London/Hybrid
£50,000 - £60,000 plus 20% bonus and benefits

Pioneer Search is working with a leading global specialty insurance business on the appointment of a Project Manager within a high performing Change Delivery function.

This is a rare opportunity for someone with strong foundations to join an internal team delivering business and technology change across an international insurance group.

The organisation is looking for someone with the right grounding, attitude and aptitude: someone who has worked in consulting, project delivery, technology implementation, business change or insurance change, and now wants to build a long term career inside a global business.

The opportunity

You will be joining a high performing team that is willing to invest in your development. You will receive support, training and exposure to experienced change leaders, while working on projects that matter to the business.

The role offers exposure to senior stakeholders, including C suite level, and will suit someone who is confident with people, comfortable working through ambiguity and keen to develop quickly in a complex environment.

Projects may cover areas such as business change, technology enabled change, operational improvement, process change, product launches, new distribution channels, acquisitions and wider strategic initiatives.

What you will be doing

• Supporting and leading project delivery across business and technology change initiatives
• Working with senior stakeholders to understand priorities, risks and delivery requirements
• Helping shape project plans, governance, reporting and delivery documentation
• Tracking actions, risks, issues, dependencies, budgets and benefits
• Coordinating business users, technology teams, vendors and project stakeholders
• Supporting workshops, project meetings, steering updates and delivery reporting
• Helping transition completed change into business as usual
• Building strong relationships across an international business

What we are looking for

• 1 year plus experience in consulting, project delivery, business change, transformation, technology implementation or insurance change
• A good grounding in structured project delivery
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
• Confidence working with ambiguity and learning quickly
• High attention to detail and strong work ethic
• Ability to build relationships across business and technology teams
• Experience in financial services, insurance, consulting or technology enabled change would be beneficial
• PRINCE2, Agile or equivalent project exposure would be useful but is not essential

Why this role?

• Move from consulting into an internal change team
• Work with senior stakeholders, including C suite level
• Join a high performing team with strong training and support
• Gain exposure to varied business and technology change
• Build a long term project delivery career inside a global insurance business
• Secure a strong package at early career level.

This would suit someone who has had a good grounding in consulting or project delivery and is now ready for more ownership, deeper stakeholder relationships and long term development inside a global organisation.
