About the Role
We have a variety of join dates available for this role, and can offer both ASAP start dates and start dates up to February 2027 - but are not currently recruiting those graduating in 2027.
At Acturis, innovation isn't just part of our culture - it's in our DNA. Our story began in 2000 in the garage of our co-founder, Theo Duchen, who, alongside fellow former McKinsey partner David McDonald, set out to reinvent insurance technology. What started as a bold start-up idea has grown into a global SaaS leader trusted by the industry. Today, over 100,000 users across 40+ countries rely on the Acturis platform. By working closely with brokers, insurers, and MGAs, we continue to shape the market and drive new standards across both personal and commercial lines.

With over 90% of our hires coming from graduate backgrounds, this is a place built for early-career talent to thrive. And as an EcoVadis Committed-rated organisation, we focus on creating long-term value by operating in a sustainable and responsible way.
