PURPOSE
Find the problem worth solving, turn it into a live buildable backlog, redesign the process around AI and make sure the value lands.

Job Responsibilities

• Run continuous direct discovery with process owners and front-line users; discovery is delivery work.
• Identify the real broken process and express the value hypothesis in terms a P&L owner recognises.
• Convert discovery into a live, prioritised backlog the AI-FDE can build against immediately.
• Own process redesign and adoption: the change counts only when customer people use the new process.
• Hold scope to the measurable business outcome through MVE build, validation and production.
• Present results and next priorities from front line to executive sponsor; feed patterns to the catalogue and R&D.
• Partners one-to-one with the AI-FDE. Not the BVDE (account-level value) or PDE (programme and commercial). Customer process owners co-own adoption.

How success is judged:

• Quality and value of the backlog, not volume of requirements.
• Measured production outcome and customer adoption.
• Speed from idea to buildable use case; value delivered per account and expansion.

Job Requirements

• 8+ years in P&C or L&A insurance operations or consulting; process redesign and business cases.
• Domain-expert-challenger; executive presence with COOs and CUOs and with front-line users.
• Working data fluency (SQL, Python or advanced Excel); low ego, high tolerance for ambiguity.
• A record of process redesign that delivered a measurable result: cost, speed, loss ratio or customer experience.
• Curiosity about AI: you have led automation or AI work, or you are ready to learn fast inside a pod.
• Experience of core insurance systems or Sapiens implementations would desired but not essential

Job Benefits

• Total target cash at the top quarter of the market, with 25% variable tied to the value you deliver.
• A team of engineers who build what you design, on a platform made for insurance.
• A role at the start of a new model in the industry, with room to grow into pod and regional leadership.
