The opportunity
I'm working with a well established private health insurer on a piece of work that sits inside a broader multi-year program.
They need a genuine generalist PM, someone comfortable moving between technology, operational and regulatory workstreams without needing to be handheld through any of them.
This is not a role where you inherit a neatly packaged project plan.
You'll be picking up work that is already in motion, getting your arms around it quickly, and bringing structure where it's currently a bit loose.
What you'll be doing
Owning end to end delivery across a defined workstream, from planning through to advantages realisation
Managing the usual PM disciplines properly: scope, schedule, budget, risks, issues and dependencies
Working closely with business stakeholders across claims, membership, provider and operations functions
Coordinating vendors and internal technology teams to keep delivery on track
Reporting into program leadership and steering committees with clear, honest status
Navigating the compliance and regulatory considerations that come with operating in the health insurance space
What you'll need




Solid project management track record delivering in complex, matrixed environments
Private health insurance experience is non negotiable here.
You need to understand how the industry actually works, the regulatory environment it operates in, and the systems that underpin it
Genuine generalist capability.
Comfortable across technology delivery, process change and business readiness rather than specialised in only one
Strong stakeholder management, particularly with senior business owners who have day jobs and limited patience for delivery theatre
Experience across both waterfall and agile ways of working, and the judgement to know which is appropriate
Excellent written and verbal communication, especially around status reporting and escalation
What's on offer
An initial 6 month contract at $**** to $**** per day, working on a program with multi-year funding behind it.
Extensions are the norm rather than the exception on this account.
Hybrid working arrangement with flexibility around office days with 2 a week expected.
