Policygenius Welcomes Matthew Mak as Head of Revenue Operations

NEW YORK, Aug. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Financial services leader Policygenius announced today the hiring of Matthew Mak as the company's Head of Revenue Operations. Mak will be responsible for ensuring that, as the company continues to grow, Policygenius sales and fulfillment teams across multiple business verticals have the reporting, processes, systems, and tools to achieve performance goals and execute on strategic priorities.

Mak brings more than 20 years of sales and business operations experience to Policygenius. Most recently, Mak was Head of Sales and Fulfillment Insights at homeownership platform Better, where he grew the organization from two to more than 70 people and led the team to significantly improve conversion rates.

Mak joins Policygenius at an exciting time in the startup's rapid growth trajectory. The company recently reached a new milestone of 600 employees and expanded to a second headquarters in Durham, North Carolina. In 2020, Policygenius announced $100 million in Series D funding as well as an exclusive accelerated underwriting life insurance product in collaboration with Brighthouse Financial.

"As our business continues to quickly scale, Matthew's wealth of experience driving operational impact across industries will make him a tremendous asset to our leadership team," Jennifer Fitzgerald, Policygenius CEO and co-founder, said.

"I'm delighted at the opportunity to work with Policygenius to educate and empower our consumers," Mak said. "The company's mission and ethos is inspiring and an amazing model to build upon."
