Securing 20+ actuarial, underwriting and technology specialists to drive global growth
The Client
A rapidly scaling and innovative AI-native global insurtech company serving the specialty insurance market. The client’s automated portfolio monitoring platform supports better commercial decisions while increasing efficiency and driving superior returns for its partners.
The Challenge
The client was undergoing a rapid growth cycle as it continued expansion in the US market and pursued European expansion ambitions. This brought the need for high-caliber actuarial, underwriting, and technology expertise.
The client’s high standards meant that candidates needed to be product-led and excellent presenters and communicators, capable of driving adoption of its AI-native platform.
The Solution
Initially, Partner and Associate Director Wise Stine sourced actuarial talent across our embedded network of specialists, with additional support from our underwriting team. The relationship of trust developed led to Senior Principal in Data & AI Shakara Rose being brought on to build out the technology team.
Solutions provided extended beyond existing vacancy support, with our specialists recommending individuals matching the client’s ideal candidate profiles. This enabled us to identify and recommend individuals in advance of new opportunities arising, proactively anticipating the client's future needs.
The Outcome
Over the course of this long-term partnership, Eames Consulting has become a trusted partner in securing scarce, specialist capability.
Over twenty specialists have been placed to date across actuarial, underwriting and technology teams, with a 100% placement success ratio for roles within our specialisms and 75% retention across all open hires.
The client’s satisfaction with the quality of expertise delivered (with candidates achieving promotion to senior levels including Global Head) has strengthened the relationship further, with Eames Consulting continuing to support the client’s expansion into the European market.
The Future
The strength of the relationship has led to further retainer agreements which continue to secure essential capability and support the client's global growth objectives.
