About the role
- The role works hand-in-glove with the Aviva UK PMO, directing group project resources as an extension of the US program while owning the US delivery outcome end to end.
- It is a founding position with direct executive exposure, and it will grow - including one to two direct reports - as the program scales.
Responsibilities
- Own the integrated program plan across every system implementation and integration workstream, from vendor kickoff through production cutover and stabilization.
- Drive each vendor implementation to its committed milestones, owning the master schedule, the critical path, and the dependencies between workstreams that no single vendor sees.
- Lead delivery through a matrixed organization - vendor implementation teams, Aviva UK PMO resources, and internal stakeholders - holding every party accountable to the plan this leader owns.
- Own program-level decisions on sequencing, scope trade-offs, and cutover readiness, escalating to the Head of Technology with a recommendation, never just a problem.
- Own the traceability of business and product requirements through design, configuration, testing, and go-live - ensuring what the business asked for is what the platform delivers - and own the sign-off process that determines when a system is ready.
- Lead integration and end-to-end testing across systems, owning defect triage, prioritization, and the quality bar for every release.
- Own the program risk register: identify risks early, drive mitigation with named owners and dates, and escalate with candor before risks become issues.
- Own program status as the single, trusted, decision-ready source of truth for the executive team, the UK PMO, and group stakeholders.
- Drive vendor delivery performance, owning milestone acceptance and holding implementation partners commercially accountable to their statements of work in partnership with technology leadership.
- Own the working relationship with the Aviva UK PMO: direct group project resources allocated to the program, align US delivery to group reporting and assurance requirements, and represent the US program in group forums.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, Business, or a related discipline.
- Strong understanding of US Excess and Surplus specialty insurance products and underwriting dynamics.
Nice to have

- Insurance or broader financial services delivery experience strongly preferred
- familiarity with policy administration, claims, rating, or finance system implementations is a significant differentiator.
- Working technical fluency: APIs and integration patterns, event-driven architectures, data migration and conversion, testing strategy, and cloud-based SaaS delivery models.
- Experience directing matrixed or group resources to enterprise programme standards.
- Formal certification (PMP, MSP, SAFe) is welcome
- outcomes matter more
