    Product Manager - Travel Insurance

    • Posted April 23, 2026
    • £50000 - £65000 per annum
    • Edinburgh Glasgow Newcastle
    • Permanent

    Product Manager – Travel Insurance

    Central Belt Scotland (Ideally 2 days a week but open to candidates across the UK that can come in on a monthly basis)

    Up to £65k

    This is a standout opportunity to take ownership of a fast‑growing travel insurance proposition at a pivotal moment. The business is moving from a largely outsourced operating model to bringing significantly more capability in-house, offering real product ownership, influence, and long-term growth.

    You’ll join at a point of genuine transformation, playing a central role in reshaping how travel insurance products are designed, governed and optimised. With minimal hand-holding available, this role is designed for someone who thrives on autonomy, pace, and accountability.

    You’ll take end-to-end ownership of the travel insurance product portfolio, working closely with underwriters, administrators, aggregators and internal stakeholders to drive innovation, compliance, and commercial performance.

    The role is deliberately product-focused, distinct from operational outcomes such as claims or call centre metrics and suited to someone who truly understands how insurance products are built, managed and evolved day to day.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Owning and optimising a portfolio of travel insurance products, including direct and aggregator-distributed offerings
    • Leading product development, enhancement and lifecycle management
    • Working closely with underwriters to design, approve and implement product changes
    • Supporting the transition to a new in‑house operating model, including setting up and managing new contracts and supplier relationships
    • Conducting market and competitor analysis to drive innovation and differentiation
    • Acting as a product subject matter expert across the wider business, including senior stakeholder conversations
    • Contributing to longer-term strategy, succession planning and capability build as the product function grows

    What We’re Looking For

    • Strong experience as a Product Manager within general insurance (travel insurance highly desirable)
    • Deep understanding of how insurance products work (coverage, wording, pricing inputs, governance and ongoing management)
    • Experience working with underwriters, third-party administrators and aggregators
    • Comfortable operating at pace in a changing environment
    • Confident engaging at senior level, with the credibility to influence and challenge
    • Ambition to grow into a broader senior leadership role over time

    This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business where travel insurance is their fastest-growing product, you will have real ownership & influence and an opportunity to shape a product function.

    If you’re driven, collaborative, and ready for your next big challenge, apply now!

    Reasonable Adjustments:

    Respect and equality are core values to us. We are proud of the diverse and inclusive community we have built, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and perspectives. Our success is driven by our people, united by the spirit of partnership to deliver the best resourcing solutions for our clients.

      • Shape contributions, charges, fund ranges, and default/lifestyle strategies
      • Monitor AUM growth, retention, and value delivery
      • Lead product governance, Consumer Duty, and VfM activity
      • Act as the internal SME for pension products

      • Proven experience with UK pension products (workplace, SIPP, or retirement income)
      • Strong understanding of pensions, investments, and fee structures
      • Solid knowledge of FCA regulation and Consumer Duty
      • Experience owning or shaping product strategy and lifecycle

      This is a hands‑on, high‑impact contract suited to an experienced pensions product specialist who can hit the ground running.
