- Thorough understanding of insurance regulatory frameworks, including ACPR guidelines, insurance distribution rules, and legal regulations applicable to insurance contracts
- Experience developing and deploying operational compliance programs
- Fluent in English and French (written and spoken)
- You see regulatory requirements as opportunities to innovate, not just boxes to check
- You have the ability to zoom out for strategic goals while diving deep into operational details
- You're energized by the challenge of building something new rather than following established playbooks
- You're naturally curious about technology and excited about automating processes
- You can balance pragmatism with excellence, knowing when to be scrappy and when to be thorough
- Experience in an insurance company’s compliance or legal departments
- Time spent at an innovative insurtech or healthtech company
- Background in regulatory consulting focused on insurance
- Experience at regulatory authorities (ACPR, EIOPA) would be a plus
What the job involves
- We're looking for an Insurance Legal Counsel to join Alan's Corporate Unit and help us reinvent health insurance through the lens of simplicity, transparency, and member-first innovation
- This role offers a unique opportunity to shape how regulatory excellence can become a competitive advantage in the health insurance space
- At Alan, compliance and legal work is about finding innovative ways to say "yes" while ensuring the highest standards of insurance and regulatory excellence
- Protect our competitive edge and improve our offering by defining Alan’s position on key contractual terms and keeping up-to-date on latest legal developments
- Contribute directly to the success of our sales campaigns by taking part in strategic meetings with key prospects and clients
- Partner with the Sales community to design and implement our regulatory obligations (duty of advice, transparency, conflicts of interest) directly into their tools and practices
- Empower the team across Europe with practical regulatory guidance and autonomous decision frameworks
- Contribute to the quality and member-centricity of our insurance product & processes through expert contributions
- Challenge market practices to find the best ways to meet regulatory requirements and transform complex insurance regulations (such as product oversight requirements, tax requirements, collective bargaining agreements) into simple, practical solutions
- Strategically consult our regulators or challenge their approach with tact when needed
- Protect Alan’s interests in the outsourcing of critical processes and manage relationships with key partners
- Implement internal controls and reporting on key processes and support the team to mitigate operational risks
- Contribute to the development and implementation of innovative product initiatives with high regulatory stakes across our European markets, in insurance or other spaces (health, labor law, payments)
- Drive the implementation of key compliance programs (anti-money laundering, Sapin II, etc.) with a distributed and tech-enabled approach
- Develop strategies to influence regulatory evolutions and scrutiny, communicate with regulators and external auditors
- Identify our main risks and report on our compliance obligations to Alan’s board
Our take
Alan addresses health insurance for businesses and employees in Europe through a healthcare app, backed by official regulatory approval. This endorsement grants Alan the ability to offer a wide range of regulated healthcare insurance services, distinguishing it in the market.
Focused on user experience and customer satisfaction, Alan employs a people-centric approach, streamlining insurance claims and designing user-friendly health insurance products. While competitors like Babylon and Ada Health exist, Alan's primary focus on health insurance sets it apart.
Despite macroeconomic challenges prompting a readjustment of goals, Alan achieved significant revenue growth in 2023, driven by expanding its clientele and leveraging AI tools for enhanced productivity. With a robust cash revenue, Alan plans to sustain growth, consolidate its position in the existing markets, and explore expansion into new territories, positioning itself for potential future IPO.
