We’re a startup with an ambitious goal - to bring big data to a very traditional industry - insurance. With teams in London and Delhi, we’re passionate about powering the future of insurance.
We’re data scientists, innovators, entrepreneurs, designers, developers, and insurance specialists. We’re also guitarists, rally drivers, athletes, art collectors and investors. We’re an astonishingly diverse bunch with shared values and this suits the way we work.
We listen to our customers and stakeholders to understand their business inside and out, and develop products or solutions that solve their problems.
We set clear expectations and communicate directly and respectfully with each other, even if it’s a difficult conversation. Trust and mutual respect is demonstrated by taking the time to understand one another and our roles.
We’re doing something that’s never been done before and that means it won’t always be perfect. Together we celebrate and learn from our mistakes.
These principles guide the Concirrus way of life. We believe in teamwork measured by deeds rather than seniority, and a culture that is open and inclusive.
