UX/UI Designer

About our team

We are a diverse and dynamic team of experienced and motivated individuals who are passionate about solving complex ideas through simple designs.

Our Design Team is organized around products – and you will be too. Instead of time-boxed projects, we are responsible for experience design of a landscape of products at various stages of their lifecycle.

Our guiding principles are collaboration, pragmatism and agility. With this, we seek to accomplish good acceptance and adoption, efficiency gains, and last but not the least – happy users!

We are looking for an UX/UI Designer with a proven track record, responsible for driving the end-to-end design process, from Discovery to Delivery. Given our industry, we need a creative mind not afraid to tackle more technical or analytical solutions – like insurance!

Our business is reinsurance, and our aim is to make the reinsurance product experience intuitive and user-friendly, leveraging best-in-class UX patterns and approaches. Together, we will attract and retain customers around the Globe and support them to address some of the World’s most urgent challenges such as climate change or closing the protection gap.
