Pricing Manager - Travel Insurance

Admiral is currently recruiting for a Pricing Manager within our Travel Insurance department. This is a rare and exciting opportunity to step into a key leadership role at a pivotal stage of growth. Our Travel business is expanding rapidly, pricing approaches are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and the team is growing both in size and expertise. This role follows a hybrid model, with a requirement to be in our Cardiff office once a week.

At Admiral, Pricing has always been a fundamental cornerstone of our success. While the wider travel industry remains relatively simple in its pricing approach, often relying on basic tools and limited data, we have a unique opportunity to lead the way. By leveraging Admiral’s group-wide pricing capabilities, we aim to build more advanced, data-driven pricing strategies and create a sustainable competitive advantage.

We’re looking for an ambitious and forward-thinking pricing leader who is passionate about challenging the status quo within the travel insurance space. You’ll lead one of our key pricing pillars, managing a team of analysts while shaping rating structures, exploring new data sources, strengthening controls, and driving innovation across pricing.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and continuously enhance pricing and rating structures to improve performance
  • Drive competitive advantage through smarter rate change management, data use and risk selection
  • Identify and deliver strategic pricing opportunities to support sustainable growth
  • Use modelling and market insights to inform pricing decisions and forecast impact
  • Analyse large loss trends and embed insights into pricing strategy
  • Ensure pricing decisions meet regulatory requirements, including fair pricing practices
  • Oversee end-to-end rate changes, ensuring accurate implementation and strong governance
  • Improve data quality and insight to support better decision-making
  • Coordinate prioritisation, delivery and monitoring of pricing changes
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure alignment and effective delivery
  • Lead, coach and develop a high-performing pricing team

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
