About the role
About the Company
Our client is a seven-person, venture-backed AI company building the agent layer for commercial insurance. Its unified workspace and AI agents reduce the manual effort required to place insurance risks. The team is already working with three of the ten largest insurance brokers globally and has raised an $8.5M pre-seed round.
About the Role
Join as a Founding Deployment Strategist to own pilot deployments from initial discovery through adoption and expansion. Work directly with the founders, customers and engineers as one of the first dedicated deployment hires. This full-time role is onsite five days a week in Vauxhall, London, with regular travel to broker offices across the UK. The team works an intensive schedule, typically around 9am to 9pm, with additional work when deployments require it.
What You Will Do
• Manage one or two pilot deployments in parallel, owning client communication, data gathering and stakeholder management.
• Translate complex broker workflows and business needs into clear requirements for engineers.
• Help pilots become full deployments and expand the product into additional business lines.
• Run structured meetings, respond to clients and maintain progress in ambiguous conditions.
• Build AI-assisted demos and prototypes and turn deployment lessons into a repeatable playbook.
Requirements
• Typically two to six years as a deployment strategist or implementation consultant at a high-growth startup, an MBB consultant, or an investment banker at a leading bank. Startup deployment experience is the highest priority.
• A bachelor’s degree from a leading international university. Science, engineering or mathematics is a plus.
• A record of implementing or deploying software in large enterprises.
• Hands-on fluency with AI tools such as Claude, including building and demonstrating useful prototypes.
• Strong analytical structure, interpersonal judgment and senior stakeholder management.
• Ability to work onsite five days a week in London and travel to UK clients.
• Early-stage forward deployed experience and relevant experience at a major UK insurance broker are pluses.
Tools
AI tools such as Claude and Claude Code for prototypes and demonstrations, alongside enterprise insurance workflows. This is a deployment and implementation role; a particular software engineering language is not required.
Benefits
£70,000-£150,000 GBP base salary plus competitive equity. Visa sponsorship and transfers are supported. Company-paid relocation is not confirmed. Flights and accommodation are covered for the final in-person interview.
Why Join
Shape how AI products are deployed inside major insurance brokers, with direct founder access and meaningful ownership. Build a deployment function and develop a repeatable playbook while learning alongside a small, ambitious team.
