Project Manager – Product Development

George, Western Cape (Office-based)

At Dotsure, we don’t just build insurance products, we create experiences that customers actually love. We’re looking for a Project Manager who’s ready to take the wheel and drive our Product Development projects from idea to launch (and beyond).

You’ll be steering the rollout of new products, feature enhancements, and strategic initiatives, making sure every project is delivered on time, in scope, and within budget. You’ll work hand-in-hand with dynamic teams across Pricing, Legal, Compliance, Claims, Operations, and Systems, keeping everyone aligned and focused on what matters most: delivering results.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Define and manage project scopes, objectives, deliverables, and timelines with precision.
• Develop robust project plans, budgets, and resource schedules that keep delivery on track.
• Lead full lifecycle project management — from concept and design to testing, rollout, and post-implementation review.
• Conduct UAT (user acceptance testing) and ensure seamless product launches.
• Drive clear, structured communication across all stakeholders and departments.
• Identify risks early, manage change effectively, and keep leadership informed through proactive reporting.
• Maintain project documentation and reporting that meets PMO and compliance standards.

What We’re Looking For

• Matric (Grade 12) – Essential
• Formal Project Management qualification (PMP, PRINCE2, or equivalent) – Essential
• A tertiary qualification in Project Management, Business, or related field – Preferred
• 3+ year’s experience managing multi-stakeholder projects (insurance or financial services = major plus)
• Experience with product or system development projects
• Strong communication, coordination, and leadership skills
• Analytical and detail-driven mindset — you see what others miss
• Proactive, adaptable, and calm under pressure
• Familiarity with insurance product design and rollout is advantageous

Why join Dotsure?

Because here, innovation meets impact. You’ll work with passionate, future-focused teams who believe in challenging norms, simplifying insurance, and delivering products that make a real difference. We move fast, think bold, and collaborate hard, all while keeping things human. If managing high-impact projects, collaborating with sharp minds, and delivering products that wow excites you, we’d love to meet you.

The position will be filled in line with the Dotsure culture, values and Employment Equity policy and plan. Preference will be given to members of designated groups that are under-represented.
