About Open
Say hello to insurance that works wonders. At Open, we're on a mission to provide the best insurance experiences, at the best price, for the world. Insurance is one of the world's least digitally mature industries - for years it's remained confusing, paper-based and heavily intermediated. We launched in 2016 to build a global, AI-powered platform that digitises the entire insurance process, making it transparent, less costly and more reliable.

Our team thrive on solving problems to revolutionise insurance and have a ‘no excusesʼ attitude when it comes to putting our customers first. We have a high performing team and an open and enabling culture that attracts the best creative and critical thinkers. Join us and letʼs build the future of insurance together.

About The Role
We created the BizOps team at Open to assist in defining and driving, operational and organisational improvements across Open. It operates like an internal consulting group that works on a range of critical projects and issues and sees them through to implementation.

• Focused - you can keep your eyes on the prize, even when there are a million competing priorities
• A high achiever - you've always been able to generate success

You'll be expected to work autonomously and with teams. You will be expected to get things done, and be able to point to your impact.

You'll have some (but not necessarily all) of the experiences described here:
You have ~1-2 years of experience at a top-tier management consulting firm, engineering firm, law firm or investment bank with a proven bias to execution

~1-2 years of experience in a similar Business Operations role at a high growth startup


Why Open?
It's an exciting time to join Open Technology Services AU and be part of a tech company going through a hyper-growth phase. We provide our team with:
