Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom Laka Full time
Hello, we're Laka

You might not have heard of us yet - that's OK, you've found us now - come and find out more about our journey...

Founded in 2017, Laka set out to transform insurance by connecting passionate cyclists to form a collective and protect their bikes for when things go wrong - a better model for insurance was born. For once people come first in insurance by fairly sharing the cost amongst each other. We exist to rewrite the rules of insurance so it's something people stand with, not against.

Our model: Laka makes sure everything runs smoothly for The Collective - from exceptionally fast claims, splitting the cost fairly, guaranteeing a maximum price and all the other heavy lifting of a regulated insurance business. For that service, the collective pays Laka a fee relative to the claims in a month.

Take a closer look at exactly what this means and how it works here.

What have we been up to since then...?

In a nutshell, we've been very busy Here are a few of the massive achievements we've had:

Raised an awesome Series A investment round of over $13m

Grown the team to over 50 Lakanauts, based across the UK and NL, enabling a choice-based, remote-first way of working

Launched Laka in a total of 5 countries, essentially helping more people in more places

Captured the UK and NL enthusiast cyclist market and expanded into commercial business partnering

Been awarded 'Best Cycle Insurance Provider' (for the past 5 years in a row - go us )

Opened 3 shiny new offices in London, Bristol & Amsterdam to provide spaces for people to collaborate as they like

We've also achieved a 5* rating on Google Reviews and Glassdoor - go check us out

Help us continue to change an outdated industry...

We're growing real fast on our path to make the Laka collective model the industry standard and we're expanding across segments, products, and territories. We're looking for innovative, bold and brave minds to help us build the world's best insurance company.

The role

Customer Experience (CX) at Laka

As part of a small, dedicated function (we currently have a team of 10 superstars), you'll be the first point of contact for general and claim-related enquiries.

  • Supporting Laka customers (& potential customers) with general questions about Laka's products & services, their bicycle insurance and new initiatives via web chat and email
