Description
Welcome to Hastings Direct
We’re a digital insurance provider with ambitious plans to become the best and biggest in the UK market. We’ve made huge investments in our pricing and data capabilities over the past few years, along with nurturing our 4Cs culture.
We provide insurance for over four million customers, but we know there’s even bigger opportunity out there – our Pricing, Data and Analytics community value curiosity, collaboration and constructive challenge.
We are always looking for new ideas and diverse perspectives to question established thinking and drive meaningful change. Great pricing is built on trust, innovation and precision, so our aim is to ensure customers receive a fair and accurate price based on their individual risk, supporting fair outcomes, while delivering sustainable and profitable growth for our company.
Pricing is more than just a number – it’s a strategic capability. At the heart of Hastings is deep risk insight – continually improving how we assess, segment and price risk through data and analytics.
Role Overview
We are seeking an experienced Product Owner to lead the coordination of changes to our Underwriting rating algorithms. Working in a dynamic environment where many multiples of rating changes are released each week, the Rating Change Product Owner will safeguard the design integrity of the rating logic and drive the fasted-paced release of rating changes to deliver commercial value.
Operating as the bridge between Underwriting and Risk Pricing teams, Pricing Engineering, Release Management and Testing, they will need a strong planning and prioritisation discipline, excellent stakeholder leadership and technical fluency to ensure rating updates are delivered with pace, control and accuracy.
