The role

The Chief of Staff acts as the right hand to the CEO and the CCO, also working closely with the Chief Insurance Officer (CIO), and provides the structure, rigor, and follow-through that keeps the leadership agenda moving. This is a high-visibility role at the center of the organization, combining governance and meeting management with hands-on ownership of strategic growth and AI initiatives. You will work directly with the most senior people in the business, including Group Management Board, as well as with external partners on strategic initiatives. The role suits someone who thrives on variety, can move fluidly between structured governance work and open-ended strategic problems, and wants outsized exposure early in their career.
