You'll report to: Jo McGlynn, Portfolio Delivery Manager Team: Delivery Location: Hybrid – based in our London office (Monument), with an expectation to be in the office two days per week. Day Rate: Up to £900 Contract Type: 6-month contract, with the possibility of extension (Outside IR35) Start Date: As soon as possible Visa Sponsorship: Not available The Programme Manager Role As we continue our mission to be the market-leading underwriting software platform for agile insurers, we are excited to kick off the search for a Programme Manager. This pivotal contract role (initially 6 months) reflects the growth and complexity of our client base, requiring a strategic leader to oversee multiple customer delivery projects that collectively deliver significant business outcomes. The Programme Manager will play a critical role in driving value for our customers by managing business outcomes, governance, and delivery excellence. You’ll work closely with executive stakeholders-both internally and externally-to ensure your delivery portfolio remains aligned to customer goals, commercial priorities, and Send’s wider strategic objectives. In addition to operating at a strategic level, this is a hands-on delivery role. You’ll take an active role in day-to-day project management, ensuring the successful execution of initiatives by managing team workloads, removing delivery blockers, and maintaining momentum across all workstreams. You’ll balance long-term strategic planning with the practical realities of daily delivery to ensure outcomes are achieved efficiently and effectively. This role is ideal for someone with a proven track record of leading programmes or portfolio’s of work, managing multiple concurrent projects and teams, and influencing senior stakeholders in complex delivery environments. If you’re an experienced Delivery Manager, Consultant, or Programme Lead, we’d love to hear from you. About Send In 2017, Send was founded by Andy Moss, Ben Huckel, and Matt McGrillis with a vision to reshape and enhance the underwriting process for commercial insurers-combining advanced technology with deep industry expertise. By 2019, we had delivered a commercial and specialty Underwriting Workbench for a leading global insurer-one of the UK’s top five composite insurers and a major FTSE 100 carrier. This solution streamlined operations, improved efficiency, and enabled forward visibility. In 2022, we won three industry awards for the Underwriting Workbench and raised $10 million in Series A funding to support our expansion in the UK and US. The following year, in 2023, we launched Smart Submission, a stand-alone component of the Underwriting Workbench, and were named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide P&C Intelligent Underwriting Workbench Applications Vendor Assessment. In 2024, we were recognised as a Top Provider in the Datos P&C Workbench report and named a Leader in Celent’s Underwriting Workbench reports for both North America and Global Markets. Our vision is to be the market-leading underwriting software platform for agile carriers. #loveunderwriting Our Funding From 2017 to 2022, we bootstrapped our growth journey, building a profitable and stable company. In November 2022, following a year of strong customer and team growth, we secured $10 million in Series A funding to accelerate our expansion across the UK and US, as well as to further enhance our product development. We’re proud to have the support and expertise of our investors, Mercia and Breega. We are now preparing for our Series B round and are excited about the growth acceleration this will enable. The Send Team Over the past two years, Send has experienced significant growth, expanding our team by over 50% to more than 100 people. At the start of 2024, our team was primarily based in the UK. Since then, we’ve taken major steps toward building a global presence, with team members now located across the US, India and Ireland-all working collaboratively toward our vision of becoming the market-leading underwriting software platform for agile insurers.
