Insurance Legal Counsel

Descripción del puesto:

Health can't wait.

Not for symptoms to get worse. Not for a six-month appointment. Not for a system to catch up. But that's exactly how healthcare works today. You wait, until you can't.
Alan exists to end the wait.
Health is a universal right, and we believe this right can only become real when it's coupled with prevention. We need to stop treating health as something we repair and start treating it as something we build, every day. It's not solely a question of willpower. It's the healthcare system itself that needs to work for everyone, in a sustainable way.
So we are building the new standard in prevention insurance. Alan is the first company that integrates insurance, prevention, and care into a single, acclaimed user experience.
We are on an incredible journey to build a global leading company, with a unique culture. We already partner with 40K+ companies of all sizes, serving more than 1M+ members, and have reached EUR800M+ in ARR.
Prevention as the new norm. That's what we're building with our team of 800+ people. If it speaks to you: we're hiring across France, Spain, Belgium, and Canada. And beyond.

Missions

As Insurance Legal Counsel, you will contribute to a wide range of legal and business challenges, building your expertise and impact across Alan's regulatory, compliance, and commercial activities.
At any point in time, your missions could include the following:
* You will contribute to protecting Alan's competitive edge on key topics like the angle we take on regulatory requirements that apply to our products and contracts. Working alongside more senior teammates, you will develop a sharp awareness of the competitive landscape in health and disability insurance, learn to articulate Alan's risk appetite, and help turn complex regulatory constraints into practical business solutions.
* You will support Alan's legal involvement in key business conversations, contributing to RFP responses, contractual negotiations with clients and partners, and direct engagement with prospects. You will develop your negotiation skills and regulatory expertise in high-stakes settings, with guidance from the broader legal team.
* You will contribute to our product excellence and the protection of our members, helping to identify optimal ways to meet regulatory requirements in our products while improving member experience (e.g., on pricing components, options definition, UX design, or how we manage complaints).
* You will support our insurance compliance posture: you will help translate regulatory obligations into Alan's tools and operational processes, contribute to responses to inspections and audits, and participate in compliance reporting to Alan's relevant internal bodies, building your understanding of how exposure is managed proactively.
* You will support insurance compliance projects across Alan's growing markets. Your work will primarily focus on France, with opportunities to contribute to international compliance projects, helping ensure a robust set-up across Alan's markets as you grow your experience.
* You will contribute to efforts to influence regulatory evolutions and help maintain productive relationships with insurance regulators, in collaboration with regulatory affairs and public affairs teammates.
* You will help increase Alan's legal autonomy by contributing to internal legal frameworks, templates, and decision-making guidelines. You will share learnings with teammates, participate in identifying which matters can be handled in-house versus with external support, and actively use AI tools to improve efficiency within your scope.

You will work as part of the Corporate Unit, led by Marion Bergeret, where teammates from diverse backgrounds combine their skills and intelligence to overcome hurdles and anticipate Alan's future growth. In your daily work, you will collaborate closely with and be mentored by Elise Toureau, Alan's senior insurance legal counsel.
You will also work closely with Alan's Business, Product and Care teams, finding the best pragmatic solutions to the questions raised.
At Alan, we embrace that roles evolve and expand beyond their initial scope. Your journey will be filled with opportunities to grow. You'll be empowered to tackle new challenges across multiple domains (e.g. new vertical openings, public sector opportunities, regulated product bets, public affairs), building a unique path that matches your ambitions and directly impacts the future of healthcare.

* Provided responsive legal contributions to different internal teams (e.g., Care, Sales) on various matters, earning their trust as a reliable legal partner who understands Alan's goals and provides practical solutions.
