Job description

Who We Are

Since its inception, Aventum Group has sought a different approach to insurance. We are on a mission to be the ‘most inspiring specialty (re)insurance group in the world’.

At the heart of Aventum are our people. Working together in dynamic, service‑focused teams, we prioritise our customers in everything we do. Collaboration fuels our success, courage drives our innovation and continuous improvement keeps us ahead in a rapidly evolving industry. Our shared commitment is to revolutionise insurance for the better, one day at a time.

We also believe that investing in our people is investing in our future. By empowering people across the Group to develop their careers, advance within the Group, and embrace new challenges, we build an environment where growth and learning never stop.

Our competitive benefits package, offered via a flexible benefits platform, reflects this. Beyond core benefits, employees have the freedom to tailor their benefits to meet their individual needs, supporting their unique goals and ambitions.

Role Summary

We’re looking for a Product Manager with deep exposure to underwriting processes—someone who understands the rhythm of risk selection, pricing, and submission triage, and can translate that into intuitive, scalable digital products.

You’ll be responsible for leading product development across our underwriting platforms, working closely with underwriters, data scientists, engineers, and business stakeholders to deliver tools that improve efficiency, accuracy, and decision‑making.

Key Accountabilities

• Own the product lifecycle for underwriting‑focused features from discovery to delivery.
• Collaborate with underwriting teams to understand pain points in submission handling, triage, pricing, and capacity management.
• Translate underwriting workflows into product requirements, user stories, and experience maps.
• Lead sprint planning, backlog grooming, and roadmap development with cross‑functional teams.
• Define and track success metrics aligned to underwriting performance (e.g., quote turnaround time, hit ratios, loss ratios).
• Partner with data and AI teams to embed intelligent automation into underwriting processes (e.g. triage, claims prediction, risk scoring).
• Drive adoption and change management across underwriting teams, ensuring products are embedded into daily workflows.
• Maintain a strong feedback loop with users, iterating rapidly based on insights and performance data.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a forward‑thinking Product Manager in insurance, ideally within underwriting, pricing, or submission management.
• Strong understanding of commercial lines underwriting, MGA workflows and Lloyd’s market practices.
• Demonstrable ability to work with technical teams to build scalable, secure, and user‑friendly products.
• Experience with agile methodologies, product discovery, and stakeholder engagement.
• Familiarity with tools like ADO, Jira, Confluence, Figma, and analytics platforms.
• Bonus: Exposure to AI/ML applications in insurance, such as automated triage, document classification, or predictive pricing.

Management Duties

• No

We are an equal opportunity employer, and we are proud to share that 93% of our employees say they can be themselves at work.

Because together, we’re limitless.

We value applicants from all backgrounds and foster a culture of inclusivity. We understand the need for flexibility, so work in a hybrid model. Please let us know if you require any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process.
