Our Mission
At hyperexponential, we’re changing the way global insurers approach pricing. In a world where big decisions like launching rockets or building skyscrapers rely on insurance, many of the industry’s most important pricing models still run on outdated tools like Excel.
That’s why we built hx Renew, a powerful platform that automates pricing, processes data at scale, and delivers advanced models in under 30 minutes. With over £45 billion in Gross Written Premium flowing through our platform and $73 million raised in Series B funding, we’re now scaling globally with offices in London, Warsaw, and New York.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Legal and Operations Support Associate to help build and shape our Legal and Business Operations function alongside our Head of Legal. This is a unique opportunity to be the first person in this role and play a key part in supporting our ambitious global expansion.
You’ll work across legal, supplier management, and compliance, helping operationalise scalable frameworks and automate processes that enable us to grow efficiently. If you enjoy building from scratch, collaborating across teams, and turning legal complexity into practical workflows, we’d love to hear from you.
You’ll also work closely with teams across the business including Revenue Operations, Marketing, Engineering, and FP&A, acting as a connector between legal strategy and operational execution. This is a collaborative role, requiring strong communication skills and a willingness to build structure in a fast-moving, evolving environment.
