As Senior Product Manager, Marine Insurance, you will own the Marine Insurance product end to end, from strategy and roadmap through to first release and go-to-market. Working closely with the Lead Product Manager – Maritime & Logistics, you will build a new product offering that brings together Kpler's vessel, ownership, port, and trade-flow data to address critical challenges across the marine insurance value chain.
Your initial focus will be on building an exposure screening product for insured fleets, enabling customers to load their insured fleet, attach policy values, and continuously monitor exposure and accumulation against the live global fleet picture.
This is a high-impact opportunity to build a new product category from the ground up. You will work directly with underwriters, brokers, P&I clubs, claims and exposure-management teams, as well as Product, Engineering, Data, Sales, and Marketing, to ensure the product solves real customer problems and establishes Kpler as a trusted source of marine insurance intelligence.
The role is ideal for an experienced product leader who is comfortable operating in an ambiguous, early-stage environment and has a track record of taking B2B data, analytics, or SaaS products from concept through to customer adoption.
