Company mission
Cytora's mission is to transform insurance by helping insurers generate fairer premiums and enabling society at large to transfer risk in new and seamless ways.
Role
Who you are
- Knowledge of commercial / commercial property Insurance market (eg from working as a business analyst/change delivery in a large insurer)
- Strong commercial awareness and drive to deliver the most business value for our customers
- Desire to work in an agile environment
- Drive for continuous improvement
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to talk to colleagues about your work in a way that educates and inspires
What the job involves
- Analysing technical underwriting guides and question sets to determine important data points and identify appetite and prioritise rules
- Engaging with Underwriting team leader and underwriters to create process workflows, both before and after Cytora
- Supporting delivery team with refinement of requirements
- Supporting deployment of Cytora to insurers, including training, operational transformation support and process efficiency improvements
- Identifying benefits measures and implementing methods to baseline and measure ongoing benefits
Our take
Insurance is vital to the economy, giving businesses the confidence to realise their ambitions in the face of uncertainty, but the underlying systems that insurance is built on are broken. Cytora is creating new foundations for insurance by providing insurers with the building blocks they need to deliver efficient, accurate underwriting and seamless customer experiences.
Cytora's platform enables risk submissions to be digitised, consistently evaluated using internal and external data sources and automatically processed for underwriting decision making. This means that risks can be digitally processed, maximising automation levels and delivering enhanced control over risk selection.
Cytora recently partnered with global specialist insurer Beazley, which follows a series of recent milestones for Cytora, including partnerships with Allianz, Markel and Ecclesiastical. The company is eyeing the US for its next expansion strategy.
