About the role

Translated into English from French by Korum. The employer's original wording is on their site.

At Seyna, our mission is simple: enable insurance professionals to protect those who think big.

Join our mission! πŸš€

Seyna is an insurer that brings unmatched efficiency to brokers. Thanks to its technology and the responsiveness of its teams, Seyna supports brokers at every stage of their development: creation of bespoke insurance products, sales and management tools, analysis and improvement of the insurance product, compliance.

Since its launch in 2019, the date on which Seyna obtained its ACPR insurer licence, Seyna has convinced more than 100 brokers, including SPVIE, Verspieren, WTW, Garantme, APRIL, Marsh or even Dalma. They use Seyna to protect nearly two million insured persons across 6 European countries. Thanks to an investment of 57 million euros from GFC, WhiteStar Capital, Elaia and 115K (La Banque Postale), Seyna has global ambitions to improve the insurance sector by modernising the design and management of insurance programmes.

TA FUTURE Γ‰QUIPE :

The Risk Management department ensures that Seyna takes the right level of risk to achieve its objectives, while protecting its cash, assets and reputation. It identifies and assesses risks and disseminates a common risk culture among all Seynators.

As Director, you will oversee the entire framework - from regulatory compliance (Solvency II, ACPR) to risk governance - in a context where the subject is closely monitored by the board and the regulator.

CE QUE TU FERAS :
  • Risk management system: Ensure its proper functioning and produce regular, comprehensible reporting for the governance bodies (Comex, Audit Committee, Board of Directors).

  • Risk management policy: Update the policy, the risk map, and assess the impact of the DMRs and their correct application.

  • Key Risk & internal control function: Perform the key Risk function, manage internal control with the support of a colleague, communicate monthly results and produce the internal control report.

  • Solvency II & ORSA: Be responsible for producing the Solvency 2 reports (QRT), calculating the solvency ratio, and producing/updating the ORSA.

  • ACPR relations: Be responsible for the relationship with the ACPR and ensure that commitments made are kept.

  • Committee governance: Chair the qualification board and the Risk Committee, and take part in broker monitoring committees with the Client Performance Director.

  • Risk culture: Support the Revenue and Client Performance teams on risk appetite, and disseminate a risk culture throughout the company without slowing the business down!

TU ES AU BON ENDROIT SI :
  • You know how to design and run risk management frameworks that balance growth and risk control.

  • You master Solvency II regulations and ACPR reporting - a real asset given the intensity of our current relationship with the regulator.

  • You have strong actuarial skills and know how to challenge provisioning, pricing and FP&A studies.

  • You master internal control tools and methodologies (levels 1 and 2).

  • You know how to communicate risk issues to varied audiences - CEO, board, regulator - adapting your message to each.

  • You have strong cross-functional leadership, capable of engaging the whole company without it being experienced as an imposed constraint.

  • You have a business partner mindset, solution-oriented, that avoids excessive risk aversion.

✨ Bonus if you know customer acquisition dynamics and business indicators, to communicate effectively with sales teams.

CE QUE SEYNA TE PROPOSE :

πŸ’΅ Remuneration: A competitive package with BSPCEs so that you can share in the success as we grow.

πŸ– Paid leave: 7 to 10 days of RTT (depending on the number of working days in the year) in addition to your 28 days of paid leave.
