German insurance broker and risk consulting group with 3B€ annual premium volume
Ecclesia Group is a large German insurance broker and risk consultant with over 2,800 employees managing €3 billion in annual premium volume across corporate and institutional clients. The tech stack reflects a hybrid infrastructure: legacy systems (AS/400) coexist with modern analytics (Databricks, Power BI, Python, R), and hiring is tilted heavily toward sales and operations roles rather than engineering—only 4 open engineering positions against 21 in sales—suggesting growth is customer-acquisition-driven rather than platform-build-focused. Active projects in data pipeline development and IT architecture redesign indicate modernization underway to handle operational complexity.
Notable leadership hires: Division Head Liability Insurance, Help Desk Team Lead
Ecclesia Group operates as one of Germany's largest insurance brokers, serving mid-market companies, SMEs, large hospitals, and ecclesiastical institutions. The portfolio spans insurance purchasing, risk consulting, contract management, claims handling, and pension program design. The group includes specialized subsidiaries for sector-specific needs (credit insurance, healthcare, reinsurance brokerage) and extends operations across six European countries plus a global network covering over 170 countries. Revenue generation is tied to premium volume placement (€3B p.a.), and competitive advantage rests on breadth of underwriting partnerships (three underwriting agents), breadth of customer segments, and complementary services beyond pure brokerage.
