Insurance Product Manager / Underwriter (P&C)
Key Skills
Job Description
Most insurance product roles ask you to perfect one product in one market. This one asks you to build Europe’s SME insurance products: decide what we cover and who we insure, negotiate it with our carriers and get it live, market after market. Deep in the wording. Fast in the build. About Insify Insurance for entrepreneurs is still built the old way: one market at a time, wordings nobody reads, and cover that leaves out the very businesses that need it most. We're doing it differently. Insify is a high-growth scale-up backed by €43M in total funding from world-class investors like Accel, Munich Re Ventures, and Formula 1 champion Nico Rosberg. In five years, we've expanded from the Netherlands into France, Germany and Ireland, and we're just getting started. Our mission: become the European leader in AI-powered SME insurance. We aren't just building a company; we're leading a revolution. Our culture is intense, high-stakes, and mission-driven. We hire smart, ambitious "owners" who possess a relentless drive to win. This is an environment for those who thrive on challenges, value intellectual honesty, and share our mindset of becoming a global category leader. Our founding team consists of seasoned entrepreneurs who have previously built iconic businesses like HelloFresh, Bloomon, and SumUp. We bring that same bias for speed, scale, and high standards to one of the most structurally broken experiences in financial services. Together, we combine that deep fintech and e-commerce expertise with cutting-edge AI to stay ahead of the curve. What You’ll Own In Your First Year You won’t inherit a finished product shelf. You’ll build the engine that fills it. Build the product engine. Turn how we benchmark a market into a system: compare cover, limits and exclusions across local players, our Dutch home product and our other markets, so every new product starts from facts, not gut feeling Make the call on cover. Decide what we cover, what we don’t and who we insure, and turn it into a proposal. The tools do the comparison; the judgment is yours Get it signed. Take the proposal to our risk carriers and negotiate it. You know what to push on, what to let go and which clause will set off six red flags Get it live. Adapt our wordings to each new market, run the legal review and launch. Less writing from scratch, more making one strong product fit the next market. Then track loss ratios, competition and customer feedback, and sharpen it Build what doesn’t exist yet. In the markets where we double down, own custom products from the insurance side, including cover for the trades and businesses others decline Who You Are You’re an insurance expert first and a builder second, but a real one. You have 5+ years hands-on in commercial P&C (Property & Casualty) at an insurer, MGA, (re)insurer or specialist broker, across underwriting, product and wordings, ideally for SMEs You know what is covered, what isn’t and what should be. Hand you a wording from a market you’ve never worked in and you’ll spot the gaps within minutes You’ve worked across more than one line, product or market, and you can apply what you know to a market you’ve never seen You’ve sat at the table with insurers or capacity providers and know where the red lines are You’d rather fix insurance than complain about it. Maybe you already tried: at an insurtech, an MGA, your own startup, or on the carrier side building products with insurtechs You think like the customer: plain questions, fair cover, and no excluding everything just to be safe You’re at home in Excel and data, and curious about what automation and LLMs can take off your plate. You don’t need to code; our product and tech teams build the digital journey with you You work fluently in English; German, French or Dutch is a big plus What We Offer Real ownership. You decide what we cover and work directly with the MT, close to where decisions get made Range. More products and markets in a year than most people see in a decade at an incumbent A share in what we build. Equity, so you share in the value you build A team that cares.
