What you'll doAs Manager, Risk & Insurance, you'll join Giga's Risk & Insurance team, reporting directly to the Head of Risk & Insurance.

You'll travel occasionally (about 10% of the time, roughly a couple of trips per year) for company and team offsites to stay closely connected with Growth and Finance, given how tightly this role works with them.
