Portfolio Management Manager

Strategic Portfolio Management Specialist (Pricing)

Kent or Bristol - Hybrid (2 days onsite) Salary: DOE

A large-scale evolution of pricing capability is in motion, with significant investment in systems, modelling sophistication, and portfolio oversight. As part of this shift, we're looking for a commercially astute Portfolio Pricing Management Manager to help steer portfolio performance and translate strategy into measurable results.

This role sits at the centre of commercial decision-making. It's suited to someone who understands how underwriting performance flows through the P&L and enjoys turning insight into practical action. You'll partner closely with Finance and Distribution to shape forecasts, challenge pricing decisions, and ensure initiatives genuinely enhance portfolio value.

This is not a technical model build role. The focus is on managing and optimising the existing book, refining forecasting assumptions, and making confident, commercially grounded decisions.

What you'll be responsible for

- Deliver detailed projections of underwriting and portfolio performance

- Translate strategic objectives into clear, actionable portfolio plans

- Partner with Pricing, Finance and Distribution to drive performance improvement

- Review case-level pricing and underwriting decisions, including discounts and referrals

- Ensure retention initiatives are commercially sound and effectively implemented

- Contribute to new business campaigns and monitor performance against plan

- Provide constructive challenge to senior stakeholders and commercial teams

What we're looking for

- 3-5 years' experience in pricing, underwriting, actuarial or finance roles

- Strong grasp of P&L mechanics and key insurance performance drivers

- Numerate background (actuarial or accountancy qualifications advantageous)

- Experience building forecasts and forward-looking business plans

- Understanding of insurance underwriting dynamics (GI background beneficial)

- Confident communicator with the ability to influence and challenge

- Strategic mindset with a delivery-focused approach

Experience in health insurance is helpful but not essential.

Why consider this role?

- Integral hire within a major transformation programme

- Real influence over portfolio strategy and performance

- High visibility across Finance and Distribution

If you're commercially driven, analytically strong, and ready to influence portfolio performance at a strategic level, this is a chance to make meaningful impact.
