Onze organisatie
Ageas is a listed international insurance Group with a heritage spanning close to 200 years. We offer Retail and Business customers Life and Non-Life insurance products, and we are also engaged in reinsurance activities.
Our customers are at the heart of our business, and our products and services are designed to anticipate, manage, and cover their risks through a wide range of solutions designed for their needs, both today and in the future.
We are one of Europe's larger insurance companies and we are also well represented in Asia. In total, Ageas is on the ground in 14 countries (Belgium, the UK, France, Portugal, Turkey, China, Malaysia, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Singapore, and the Philippines) through a combination of wholly owned subsidiaries and long-term partnerships with strong financial institutions and key distributors.
Ageas ranks among the market leaders in the countries in which it operates. Every day, more than 44,000 skilled and committed employees are at the service of nearly 45 million customers. Our Group has at its foundation a set of core values - Care, Dare, Deliver, and Share – representing who we are and how we work. As a “Supporter of your life” we seek to create social and economic value for our customers, employees, partners, investors, and society at large.
Ageas has been re-certified as Top Employer in 2023.
As part of our Impact24 strategy, next to strengthening and growing our Core business further, Ageas wants to pursue new opportunities for Growth, amongst others by entering into partnerships with Digital platforms.
We are now looking for a Growth Hacker to help grow our Digital Platforms’ business alongside the Strategy / Business Development Lead, Product & Proposition Development Lead and Tech Dev Lead.
“Do you want insurance with that?” We are building an Insurance as a Platform with API enabling digital platforms to distribute insurance seamlessly embedded in the customer’s digital journey with their trusted brand. Think 'One-Click Insurance' and being able to present customers with a “do you want insurance with that?” button when they open a bank account, apply for a loan or credit card, buy a smartphone, book a trip or take out a weekly gym pass.
In addition to insurance embedded in digital journeys, some of our digital platform partners are also interested in selling insurance on a stand alone basis end-to-end online (e.g. in-app but not in-journey) or even through hybrid journeys (e.g. online-to-offline or offline-to-online)
