Insurance Recruitment Agency
in France

As a recruitment agency specialising in insurance, we support insurance companies, mutual insurers, brokers and insurtechs in recruiting expert talent across the entire insurance value chain, including underwriting, claims management, actuarial science, commercial, technical and executive functions.

Through our industry expertise, direct search and headhunting capabilities, we identify and recruit the most suitable professionals to meet the specific challenges of the insurance market.

The French insurance industry recruited approximately 18,400 people in 2025 and currently employs nearly 162,300 professionals. However, recruitment activity is slowing, with hiring declining by 8.6% year-on-year, while specialised insurance talent remains in short supply.

Faced with market consolidation, the emergence of multi-specialist players, accelerated digitalisation and the rise of insurtechs, attracting and retaining the right talent has become a strategic priority. Insurance companies, mutual insurers, bancassurance providers and brokers face increasing competition for technical and operational professionals, often competing with the technology, finance and consulting sectors for the same skills.

As a recruitment agency specialising in insurance in France, Morgan Philips helps companies secure access to these hard-to-find professionals while remaining true to the industry's core values: protection, proximity, commitment and innovation. We combine in-depth market knowledge with a direct search approach that puts candidates at the heart of the recruitment process.
