Chief of Staff to the CEO

At Shine , we are redefining how entrepreneurs—freelancers, self-employed professionals, and SMEs—manage their banking and administrative tasks. Through seamless tools and innovative banking solutions, we help them focus on what matters most: growing their businesses.

Our vision is to become the best friend of every small entrepreneur across Europe. 💚

Over the years, Shine (formerly known as Ageras) has grown through the merging of top European FinTechs like Shine (🇫🇷) , Kontist (🇩🇪) , and Tellow (🇳🇱) . Today, we’re a team of nearly 500 people, including 150 talented engineers, working together from Paris, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, and Berlin.
