ABOUT MARSHMALLOW

We build financial products that accelerate the economic freedom for people who move across borders. We started with car insurance — insuring over a million drivers — and we’re scaling beyond. Tens of millions of people move countries each year, facing overlooked financial challenges. Our future is in building financial products around their needs to positively impact their lives.

HOW WE WORK

We’re really proud of the culture we’ve created. We push for progress every day, because we know that we’ll only hit big milestones by taking lots of smaller steps. We’re always open to helping our team mates, sharing our ideas, experience and knowledge to solve problems together. We take risks, think creatively and experiment relentlessly to meet our customer’s needs, and never pass blame when things go wrong. We encourage people at all levels to take ownership of their work, and to be bold in challenging how we do things. Everyone has a voice and the opportunity to make an impact.
And autonomy and ownership are only possible with clear direction. That’s why we collaborate to do in-depth planning twice a year, and make sure we leave with clear goals and objectives that flow from top to bottom. To make sure we’re as aligned as possible across functions, most of our work rolls up into three tribes; Acquisition, Retention & Claims. Each tribe has multiple teams embedded in it, working cross-functionally to do great work.
We’re so excited for all of the challenges up ahead, and we need more people to help us tackle them! If life at Marshmallow sounds like it could be for you, explore our Culture Handbook to find out more.
We’re looking for an experienced Technical Skills L&D Manager to join our team on a 12 month FTC and lead the development of functional and technical capability across our motor insurance business—with a particular focus on operational teams. This is a key role responsible for shaping and delivering impactful learning experiences that build confidence, capability, and performance in frontline and business-critical roles.
You’ll take ownership of our technical skills development strategy, working with leaders and People Partners to identify learning needs across Operations, Customer Experience, Claims, and other key functions. From onboarding through to role-specific upskilling, you’ll design and deliver learning solutions that support our people to do their best work—every day.
You’ll work closely with department leads, team managers, and the broader People team to ensure learning is embedded into how we develop, support, and measure performance. You’ll also partner with subject matter experts and external providers to create accessible, practical learning for employees at all levels.
This is a brilliant opportunity to make a measurable difference to the way we build and grow capability across our business, and to embed a culture of continuous, operational learning.
