About this Role
We are looking for a Founding Deployment Strategist with 2, 6 years of experience to own end-to-end pilot deployments for a stealth-stage AI company transforming the $3T commercial insurance market. You'll be the first dedicated deployment hire, working directly with the founders to get our product live inside the world's largest insurance brokers, managing 1, 2 pilots at a time, translating business needs for engineers, and turning what you learn on the ground into the playbook for how we scale everywhere else.
What you need
- Experience as a deployment strategist at a high-growth startup, MBB consultant (BA to Manager level), or investment banker at a top-tier bank, startup deployment experience is the #1 priority
- Exceptional soft skills and high EQ, you must be likable, structured, and able to manage senior enterprise stakeholders without losing the room
- Strong structuring and analytical skills to operate under extreme ambiguity; consulting-style problem-solving ability is tested in the interview process
- AI native, comfortable building with tools like Claude/Cursor and able to demo products; hackathon experience or personal AI projects are strong signals
- Willing to work on-site 5 days/week in London (Vauxhall) with high intensity (~9am, 9pm), plus regular travel to broker offices across the UK
What will you be doing?
Managing all non-engineering work on 1, 2 active pilot deployments in parallel, including all client communication, data gathering, and stakeholder management
Collaborating closely with engineers to translate complex broker workflows and business needs into product requirements
Driving pilots to convert into full deployments and expanding into additional lines of business within each account
Responding to client emails, running meetings with structure, and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks in high-ambiguity conditions
Building demos and prototypes using AI tools (e.g. Claude) to support client conversations and sales calls
