About the Team

At Swiss Re we embarked on a journey to become a true Tech and Data driven company. 'Solutions' is a central pillar of the reinsurance strategy, critical both to development of our core activities as well as developing new revenue streams for Swiss Re. There is an opportunity to use our risk knowledge and capital to create new shareholder value for us through Solutions, which should lead to valuation uplift.

Solutions are services delivered to clients that lead to new, more, or better business profit generation for the company that would not happen through core or transaction business. These earnings will be manifested primarily through a fee income model. Our ambition is to move to the next level in terms of scale and integrity, fully deploying Swiss Re’s risk knowledge to a wider group of clients.

A great opportunity to join our high-performing global IT team focused on developing and launching innovative Data Analytics solutions using the state-of-the-art data analytics platform that enables big data processing, effective monitoring and steering of business.

You can look forward to extra rewards and benefits including:
- Attractive performance-based bonus
- Ultra flexible working time in hybrid setup, allowing you to work also from home
- Modern office spaces in attractive location
- 5 additional days of holiday
- Lunch allowance fully paid by Swiss Re
- Referral bonus
- Pension & risk insurance contribution
- Sick days and sick leave support

Our aim is to live visible and invisible diversity – diversity of age, race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, physical abilities, personalities and experiences – at all levels and in all functions and regions. We also collaborate in a flexible working environment, providing you with a compelling degree of autonomy to decide how, when and where to carry out your tasks.
