Job Description

WHO ARE WE?

The Genasys story began in 1997. Initially working out of his garage, our Founder recognized that software would be the key to insurance efficiency and great customer experience and set about creating an insurance administration system years ahead of its time.

25 years later, we’ve become the Insurtech leaders in South Africa, established ourselves in the UK market, and we are continuing our expansion into the international markets. Our mission is to be the preferred software solutions partner to the insurance industry throughout Europe, Africa, and the rest of the world.

We provide a comprehensive and dynamic insurance management system that can be applied to any insurance business, regardless of currency, language, or destination.

We deliver our solutions from Cape Town, Johannesburg, and London.
