software growth.
They funded a thesis: the companies that build and run the physical world will run on agentic AI, and on IFS.
That thesis plays out through capital allocation decisions every quarter — where we invest to drive growth, where we pull back, how we structure the business, and how we convert scale into cash and value.
These are not abstract questions; they determine how capital is deployed across products, geographies, M they evolve continuously as the business changes.
Support capital raises and liquidity events - You will be directly involved in the analysis behind capital raises, refinancings, and liquidity events — work that sits at the centre of the CFO's agenda and is seen directly by the Board and shareholders.
Turn messy data into decision-ready insight - You will take incomplete, inconsistent, or fragmented data and impose structure on it.
That means defining assumptions, reconciling inconsistencies, and producing outputs that can be trusted by senior stakeholders.
Answer high-impact, technically complex questions - How does growth translate into cash?
Where is margin really generated?
What moves the valuation?
You will take these questions from first principles and build the analysis required to answer them rigorously.
Pressure-test the numbers - You are accountable for the integrity of the output.
That means identifying weak assumptions, stress-testing downside scenarios, and ensuring the model holds together under challenge.
Bridge modelling and decision-making - You will not only build the model — you will explain it.
This role carries substantial, direct CFO exposure: you will regularly present your own analysis to the CFO, and support discussions with senior leadership and shareholders.
Continuously improve how we model and analyse the business - We are investing heavily in AI, automation, and real-time data.
You will help redesign how modelling and analysis is done — making it faster, more scalable, and more reliable.
