About the Company
Head of Business Development — Insurance SaaS
UK-based | Remote-first | London hub | High-growth Insurtech | Senior commercial leadership opportunity
A high-growth Insurtech SaaS business is looking for an ambitious Head of Business Development to accelerate expansion across the UK insurance market.
The company provides innovative technology that helps insurance organisations work more effectively and make better commercial decisions. With strong momentum in both the UK and US, and a Series A funding round approaching, this is an opportunity to join at a pivotal point in its growth journey.
About the Role
The opportunity
This is a senior, hands-on new-business role for a proven SaaS seller who understands the insurance sector and wants to build toward broader sales leadership.
Reporting directly to the Chief Commercial Officer, you will lead business development across the UK, opening strategic opportunities, developing senior stakeholder relationships and converting market demand into sustainable revenue growth.
There is a clear progression path: the successful person will be expected to step into a Global Head of Sales role within the next 12 months as the commercial function scales.
