The Company
Rostella is based in Cardiff and provides services to both Hedgehog and 1Cover, with both companies looking to grow their businesses.
This means we provide a range of functions including customer service, claims handling, underwriting, pricing and other car insurance related functions. We're a data-driven, agile company where everyone is expected to come up with ideas and help implement them to continually improve what we do and how we do it. Our aim is to create and maintain an industry-leading customer experience.

Whether you're helping resolve claims from overseas travellers or supporting process improvements across regions, you'll gain global exposure and play a vital role in shaping the future of international travel insurance.
