About Us

Cachet is building the insurance infrastructure to let Europe's platform economy thrive. Our technology and services are enabling platforms to control risk and prevent loss at scale.

We design and operate smart, data-driven insurance solutions for shared mobility operators, and digital platforms therefore enabling fairer pricing, flexible coverage, and real-time risk insights.

Our technology and insurance distribution capabilities are trusted by leading partners across Europe, supporting millions of end users in dynamic, real-world environments. Cachet operates across the EU combining regulated insurance expertise with startup-level speed and ambition.

We are scaling rapidly in markets, across products, and partnerships and we are now strengthening our legal function to ensure that growth is enabled, not constrained, by legal and regulatory complexity.

Why This Role Matters

This role is primarily about enabling Cachet’s growth and product development in a highly regulated insurance environment. As the business scales across markets, new products are launched, and partnerships deepen, legal support must be fast, commercially minded, and deeply embedded in the business. We at Cachet are solving complexity from insurance agreements and partner contracts to multi-market legal questions that require nuanced judgment.

• Act as a senior legal partner to the business with a strong focus on insurance and financial-sector compliance matters
• Own and drive legal strategy for current and future markets
• Lead insurance-related internal policy upgrades and governance improvements
• Draft, review, and negotiate complex commercial and insurance agreements (often bespoke)
• Translate regulatory and legal requirements into practical, scalable business solutions
  
  

Day-to-Day Work

• Custom agreements and swift business support
• Ongoing legal problem-solving in a fast-changing environment
• Close collaboration with Sales and other commercial stakeholders

Decision-Making

• Intellectual property
• Product-specific legal work
