Project Manager / Business Analyst with German
About the Client
Our client is a fast-growing InsureTech company, based in Zurich, with a clear focus on changing the claims process, using technologies of today and tomorrow. Vehicle telematics not only redefines the way drivers interact with their cars; it also redefines the way insurers and fleet operators could interact with their customers, especially in the ‘moment of truth’, i.e. when an accident happens. Our client Telematics Solutions allow automotive insurances, as well as fleet, leasing and car rental companies, to leave behind the limitations of today’s first notification of loss and claims’ handling processes, and enable them to progress to a proactive, digital and smart claims and vehicle life-cycle management.
