About Zego At Zego, we understand that traditional motor insurance holds good drivers back. It's too complicated, too expensive, and it doesn't reflect how well you actually drive. Since 2016, we have been on a mission to change that by offering the lowest priced insurance for good drivers. From van drivers and gig workers to everyday car drivers, our customers are the driving force behind everything we do. We've sold tens of millions of policies and raised over $200 million in funding and picked up numerous awards, including the Employer of The Year 2025 as awarded at The Insurance Post's Awards and we’re only just getting started.

Help to prepare reports for the relevant Risk, Compliance and Governance Committees. Monitor action plans arising from assurance activity. Support documentation and escalation of incidents and control failures. Advisory and Collaboration Support the second line of defence by acting as a trusted partner to business teams, helping to provide constructive challenge and guidance on risk matters including conduct, compliance and regulatory risk. Assist in reviewing risk considerations within new product approvals, business change projects, and third-party assessments, escalating issues or observations where appropriate. Help promote a proactive risk culture by supporting delivery of risk training and awareness sessions, and highlight conduct and regulatory risk expectations.
