Greater Paris Metropolitan Region, FR Descartes Underwriting Temps plein

ABOUT DESCARTES UNDERWRITING


Descartes was born out of the conviction that the ever-increasing complexity of risks faced by corporations, governments and vulnerable communities calls for a renewed approach in insurance. Our team brings together industry veterans from the most renowned institutions (AXA, SCOR, Swiss Re, Marsh, Aon, ) and scientists on top of their field to bring underwriting excellence. After 5 years of existence, Descartes has secured a leading position in parametric insurance for weather and climate-related risks utilizing machine learning, real-time monitoring from satellite imagery & IoT. After a successful Series B raise of $120M USD, we launched Descartes Insurance, a 'full stack' insurer licensed to underwrite risk by the French regulator ACPR. With a growing corporate client base (350+ and counting), our diverse team is headquartered in Paris and operates out of our 13 global offices in North America, Europe, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan. Descartes is trusted by a panel of A-rated (re)insurers to carry out its activities.




ABOUT YOUR ROLE


Descartes' business is by essence mostly international with 95% of premium generated by our teams abroad and risks in more than 40 countries. Enabling a strategic design and efficient roll-out of our international policy set-ups is essential to Descartes’ growth and central to our development.
