Project Manager (m/f/d) – Building a B2B Insurance Portal | 90% Remote | From 2027 | 24 Months

Project overview

For our client, a large insurance company, we are looking for an experienced freelance project manager (m/f/d) to build a digital corporate client portal.

Note: This request is exclusively for self-employed freelancers. Permanent employees of consulting firms or other service providers cannot be considered.

The portal will allow companies to centrally manage their insurance affairs in the future – from an overview of policies and insurance documents to digital service processes for fleets, buildings, and other commercial risks.

We are looking for a project manager who has successfully managed a comparable project and understands the practical requirements of corporate clients. You will combine in-depth insurance knowledge with the ability to structure functional requirements and manage implementation through to launch.

Responsibilities

• Project leadership for the development of the corporate client portal – from functional conception and technical implementation to launch and handover to operations
• Structuring and managing project scope, deadlines, budget, resources, quality, and dependencies
• Developing and validating requirements together with corporate clients, insurance departments, and other stakeholders
• Designing cross-line-of-business customer processes, e.g., for policy overviews, change notifications, proof of insurance, document management, and claims notifications
• Consideration of different user groups and company structures, as well as suitable role and authorization concepts
• Development of a prioritized implementation plan with a clearly defined initial feature set and further expansion stages
• Managing collaboration between business departments, product management, UX, IT architecture, development, and external implementation partners
• Coordinating integration with existing contract, claims, and document systems in collaboration with technical leads
• Preparing decisions, active risk and stakeholder management, and regular reporting to clients and steering committees
• Planning and managing tests, functional acceptances, and rollout
