DLG is evolving. Across every facet of our business, our teams are embracing new opportunities and putting customers at the heart of everything they do. By joining them, you’ll have the opportunity to not just be recognised for your skills but encouraged to build upon them and empowered to do your absolute best.

Darwin is a tech-led motor insurance business built by a small, entrepreneurial team with big ambitions. As part of the Direct Line (now within the Aviva family), we combine the agility and innovation of a startup with the scale, support, and stability of a major insurer.

Our customers love what we do — and it shows, with a Trustpilot rating of 4.7 out of 5.

This role sits at the heart of Darwin’s Pricing & Underwriting team, where you’ll help shape the future of insurance pricing with cutting-edge tools and a modern approach.

We’ve built the kind of pricing infrastructure every pricing professional aspires to work with:

• High-quality, accessible data

• A fast, flexible rating algorithm — deploy changes in hours

• Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) that enable fast, transparent, and controlled model development

• An operating model that gives complete autonomy to pricing professionals to dream up an idea and get it live

If you're passionate about using data, tech, and creativity to push the boundaries of insurance pricing, we’d love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing:

This is a rare opportunity to take full end-to-end ownership of customer pricing—across both risk and margin—working alongside a small, expert team of pricing and underwriting professionals.

The operating model gives complete autonomy to pricing professionals to dream up an idea and get it live.

The primary objective of this role is to increase profitability and drive business growth, whilst ensuring excellent outcomes for our customer.

Examples of things you would be doing to achieve the objective set out above:

• Identify pricing opportunities across customer segments and implement strategies to optimize profitability and market competitiveness.

• Drive innovation in pricing by developing and integrating new features, tools, and models to increase pricing sophistication.

• Monitor claims performance to ensure pricing remains accurately calibrated, responsive to inflation, and aligned with emerging trends.

• Build efficient, automated processes to enhance operational effectiveness and empower a high-performing, data-driven pricing team.

Our hybrid model offers a 'best of both worlds' approach. When you'll be in the office depends on your role and team, but colleagues spend at least 2 days a week in the office

What you'll need:

• Commercially driven mindset – you're motivated by delivering tangible business value through smart, data-led decisions.

• Technical proficiency – skilled in tools such as Python, SQL, Tableau, or similar, with the ability to extract insights from complex datasets.

• Pricing curiosity – a strong grasp of (or ambition to master) end-to-end insurance pricing, from data to deployment.

• Quantitative mindset – a solid foundation in statistics and actuarial principles, with the ability to apply them to real-world pricing challenges, including assessing second- and third-order effects to drive smarter, more sustainable decisions.

• Effective communicator – confident presenting ideas and insights to senior stakeholders across the business.

• Insurance industry knowledge – solid understanding of general insurance pricing, ideally with experience in motor insurance.

• Bias for action – a natural problem-solver who can break down complex ideas into clear, actionable steps, always keeping focus on delivering real, measurable outcomes.
