Senior Marketing Executive

We're looking for a Senior Marketing Executive to join our team at Veygo! 

Why Veygo

Veygo was founded 6 years ago – part of the pioneering incubation venture ‘Admiral Pioneer’ - created to seed and launch exciting scale ups to disrupt existing marketplaces.     

Veygo has so far seen an impressive 50% YoY growth. We currently provide our customers with temporary and learner car insurance - products designed to make life easier for those wanting to share or borrow cars, insure their own car for a short amount of time, or for people learning to drive.  

What makes Veygo different 

• We’re building flexible policies for learner drivers and people looking to share cars – whether owned or borrowed.   
• Veygo provides comprehensive cover to those customers, meaning that the car owner’s existing insurance policy and no claims bonus is safe if the person borrowing the car has an accident.  
• All Veygo’s insurance is available by the hour, day, week or month and customers can get a quote in minutes.    
• All backed by Admiral, voted Best UK Car Insurance Provider six years in a row by The Personal Finance Awards.   

Whilst our mission today is to put people in control of their own journey our ambition is to create a youth lifestyle brand that take us beyond car insurance.  Disruption is in our DNA and we’re always relentlessly looking for collaborative self-starters and innovators with the desire to challenge how we do things today; to push the boundaries and drive us through our onward growth journey. Veygo’s culture is vibrant, open, creative, and disruptive.
