Key responsibilities

Managed Service Delivery -

• Own offshore AMS delivery (L2/L3 support, maintenance and enhancements) for insurance
platforms against contractual SLAs, KPIs and XLAs.

• Apply ITIL processes pragmatically across incident, problem, change and release, and lead
major incident management and root cause analysis.

• Plan and execute transitions of new scope into steady state

Clients and suppliers -

• Act as the senior offshore point of contact for client delivery and IT leadership, and run
governance from weekly service reviews to QBRs.

• Operate within a multi-supplier ecosystem: coordinate handoffs, OLAs and shared incidents,
and keep accountability clear across suppliers.

claims) to set delivery priorities.





• Guide teams supporting platforms such as Guidewire, Duck Creek, Majesco or Sapiens, and
ensure regulatory and data privacy requirements are met.

AI, automation and innovation -

• Champion an AI-first delivery model, using GenAI for ticket triage, resolution
recommendations, knowledge generation and self-service.

• Deliver automation through shift-left, self-healing, AIOps and agentic AI, with measurable
gains in productivity and resolution time.

• Apply AI-assisted engineering, and take GenAI pilots into secure, governed production with
responsible AI controls.

• Bring a regular pipeline of innovation proposals to clients, backed by business cases.

Product mindset -

and evolve it through a roadmap.

• Build reusable assets and accelerators that scale across clients

People and Commercials -

• Lead and grow a 30–40 person multi-vendor blended team of client, in-house and partner staff
under one delivery model.

• Own resource planning, rosters, performance management and attrition.

expansion and proposals.

in insurance (P&C;, Life & Annuities, or Health).

• Must have: directly managed a team of 30–40 people in an onshore–offshore model.





• Must have: led multi-vendor blended teams of client, in-house and third-party staff.

• Must have: delivered in a multi-supplier ecosystem with shared SLAs, OLAs and integrated
service management.

• Proven record running AMS engagements under SLA- or outcome-based contracts, using ITIL
and ITSM tools such as ServiceNow.

• Working understanding of the AI and GenAI stack (LLMs, RAG, vector databases, agents;
platforms such as Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Vertex AI or Anthropic Claude) and AI-era
delivery practices (AI-assisted coding, LLMOps, CI/CD, cloud deployment).

value delivered.

• Ownership of delivery financials, and confident communication with senior stakeholders.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science or a related field

Preferred qualifications -

CPCU, LOMA).

• Hands-on exposure to AIOps tools and GenAI use cases in insurance, such as claims
summarisation or document intelligence.

• Product management exposure, and experience with clients in North America, the UK or
Europe.

Key competencies -

• Client-first, with strong stakeholder and escalation management across suppliers.

• Passion for AI and innovation, with a product mindset focused on outcomes rather than
