Actuary (Profitability, Remote from EMEA)

Who are we?

Wakam is a European B2B2C insurer that designs white label insurance products for its partners (e-retailers, brokers and fintechs/insurtechs, etc.). Our insurance products are embedded in the products or services offered to the end-customer.

We operate in 32 European countries with the majority of our turnover generated outside France. We provide most of our products through API and host white label insurance solutions via our Play&Plug technology platform. Since March 2021, we are a Mission-driven company. We defined 9 concrete commitments to illustrate this mission, such as writing our insurance contracts in plain language.

We also create insurance products at cost for associations. Our culture? Free to impact. A culture where everything is possible, where all ideas are taken into consideration, where everyone has an impact! Hungry for freedom? Thirsty for autonomy? If you are curious, then the Wakam adventure might be made for you!
