What Is the Opportunity?

This role is here to grow the business. You'll explore incremental or new revenue opportunities from across our products and propositions, then shape and help build the things that get us there.

You'll start with getting close to the market. You'll talk to customers and brokers, and work out why they buy: what they're trying to solve, which benefits actually matter, and where our own processes are quietly costing us business. You'll pair that with the data, pulling apart customer behaviour, pipeline and market numbers to see what's really happening rather than what everyone assumes. Our data isn't always tidy, so you'll need to be comfortable getting into it, structuring it and finding the signals yourself.

Mapping a journey properly, designing an experience that is good in practice internally and externally, building a case that stands up to challenge: these are skills we want you to bring and to raise across the team. If you love the feeling of delivery, seeing the numbers change as much as solving how, this is a great fit for you. You'll be incredibly curious and creative, but as comfortable with a revenue target as a customer conversation. Signals we love also include if you've worked at start-up or scale-up pace and can navigate a large organisation and foster collaboration.
