Head of Challenger Pricing (Telematics)
Hybrid, with a minimum of one day per week at one of our main sites in Bexhill, Leicester or London
We’re a fast-growing digital insurer serving more than four million customers, with ambitious plans for the UK market and significant investment across our insurance and telematics businesses, underpinned by market-leading pricing and data capability.
Joining a small, focused innovation team, you’ll challenge how we price risk by exploring new methodologies, segmentation approaches and data sources that can outperform our existing strategy.
With best-in-class data, tools and implementation capability, you’ll have the freedom to test bold ideas and the support to scale successful innovations across the business.
Role overview
Challenge and outperform our existing motor pricing strategy by developing new pricing methodologies, sharper risk segmentation and innovative uses of data—including telematics and behavioural insight—to improve risk selection and commercial performance.
Success will be measured by your ability to turn pricing innovation into measurable value. You’ll identify, test and prove challenger approaches that improve pricing sophistication, create new risk signals and unlock the potential of telematics and alternative data alongside our established rating capabilities.
Working through our established pricing organisation, you’ll partner with Pricing, Data and Analytics teams to move successful concepts from experimentation into live pricing. Your challenge is simple: outperform our current approach from the inside and strengthen how Hastings prices risk at scale.
