• Monitoring project performance and ensuring deliverables meet defined quality standards.

• Preparing and presenting status updates to senior management and key stakeholders.

• Working with vendors and external service providers to ensure successful implementation.

• Reviewing completed projects to identify lessons learned and improve internal processes.

• Bachelor’s degree in IT, Project Management, or a related field.

• 3–5 years of experience managing IT or technology-related projects.

• Experience within the insurance sector is strongly preferred.

• Strong understanding of Agile and Waterfall methodologies.

• Hands-on experience with tools such as MS Project, Jira, or similar platforms.

• Confident stakeholder management skills across technical and non-technical teams.

• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.
