Who we are?
Silverfin is a cutting-edge cloud software solution built by accountants, for accountants.
Founded in 2013, Silverfin was created to solve the frustrations of manual, error-prone processes in analysing financial data and compliance. From day one, we’ve been a cloud-first platform with an open API architecture, leveraging structured data to transform how accountants work.
Our mission is simple: to enhance and support the accountancy profession through AI and automation, ensuring accountants remain relevant and respected in the future of finance.
In 2023, Silverfin became part of the Visma Group, joining one of Europe’s leading providers of cloud software. This partnership strengthens our ability to innovate and expand our impact within the accountancy industry.
Today, Silverfin is trusted by over 1000+ firms across 19 countries. Our clients include all of the Big 4 accounting firms, as well as leading global networks like BDO, PKF, Baker Tilly, Grant Thornton, and Moore.
Headquartered in Ghent, with offices in London, Luxembourg, Gouda (NL), and a 2nd office in South of Belgium (Mont-Saint-Guibert), we’re a team of over 200 people - including a diverse remote engineering team working across multiple time zones - all working together to drive innovation in accounting.
That mission is still standing strong, and we’ve made a bet on where the work is heading. An accountant won’t click through screens to fill in data and assemble an answer. They’ll expect it to be done already or to be able to just ask for it. “I’m meeting this client tomorrow, help me prepare.” “If the current numbers hold to year-end, how much should they prepay next quarter? Draft them the message.” “What’s the most this business can pay out in dividends? Prepare the distribution tests for me to discuss with the customer.”.
Everyone will have agents that attempt to get those answers. The scarce thing (and the bet) is whether the answer is one an accountant can put their name under. Our compliance engine is what makes it so. While agents play a big role in getting to compliance deliverables, there’s a deterministic, controlled and auditable core.
Turning that into insights into the hands of the accountant and their clients is your team’s mission.
The territory: every touchpoint where an accounting firm’s work reaches its client: data visualisation, exports, the client conversations, the thread between meetings, and, increasingly, the agents on top of all of it. A lot of what worked well yesterday needs to be questioned. You own the experience of the end client on the other side of those moments: the person our customer serves.
What you’re walking into: there is a foundation to build on but there’s plenty of opportunities remaining to be discovered and delivered on. Our customers want us to keep focus on this, so you’ll need to iterate and keep the pace high, while keeping the outcome in the center of the decisions you make.
The ground under this role will evolve quickly. The agentic shift means the territory you own today won’t be the territory next year. Some of what you build will be questioned, merged, or reinvented. If you need a stable lane to do your best work, this will frustrate you. If redrawing the map is a part you enjoy, you’ll thrive.
You don’t need to have been a PM before. If you’ve spent years across the table from business owners and found yourself redesigning the workflow instead of just running it: questioning why the work is done this way, prototyping your own fixes, dragging your firm toward better tools… that instinct is what we’re hiring. We’ll teach you the craft: you’ll work daily with a strong product designer, learn continuous discovery inside a team that already practices it, get coaching from product leadership, and have budget for training. What we can’t teach is the judgment that comes from sitting with real clients. That’s the part you bring.
You’re AI-native in your own work. You reach for AI by default: to draft, to analyse, to prototype; and because the capabilities keeps moving, you keep re-testing where it is. What it couldn’t do last quarter it might do now: you’re the person who notices quickly and changes their opinion.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
