TiLT | Part of Howden Retail UK&I
Location: Home-based, with regular travel to London, Peterborough and partner locations as required.
TiLT (Part of Howden Retail UK&I) is on a mission to make business insurance simple, fast and fair.
We're looking for a commercially minded Director of Trading & Distribution to join our growing business. This role sits within TiLT, a fast-growing insurtech that is reimagining business insurance through straightforward, digital-first solutions for modern businesses. Having launched recently and now backed by the strength and scale of Howden Retail UK&I, TiLT offers a unique opportunity to help shape the future of a business with significant growth ambitions.
The Director of Trading & Distribution will be responsibile for shaping and delivering TiLT's distribution strategy, driving insurer trading performance and building new routes to market. You'll work across insurer partners, internal stakeholders and external distribution channels to turn commercial opportunities into sustainable, profitable growth.
Whilst strategic in nature, this is not a role for someone who prefers to lead from the sidelines. As a growing business, we're looking for a hands-on leader who enjoys building, problem-solving and delivering outcomes. You'll be equally comfortable developing strategy, negotiating partnerships, influencing senior stakeholders and rolling up your sleeves to make things happen.
