Simply Business distinguishes itself through its focus on small businesses, innovative digital products, and a culture that blends insurance expertise with tech-forward thinking. Our PMs play a crucial role in creating products that simplify complex insurance processes for entrepreneurs.
-
While prior insurance experience is valuable, it's not always mandatory. We value candidates who demonstrate strong product sense, data-driven decision-making, and the ability to quickly learn and navigate the insurance landscape. A keen interest in insurtech and a track record of simplifying complex products are often more important.
-
Simply Business offers significant growth opportunities for PMs. As we expand globally and introduce new product lines, PMs can advance to senior roles, lead larger teams, and even transition into executive positions overseeing entire product portfolios or entering new markets.
-
We foster a culture of continuous innovation, encouraging PMs to experiment with new ideas while maintaining a strong focus on customer needs and regulatory compliance. Our innovation process often involves rapid prototyping, A/B testing, and close collaboration with small business owners to ensure our products truly meet their needs.
-
While we don't expect PMs to be technical experts, a solid understanding of data analysis, basic coding concepts, and familiarity with insurtech platforms is highly valued. The ability to work effectively with engineering teams and translate business requirements into technical specifications is crucial.
