Job description
- Applications must only be made via the link in this advertisement and NOT through other channels such as emails, mobile, socials, scheduling calls from our PRO PMs website booking tool or calling us via PRO PMs website contact details.
- We guarantee that every CV application will be viewed, assessed fairly and as such, please do not call for a status. Once an initial shortlist has been established, we do however guarantee to provide accurate feedback once any conversations have commenced with any candidates, and we are very transparent and timely about status and progress from that point forwards.
- Initiating direct contact will not benefit your application, it detracts on time for all and would introduce a bias into the process which we do not support. It can negatively affect your application as these instructions are clear. This is to assist all applicants and the client in a swift efficient sourcing process to find the highest calibre contractor suited for the stated requirements.
Requirements
We are seeking an experienced Technical Project Manager with deep DevOps expertise and proven Scrum Master capabilities to work alongside Data Team leads within a corporate re-insurance organisation. This role requires a hands-on technical PM who can lead delivery using agile methodologies whilst maintaining strong technical credibility with development and data engineering teams.
This is a part-time engagement initially (3 days per week for the first month) before transitioning to Full time 5dpw delivery.
Must have the following:
- Proven Technical Project Management experience with strong DevOps background
- Demonstrated Scrum Master experience with practical agile delivery (not theoretical)
- Strong understanding of DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and technical delivery environments
- Experience working alongside data teams and data engineering functions
- Strong Power BI skills with experience in data visualization and reporting projects
- Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills with ability to work autonomously
- Comfortable working remotely with minimal supervision whilst maintaining strong team collaboration
Highly Desirable:
- Re-insurance domain knowledge or familiarity
- Experience with data platform or analytics project delivery
- Background in financial services or regulated environments
This fast-paced environment requires someone who can bridge technical delivery with agile project management, maintaining pace whilst ensuring quality outcomes for data-focused initiatives. This is not a process-driven PM role, nor suitable for those without strong technical DevOps background. We are seeking a technical delivery leader who can work at pace with data teams whilst maintaining robust agile practices.
Please do not apply if:
- You do not have strong DevOps and technical project management experience
- You are a Scrum Master without broader project management capabilities
- You have retail insurance background rather than corporate/re-insurance
- You are seeking a traditional waterfall PM or PMO role
