About us

At Urban Jungle, we’re making insurance fair - to people, planet and wallets. We're one of the fastest-growing businesses in the UK, working to fix one of the biggest industries in the world.

We put customers at the heart of everything we do, using data and technology to make insurance simple, flexible, and affordable.

So far, we’ve helped 300,000 customers get better insurance and become one of the top-rated home insurance providers in the UK.

We placed 1st in Tempo's 2024 award for best startup to work for, and are in the top 10 of Deloitte’s Fast 50. We’ve raised over £43m in funding to date to help us with our mission.

We’re looking for people to join our team of kind, talented people on a mission to change the insurance industry for good.

Working closely alongside our Head of Marketing - who leads on everything performance - you’ll be owning our efforts to build our brand and drive understanding of Urban Jungle, as well as testing more ways to both grow and retain our customers. We’d expect you to be able to rapidly grow your responsibilities as you and the company learn and develop.

Work collaboratively with product and engineering teams (as well as the rest of the business), to make things happen.
Develop and maintain relationships with third parties, including briefing and developing creative to get the best results.

You've read this far! Here's what we're looking for from you:

At least 3 years professional experience in marketing roles.
We don’t expect you to have worked in every channel, but we’re looking for someone who has strong skills and experience in at least a couple of marketing channels and areas and is eager to develop their marketing knowledge even further.
A genuine enthusiasm for identifying growth opportunities using customer insights and/or data, and building marketing campaigns from scratch to take advantage of them.
A passion for creative and creativity - both generating ideas or building on / working with the ideas of others.
A do-er who likes getting their hands dirty solving problems and making things happen.
Strong communication skills to manage internal stakeholders and external partners where necessary (e.g. freelancers, agencies, etc).
Ultimately, you’re highly ambitious with the drive to push both the business and yourself to the next level.

These requirements are a guide as to what we’re looking for, but if you don’t have all of the skills listed above, that’s okay! Please don’t let that hold you back from applying if the role excites you.
