Manager Director jobs in Gran Bretaña

You desire impactful work.

You’re RGA ready

RGA is a purpose-driven organization working to solve today’s challenges through innovation and collaboration. A Fortune 500 Company and listed among its World’s Most Admired Companies, we’re the only global reinsurance company to focus primarily on life- and health-related solutions. Join our multinational team of intelligent, motivated, and collaborative people, and help us make financial protection accessible to all.

A Brief Overview

This role is open in any of RGA’s locations.

We are looking for a Lead Behavioural Scientist with a strong academic background (MSc/PhD) and experience in delivering behavioural insights in applied settings, ideally within the (re)insurance industry.

Based in London and St Louis, with a global focus, our team are specialists in understanding the “why” behind life and health insurance decision-making. Our mission is to help insurers create products, policies, and communications that reflect how people really think and behave, rather than how we think they should think and behave. By doing so, we contribute to RGA’s purpose of making financial protection accessible to all.

We support life and health insurance clients worldwide with key behavioural challenges. Our work includes conducting research and sharing behavioural insights through publishing, presenting, and content creation. We also work directly with clients to implement solutions addressing their challenges. Our projects range from increasing insurance product sales to changing health behaviours. Examples include:

• Researching risks and opportunities related to human interaction with AI in insurance.
• Improving customers’ understanding of life and health insurance products during sales.
• Enhancing underwriting journeys to increase disclosure accuracy and customer experience.
• Optimizing products and sales journeys to boost conversions.
• Creating interventions to help consumers return to work quickly and safely after illness.
• Designing wellness programs using scientifically recognized behaviour change techniques.

The Lead Behavioural Scientist will be an active team member from day one, reporting to the Chief Behavioural Scientist and collaborating closely with other team members. This role offers the opportunity to influence the behavioural science strategy within an organization that values this discipline.

Ideal candidates will have strong technical skills in research and applied behavioural science, a proactive and enthusiastic attitude, and a growth mindset. You should enjoy working in teams, collaborating across levels, driving your own projects, working with clients, creating content, and thinking strategically about new research directions.
