Marketing Intern

Who are we?
‍
We’re a small team of experienced tech, insurance and Ops people, based in Paris, London and Berlin, at the early stage of our adventure! We’re well funded too! 😉 We believe in open, transparent teams, filled with quality people.

‍

The serious business bit…
‍
We’re an insurance company like no other. We bring the often complicated, stuffy world of insurance into the 21st century with our cutting edge technology; disrupting the way traditional financial services are distributed to today’s SMEs. 

1 in 4 SME bankruptcies are caused by cash flow problems, from clients not paying invoices. Almost none of these SMEs know this risk can be insured, and their business saved. Complex insurance products are out of reach from the companies who would benefit the most from them. We want to solve this, help businesses stay alive and grow. We know this is a massive untapped market and aspire to address it.

You will gain exposure to a variety of tasks, and we can give you as much opportunity and responsibility as you’re ready for.  You will be supporting the team with, but not limited to, the following:

• Managing inbound requests for press, partnerships, and informational purposes
• Identifying and attending trade conferences
• Supporting with ad hoc projects as needed (may include research/reporting on findings, building profiles, data aggregation/analysis, etc.)

Our goal is both to support your growth and development while empowering you for a successful start to your career.

What’s in it for you…

Your opinion and feedback will be heard and valued and you’ll feel a part of a very special family.
