As the first Portfolio Manager, you will own the performance of an insurance book end-to-end. You will leverage AI-native tools to monitor loss ratios, identify underperforming segments, and lead reinsurance discussions. This is a high-impact opportunity to build the portfolio management function from scratch at a rapidly scaling London startup.
Portfolio Manager at Corgi
Are you ready to build the portfolio management function from scratch at a $108M YC-backed startup? We are looking for a technical, data-driven Portfolio Manager to join our London-based team and own the P&L for our AI-native insurance book. You'll bypass legacy bureaucracy to make real-time decisions on underwriting, pricing, and reinsurance. If you have 2-5 years of experience at a traditional carrier and thrive in high-conviction environments, this is your chance to shape the future of insurance. This role offers meaningful equity and the opportunity to scale with an elite team rewriting the industry rules.
