Ocean Re, a leading reinsurance company with a growing international presence across the Americas and Europe, came to Webheads with a clear challenge. They needed a confident new digital presence, delivered fast, aligned to a key market moment, and built to support multilingual growth. The website had to launch in time for Miami Reinsurance Week, with the entire project delivered in just eight weeks!
Ocean Re, a leading LATAM reinsurance company with a growing international presence across the Americas and Europe, came to Webheads with a clear challenge. They needed a confident new digital presence, delivered at speed, aligned to a key market moment, and built to support multilingual growth.
The project had to be completed within just eight weeks, over the Christmas period, with a fixed go live deadline ahead of Miami Reinsurance Week. Ocean Re had initially been cautious about using WordPress due to a previous bad experience, so we explored other CMS options including SimpleCMS and alternative approaches.
With the timeline in mind, WordPress proved to be the right solution in this instance. It gave us the flexibility to deliver a high quality, multilingual website quickly, while also providing Ocean Re with a secure, scalable and easy to manage platform for the future.
Built for International Growth
We designed and developed a new website focused on clarity, credibility and strong UX, with features and functionality tailored to Ocean Re’s global ambitions:
Collaboration That Kept the Project Moving
This was a genuinely collaborative project. Ocean Re’s team played a major role in shaping the content, messaging and structure needed to bring such an ambitious build to life within the timeframe. With multiple stakeholders involved and a hard launch target in place, momentum and decision making on both sides were key.
The result is a website that feels more established, more international and far more aligned with Ocean Re’s market position. It gives the business a stronger digital presence today, while laying the right foundation for future development in Phase 2.
The Right Platform for the Brief
Not every project needs the same technical answer. In Ocean Re’s case, WordPress was absolutely the right fit. It enabled rapid delivery, multilingual flexibility, straightforward content management and a secure framework for future expansion.
The end result is a site that looks confident, performs well and gives Ocean Re the platform they need to continue building their international presence.
“This project was all about balancing ambition with speed. Ocean Re needed a site that felt credible, international and high quality, but it also had to be delivered within a very tight window. WordPress gave us the flexibility to do that properly, and the result is a platform they can build on with confidence.”, JM Littman, Webheads
