Role Overview

You will act as BJAK’s on-the-ground leader for both business and product initiatives, responsible for building strategic insurer partnerships, driving product growth, and executing commercial strategies that deliver measurable revenue impact.

Key Responsibilities

Partnership Acquisition & Activation

  • Identify, prospect, qualify, negotiate, and close strategic insurer and ecosystem partnerships within aggressive timelines.

  • Own the full partnership lifecycle — from initial outreach and relationship building through negotiation, onboarding, integration, and go-live.

  • Drive fast-market-entry partnerships and minimize activation timelines through proactive stakeholder alignment.

Pipeline Ownership & Execution

  • Build, own, and manage a robust and visible pipeline of insurer and strategic partners in the UK market.

  • Maintain disciplined follow-ups, accurate CRM hygiene, and clear reporting to ensure consistent deal progression and closures.

  • Operate with urgency — no stalled deals, no loose ends.

Commercial Negotiation & Deal Closure

  • Lead commercial negotiations with strong judgment on pricing, underwriting alignment, and partnership economics.

  • Collaborate closely with legal, product, technology, operations, and compliance teams to finalize agreements and accelerate execution.

  • Align internal and external stakeholders to ensure smooth onboarding and timely go-lives.

Revenue & Product Delivery

  • Own monthly revenue, policy, activation, and product adoption targets.

  • Drive partner productivity, volume growth, and KPI performance post go-live.

  • Identify cross-sell, upsell, and product optimization opportunities to convert partnerships into scalable revenue streams.

Strategic Leadership & Market Advisory

  • Represent BJAK in meetings, calls, and communications with partners, regulators, and stakeholders as required.

  • Facilitate fast decision-making and execution across internal teams and external partners.

Operational Excellence & Governance

  • Proactively identify, escalate, and resolve partner or execution issues while maintaining high standards of service and delivery.

  • Contribute to strategic planning, policy development, and operational improvements alongside senior leadership.

  • Support resource and capacity planning, including input on staffing and operational priorities aligned with business growth.

  • Communicate clearly, concisely, and accurately across all stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Highly self-driven, proactive, and accountable. Initiative is expected, not instruction.

  • Permanent residency in the UK and deep understanding of local insurance market dynamics and regulations.

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in insurance, technology and/or fintech, with strong commercial, product, and negotiation capability.

  • Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

Why Join BJAK

  • Play a defining role in our UK market expansion

  • Work directly with senior leadership on strategy and execution

  • Build insurer partnerships and products that impact millions of users

  • Competitive, performance-driven compensation with strong upside
