Job description

At Verisk, we empower businesses around the world with data, analytics, technology, and deep domain expertise. Our solutions help customers manage risk, improve performance, and make confident decisions in complex environments.

Within Verisk General Insurance UK, we provide market-leading data and analytics solutions that support insurers, brokers, and industry partners. Our datasets span property, motor insurance, fraud prevention, and claims, helping customers better understand risk and improve outcomes.

We're looking for a Data Engineer to join our Norwich-based team and play a key role in delivering customer-facing data solutions. This is an opportunity to work directly with valuable insurance datasets, lead proof-of-concept initiatives, and help shape the way data is delivered, automated, and scaled across the business.

Why this role?

This role offers a unique combination of data engineering, customer impact, and technical ownership.

You'll be trusted to lead underwriting proof-of-concept projects that help customers evaluate the value of Verisk data before making commercial decisions. Your work will directly influence customer outcomes, product adoption, and future business opportunities.

You'll also have the opportunity to improve and automate existing processes, work with modern cloud technologies, and expand your expertise across a broad range of data engineering activities.

What makes this role different:

Own customer proof-of-concept projects from end to end

Work with large-scale property and insurance datasets used throughout the industry

Partner with both technical teams and non-technical business stakeholders

Help modernize and automate existing workflows using AWS and Python

Gain exposure to multiple areas of the data engineering function through cross-training

Join a collaborative team where communication, initiative, and problem-solving are highly valued

About the team

You'll join a team primarily made up of Data Analysts alongside an experienced Data Engineer. The role will work closely with both groups, supporting underwriting databases, sharing knowledge, and contributing to broader data engineering initiatives.

While you'll take primary ownership of proof-of-concept activities, you'll also have the opportunity to learn other areas of the team's work, contributing to a collaborative environment where knowledge sharing and cross-training are encouraged.
