About Zego Insurance is one of the most important industries in the world and one of the least loved.
It's complex.
It's confusing.
It doesn't champion the customer.
Zego is changing that.
We combine telematics, technology and a relentless focus on the customer to build motor insurance products that actually reward good drivers and serve the businesses and individuals who keep the world moving.
We operate as a regulated insurance group with a UK Holding company and MGA, a Gibraltan carrier and a growing Portuguese subsidiary, with finance sitting at the centre of all of it.
Purpose of the role The External Reporting Manager is accountable for the delivery of statutory accounts, the SFCR narrative, the external audit cycle, the tax compliance pack and FCA / GFSC regulatory returns across the Group and MGA.
You'll work directly with the Finance Director, the actuarial function, the Director of Legal and Regulatory Affairs, external auditors (Deloitte) and external tax advisors - and you'll have real visibility with the CFO, the Audit Committee and the Board.
This is a hands‑on role for someone who wants to own a meaty external reporting remit end‑to‑end, in a regulated environment, with the breadth of an insurance group and the pace of a tech company.
Why this role and why now?
You'll be the single accountable lead for the full external reporting cycle of the Group and MGA, working directly with the Finance Director and CFO, with regular Audit Committee exposure.
You'll be supported by, and expected to lead, a Finance function that's genuinely AI‑native.
If you want to build the technical depth of a Big 4 senior manager, with the breadth and pace of a scale‑up, this is the seat.
