Paul’s journey is anything but typical. From writing code as a teenager on a ZX Spectrum to launching tech for startups in Borough Market and leading reinsurance innovation at one of the most recognised names in the London Market, his story is full of surprises, learnings, and sharp insights.
We dive into:
Why coming from outside insurance gave Paul the right tools for success inside it
How he scaled a startup from 10 to 350 people while battling burnout
The pivot from project to product thinking at Hiscox
How hiring for attitude (not just skillset) helped him build high-impact teams
What he learned from selling data products to hedge funds
The future of insurance automation and why underwriters still matter
Plus, Paul shares his take on flow engineering, embracing multi-cloud, and loads more.
