Senior Financial Accountant IFRS17 Operations

Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Financial Accountant - IFRS 17 (Operations)

Who are we?

Ki is the biggest global insurance tech company you’ve never heard of, unless you’ve been looking to insure a satellite, wind farm or music festival recently.

Having written over $877m in gross written premium in 2023, we’ve achieved significant growth since our beginnings in 2021. Our investors were excited about the fact we were revolutionising the way a 333 year-old industry was working. There are hardly any industries left that are mainly paper based, but the specialty insurance market is one. Together with partners at Google and UCL we developed Ki and created a platform that helps insurance brokers place risk in a fast and frictionless way. We’re continuing to lead the charge on the digitisation of this market and we need more excellent minds to work with us to realise this goal and create more opportunities.


The day to day

This role is part of the Ki Financial Operations and Ledgers team and is responsible for the production of Ki’s quarterly & annual IFRS 17 results and submission to the Group alongside wider stakeholders. The team are focussed on the production of Ki’s numbers, the undertaking of finance operations and the posting of entries to ledger, specifically in relation to IFRS 17. Ki Finance is a new team, and this role will be involved in embedding all the necessary processes to ensure the team meets its deliverables. At times this will mean getting involved in other areas of Finance.
