Tired of Corporate Politics?
Ready to Do Work That Actually Matters?
Work on meaningful insurance challenges with interesting clients. No business development. No corporate BS. Equity for the right people.
Who is this for?
You’ve done the real work
Held P&L responsibility - You've made decisions that affected the bottom line and lived with the consequences
Held regulated roles - You've dealt with FCA, PRA, GFSC, MFSA, or other regulators and secured approvals
Built and led teams - You've hired, developed, and sometimes fired people
Led transformations - You've driven change in real businesses, not just advised on it from the outside
You’re Frustrated With Corporate Life
Endless politics slows you down - You spend more time managing stakeholders than solving problems
Your expertise isn't valued - Decisions get made by people who've never done the work
Tired of turf wars - Internal competition matters more than client outcomes
You know things can be done better - You've seen what works but can't implement it in your current role
You Want Independence
Interesting work without corporate overhead - Solve real problems without performance reviews and utilization targets
Freedom to choose projects - Work on challenges that match your expertise and interests
Collaboration, not isolation - Partner with other experienced operators, not work alone
Skin in the game - Own what you build, don't just get paid for hours
What working with Resnova actually looks like
The Day to Day Reality
Choose your projects: We match opportunities to your expertise and interests. You decide what you take on.
Work directly with clients: No account managers, no layers of approval, no diluted messaging. You're the expert - you work directly with the client.
Collaborate with operators: Work alongside other former CEOs, CUOs, regulatory specialists, and market experts. People who've actually done the work.
Get paid for delivery, not timesheets: We care about outcomes, not utilisation rates. No billing target pressure, no time tracking bureaucracy.
No business development quotas: You do the work you're good at. We handle finding clients and winning work.
No internal politics: There's no ladder to climb, no performance rating system, no fighting for resources. Just do great work.
Build something if it works: If you consistently deliver and want more, there's a path to ownership through our equity partnership model.
What You Get
Project autonomy: Choose what you work on based on your expertise and availability
Fair compensation: Competitive day rates or project fees - you get paid what you're worth
Operator community: Access to a network of former insurance executives who've actually run businesses
Modern work culture: Work from where you want, wear what you want (we've worn trainers to regulator meetings)
Equity opportunity: Path to ownership for those who consistently deliver exceptional work
What You Don't Get
× Corporate benefits packages
× Guaranteed monthly salary
× Career progression ladders
× Annual performance reviews
× Expense account perks
× Company car or office
× Traditional "job security"
If you need these things, this isn't for you. And that's fine.
Beyond Project Work: Building Resnova Together
For Operators Who Want to Own What They Build
If you consistently deliver exceptional work and want to build something bigger than individual projects, we offer equity partnership.
How Equity Partnership Works
No capital required: You earn ownership by delivering results, not by writing cheques.
Revenue share: Participate in revenue from your projects and collaborate on larger opportunities.
Equity participation: Earn equity stakes based on delivery, contribution, and commitment to building the business.
Strategic input: Help shape what we build, where we focus, and how we grow.
Long-term partnership: This isn't employment - it's building a business together with other operators.
Who This Is For
Operators who've run insurance businesses and want to do it again on their terms
People who see the gap between traditional consulting and what insurtechs actually need
Professionals who want ownership of what they create, not just payment for hours worked
Those who'd rather share success with people who create it than work for someone else's equity
What We're Building
A different kind of insurance consulting firm:
Operator-led: Everyone has P&L responsibility in their past, not just advisory experience
Execution-focused: We embed and deliver, we don't just present decks and leave
Modern culture: We got regulatory approval while wearing trainers - we understand insurtech
Equity-aligned: The people doing the work own the business
We'd rather share success with contributors than build something we keep to ourselves.
Who We Work With
The Resnova Network
We work with insurance operators who've been where our clients are:
Former CEOs and CUOs who've run insurance carriers and MGAs, secured regulatory approvals, managed P&Ls through growth and crisis, and know the difference between what looks good in strategy documents and what actually works.
Regulatory specialists who've navigated FCA, GFSC, MFSA, and other regulatory frameworks, secured CEO and CUO approvals, managed regulatory relationships during challenging periods, and understand what regulators actually care about.
Actuaries and pricing experts who've built pricing models for real businesses (not academic exercises), developed rating algorithms that balanced growth and profitability, implemented telematics-based pricing, and been accountable for the financial outcomes.
Market specialists across Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and the Americas who know what works in Singapore won't work in Frankfurt have built businesses across multiple jurisdictions and understand local market dynamics beyond what's in the research reports.
Underwriting and claims experts who've built underwriting frameworks from scratch, managed loss ratios under pressure, designed claims processes that balance customer experience with cost control, and lived with the consequences of getting selection wrong.
What They Have in Common
✓ All held P&L responsibility
✓ All dealt with regulators successfully
✓ All built and led teams
✓ All frustrated with corporate politics
✓ All want to do meaningful work without the BS
This Isn’t For You If...
We're not for everyone. This won't work if:
× You love corporate life and want to do the same things the same way If you're happy in your current role, stay there. Seriously.
× You want a traditional Big 4 consulting gig We're not building a pyramid structure where junior consultants do the work and partners play golf.
× You love office politics If navigating internal stakeholders energises you, you'll be bored here.
× You need complete autonomy - you're better working alone This is collaboration with other operators, not solo freelancing.
× You're early in your career - you need to earn your stripes first We're looking for people who've already run things, not people who want to learn how.
× You need guaranteed, regular, or steady income Project work means variable income. If you need a predictable monthly salary, this isn't it.
× You want work-life balance to be someone else's problem You choose your projects and workload. That's freedom, but also responsibility.

Important Notes
No recruiters. If you're a recruitment agency, please don't contact us.
No tire-kickers. If you're just exploring options with no real intent to change, we'll both waste our time.
No junior people looking to break in. This is for operators who've already done the work and want to keep doing it differently.
Only people who've actually run things, dealt with regulators, been accountable for outcomes, and are ready to do something different.

The Door Stays Open
We're building this for the long term. If it makes sense in 6 months or 2 years instead of now, that's fine.
We'd rather wait for the right people than rush with the wrong ones.

Proven experience running insurance operations
Regulatory credibility (even if not currently approved)
Relevant technical expertise
Ability to deliver under pressure
