Description
We're looking for a Claims Insight Lead to join our Insurance Risk team, based in our London office, to play a pivotal role in reducing motor claims costs and improving road safety through insight-led decision making.
This is a senior analytical role with real influence. You'll take ownership of our insurance claims data, bringing clarity, structure and insight to a complex and high-value area of the business. Your work will directly inform strategy, supplier management, and operational change.
You'll be responsible for:
Taking control of large, complex motor insurance claims datasets and turning them into clear, insightful management information (MI)
Identifying trends, drivers and root causes of claims cost and frequency
Producing actionable insights and recommendations that help reduce claims spend and improve outcomes
Developing and maintaining high-quality dashboards, reports and presentations for senior stakeholders
Working closely with colleagues across Insurance, Asset Risk, Operations, Finance and external suppliers to drive evidence-based decisions
Raising the standard of claims insight across the organisation, moving from descriptive reporting to predictive and diagnostic analysis
This role is not about actuarial pricing work - it's about deep claims understanding, data mining, storytelling with data and influencing change.
Qualifications
We're looking for someone who combines motor insurance expertise with strong analytical capability.
You'll likely bring:
Proven experience in motor insurance, ideally with a strong focus on claims (insurer, broker, MGA, TPA or large fleet environment)
A background in analytical roles, such as claims analytics, MI, insight or performance analysis
Advanced skills in data analysis and reporting tools (e.g. SQL, Excel, Power BI, Tableau or similar)
Strong data mining and problem-solving skills, with the ability and the curiosity to spot patterns others miss
Excellent communication skills - able to translate complex analysis into clear, compelling insights for non-technical audiences
Confidence working with senior stakeholders and influencing decisions through evidence
A pragmatic, commercially minded approach and a desire to make a measurable impact
You do not need to be an actuary, but you do need to be comfortable working with large datasets and using data to drive better outcomes.
Minimum criteria:
A relevant numerical degree and experience in producing powerful analysis in an automotive insurance environment.
Excellent PC skills including advanced Excel, and experience working with large data sets.
Who you'll be working with

Manages the financial risk around insurance in MO
