About the role

We’re looking for a Head of Insurance to own our group insurance demand end to end: building the strategy, running the placement cycle, and turning insurance into a commercial enabler across ride-hailing, delivery, micromobility, and financial services.

You’ll own all group insurance demand, with a mandate to build and run, not coordinate. You’ll design our insurance strategy, lead the placement cycle, evaluate captive structures, and embed insurance into the products our drivers, couriers, and business customers actually use.

You’ll report into the Director of Procurement and serve as the senior voice on insurance for our C-suite, General Counsel, and Vertical leadership, including chairing the insurance seat on our risk committee. You’ll partner closely with Vertical GMs, Product, Legal, and Finance across a genuinely global remit.

Main tasks and responsibilities

• Own and refresh the group insurance strategy across motor/fleet, platform liability, cyber, D&O, property, cargo, and scheme/affinity products.
• Lead the annual placement cycle with brokers, driving competitive tension, consolidating where it helps, and optimising terms and premium efficiency.
• Build in-house capability and data infrastructure (exposure, claims, loss triangulation) to reduce reliance on external advisors, and develop the business case for captive structures or alternative risk financing where appropriate.
• Partner with Vertical GMs and Product to turn insurance into a commercial enabler, including scheme products, B2B offerings, and regulatory coverage that supports product launches.
• Ensure compliance across 50+ markets, with particular rigour across EU, UK, and Sub-Saharan Africa, and keep Bolt aligned with DORA and EBA outsourcing obligations.
• Serve as the senior voice on insurance for the C-suite, General Counsel, and Vertical leadership, and chair the insurance seat on the risk committee.

About you

• Proven track record leading an insurance function in a global, multi-market business, ideally in platform, fintech, or high-growth tech.
• Deep technical command across motor/fleet, platform liability, cyber, D&O, and scheme/affinity insurance.
• Strong experience owning large, complex placements, including broker management, underwriter negotiation, and programme restructuring.
• Commercial fluency: able to build the P&L case for an insurance decision, not just the coverage case.
• Regulatory literacy across EU/UK and emerging-market insurance frameworks, with the presence to advise the C-suite directly without routing every decision through external counsel.
• Experience with captive or fronting structures, DORA/EBA outsourcing rules in a regulated financial services context, or hands-on transformation of an insurance or risk function are a plus.

Why you’ll love it here:

• Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.
• Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as we succeeds, so do you.
• Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.
• Celebrate 5 years with a 1-month paid sabbatical to recharge.
• Connect with colleagues at annual company events and smaller team gatherings.
• Balance flexibility and in-person collaboration with our hybrid model, including at least 12 monthly in-office days.
