Why Open?

Open is on a mission to make it easy for everyone to get the most from their insurance. Insurance is one of the world’s least digitally mature industries – for years it’s remained confusing, paper-based and heavily intermediated.

  • Grow fast with clear career progression, incredible mentors, and a culture built on learning and curiosity.
  • Have a voice – actually have a say in the direction of the company! We value transparency in our business, we value your opinions, and we pride ourselves on effective communication across the business.
  • Company Parental leave to support you and your family
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – 24/7 support for our employees and their families.
  • Generous personal development and work-from-home allowances.
