The posting

Who are we?👋

Look at the latest headlines and you will see something Ki insures. Think space shuttles, world tours, wind farms, and even footballers’ legs.

Ki’s mission is simple. Digitally disrupt and revolutionise a 335-year-old market. Working with Google and UCL, Ki has created a platform that uses algorithms, machine learning and large language models to give insurance brokers quotes in seconds, rather than days.

Ki is proudly the biggest global algorithmic insurance carrier. It is the fastest growing syndicate in the Lloyd's of London market, and the first ever to make $100m in profit in 3 years.

Ki’s teams have varied backgrounds and work together in an agile, cross-functional way to build the very best experience for its customers. Ki has big ambitions but needs more excellent minds to challenge the status-quo and help it reach new horizons.

Where you come in?

As our new Algorithmic Pricing Actuary, you'll join our Algorithmic Underwriting team at the exciting intersection of underwriting and algorithm development. You'll help us build best-practice, scalable digital risk- and portfolio-pricing capabilities, blending actuarial science and machine learning to support line size generation.

We'll look to you to ensure our pricing models meet commercial and regulatory requirements, delivering seamless point-of-quote solutions for brokers on our platform. Working within a multi-disciplinary, commercially focused team, you'll bridge deep specialty insurance expertise with advanced product development and scalable analysis. Together, we'll continually innovate and evolve our digital pricing capabilities, securing Ki's long-term position as the pioneer of digital specialty insurance.

  • Design, build and maintain pricing model monitoring capabilities and regular monitoring of core pricing metrics.
  • Continuously evolve Ki’s pricing models by exploring new data sources and model improvements, and informing the Ki algorithm product roadmap.
  • Input into validation of Machine Learning model development and other risk assessment considerations.
  • Contribute directly to the development of automated validation and stress testing capabilities for Ki’s pricing models
  • Ensure that processes and best practices are adhered to within the Product process - Exploring new modelling approaches to improve pricing sophistication
  • Commercially aligned to a division to support ongoing pricing capability developments
  • Support on ad-hoc algorithmic underwriting projects when required.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
