    About Hiscox

    As an international specialist insurer we are far removed from the world of mass

    market insurance products. Instead we are selective and focus on our key areas of

    expertise and strength - all of which is underpinned by a culture that encourages us

    to challenge convention and always look for a better way of doing things.

    We insure the unique and the interesting. And we search for the same when it comes

    to talented people. Hiscox is full of smart, reliable human beings that look out for

    customers and each other. We believe in doing the right thing, making good and

    rebuilding when things go wrong. Everyone is encouraged to think creatively,

    challenge the status quo and look for solutions.

    Scratch beneath the surface and you will find a business that is solid, but slightly

    contrary. We like to do things differently and constantly seek to evolve. We might

    have been around for a long time (our roots go back to 1901), but we are young in

    many ways, ambitious and going places.

    Some people might say insurance is dull, but life at Hiscox is anything but. If that

    sounds good to you, get in touch.
