Role Details

Who are we?
Look at the latest headlines and you will see something Ki insures. Think space shuttles, world tours, wind farms, and even footballers' legs.

Ki's mission is simple. Digitally disrupt and revolutionise a 335-year-old market. Working with Google and UCL, Ki has created a platform that uses algorithms, machine learning, and large language models to give insurance brokers quotes in seconds, rather than days.

Ki is proudly the biggest global algorithmic insurance carrier. It is the fastest growing syndicate in the Lloyd's of London market, and the first ever to make $100m in profit in 3 years.

Ki's teams have varied backgrounds and work together in an agile, cross-functional way to build the very best experience for its customers. Ki has big ambitions but needs more excellent minds to challenge the status quo and help it reach new horizons.

What you will be working on
We are recruiting for a Senior Agile Delivery Manager to join our team. In this role, you'll be shaping the future of algorithmic underwriting - helping our squads to deliver amazing product capabilities and experiences for our users. Bringing your experience of working across delivery management or technical project management, whilst leading multiple teams through the full product life cycle, you'll need to be experienced in agile frameworks and able to develop high-performing, cross-functional teams using a servant leadership approach.

You will help our teams coordinate around challenging deadlines and releases, collaborating with different stakeholders from across our organisation. You'll need to be comfortable spinning plates and dealing with complex problems but also have a coaching mindset, helping our teams to help themselves and improve how we get stuff done, with the ability to tailor your style to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Our teams work using different agile methodologies like Scrum and Kanban, to deliver new features or enhancements to our partner brokers. This could be developments on our external API, a new experience in our broker platform for a new insurance product, or an enhancement to our algorithm.

Our culture
Inclusion & Diversity is at the heart of our business at Ki. We recognise that diversity in age, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, physical ability, thought, and social background bring richness to our working environment. No matter who you are, where you're from, how you think, or who you love, we believe you should be you.

You'll get a highly competitive remuneration and benefits package. This is kept under constant review to make sure it stays relevant. We understand the power of saying thank you and take time to acknowledge and reward extraordinary effort by teams or individuals.
