Marketing Manager

Company Overview

Lavvi is an InsurTech driven by purpose – to connect families with financial security. For over 16 years, life insurance companies have trusted us to deliver software and strategies that increase online distribution reach and grow life insurance revenue, to ultimately safeguard more lives. 

Life’s unexpected challenges can strike without warning, leaving families vulnerable and in dire need of support. We dream of a future where no one would ever have to witness another heart-wrenching crowd-sourced fundraising campaign for a funeral or family members left behind without financial support. 

Our vision is a world where there is financial security for all, and our mission is to deliver software that amplifies life insurer’s reach across North America. 

Our life insurance distribution platform helps mid-market insurers reach more families on any distribution channel (advisor facing, consumer facing, or hybrid). Insurers can surpass their distribution strategy goals with the most human-centered all-in-one distribution platform with unparalleled control and configurations.
