About the company

MTech Capital is a newly-established, $150 million venture capital firm with offices in Los Angeles and London.

Focused on technology-enabled investment opportunities which they believe can transform one or more elements of the insurance industry (what they broadly refer to as “InsureTech”). Their ambition is to become the preeminent venture capital firm for InsureTech entrepreneurs globally.

MTech Capital was founded by Kevin McLoughlin and Brian McLoughlin, a team with deep expertise and complementary skills in the insurance industry and venture capital.

Kevin McLoughlin spent 22 years in insurance investment banking, most recently as the Global Head of Insurance Investment Banking at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, and prior to that, as Global Head of Insurance Banking at Citigroup.
Brian McLoughlin was a partner at Upfront Ventures for 14 years, specializing in investing in early-stage companies in the financial technology (“FinTech”) sector.

About the role

The role involves industry analyses (insurance and asset management), contributing to deal flow into the firm by actively contacting startups, assisting in the evaluation of potential investments, and reporting to our investors, who are among the largest and most sophisticated insurance companies globally.

This is an opportunity to play an early, integral role in building MTech Capital into the global leader in InsureTech venture capital.
