About Kota
Kota is the world's first fully integrated benefits platform, where insurance and retirement providers are powered and billed in one place. We do this by building the infrastructure on the Internet for insurance providers to get online and enhance their distribution opportunities for a new era of workers—those with increased financial literacy, expecting consumer-first user experiences and a global outlook.
Our mission is to make insurance and benefits more accessible to this generation of employees.
Kota was started in 2022 and has raised over €20m from Europe’s top technology investors, including EQT Ventures, Northzone, Frontline and angels, including Job Van Der Voort of Remote, Romain Huet, formerly of Stripe, now Open AI, David Clarke formerly of Workday. The companies our investors have previously backed or built include the likes of Spotify, Airbnb, Klarna, Truelayer, Snapchat, Workday, Personio, Workvivo, Pointy, Workable, Wayflyer and more.
We work in a hybrid work environment with a minimum of 2 days per week required in our London or Dublin office.
