About Monika
I am Head of Data Science at Hiscox London Market, leading the delivery of data science and AI across underwriting, claims and the broader business. I focus on driving measurable commercial impact by scaling solutions into production and building a high-performing team that enables more effective, data-led decision-making. My role combines strategy and delivery. I work with underwriting, claims and other stakeholders to identify high‑value opportunities, translate complex problems into practical solutions and ensure adoption. I also lead the team, set priorities and focus on execution and embedding outputs into decision-making. I joined through the Hiscox graduate scheme and built my career in data science, progressing into leadership. My focus has been moving from experimentation to production, delivering commercially impactful solutions, scaling the team and building ways of working that support consistent delivery. I have worked in insurance for nearly eight years, all within Hiscox London Market, partnering across underwriting, claims and change to deliver data-driven improvements in supporting decision-making and efficiency.
I lead mentoring within the Women in Technology network at Hiscox, mentor more broadly and contribute to industry panels and thought leadership on practical, commercially focused applications of data and AI.
