Head of Commercial Pricing

Who are we?

Look at the latest headlines and you will see something Ki insures. Think space shuttles, world tours, wind farms, and even footballers’ legs.

Ki’s mission is simple. Digitally disrupt and revolutionise a 335-year-old market. Working with Google and UCL, Ki has created a platform that uses algorithms, machine learning and large language models to give insurance brokers quotes in seconds, rather than days.

Ki is proudly the biggest global algorithmic insurance carrier. It is the fastest growing syndicate in the Lloyd's of London market, and the first ever to make $100m in profit in 3 years.

Ki’s teams have varied backgrounds and work together in an agile, cross-functional way to build the very best experience for its customers. Ki has big ambitions but needs more excellent minds to challenge the status-quo and help it reach new horizons.

Purpose of the Role

As Head of Commercial Pricing, you will play a fundamental role in the actuarial team, enhancing Ki’s commercial and strategic approach using creative actuarial insight across pricing, planning, partner relationships and strategic commercial projects. As a member of the Actuarial Leadership Team, you will work closely with the Actuarial Director to manage and develop the Pricing team.

We are looking for an experienced senior actuary to lead and shape the newly created Commercial Pricing team, part of the wider Ki Actuarial Team, formed in 2024 as part of Ki becoming a standalone entity (from Brit) within Fairfax Group.
