About Kota
Kota is the only broker that runs employee benefits for you. Combining health cover, pensions, protection, spend cards, and flexible perks with HRIS integrations, Kota replaces spreadsheets, manual admin, and once-a-year broker calls with one connected system - backed by a team of benefits experts behind every recommendation.
Kota powers benefits for more than 100,000 employees, across companies from fast-growing scale-ups to global HR and payroll platforms.
Investors include Eurazeo, EQT Ventures, Northzone, Frontline Ventures, 9Yards, and Plug and Play Ventures. The Kota team includes experts who previously led at global financial services firms and fintechs such as Airwallex, Stripe, Bolt, Revolut - as well as insurance and benefits providers such as Aviva, Allianz, AXA, and Smart Pension.
The Role
Kota Embed powers the benefits layer inside other platforms, mostly employers of record and HR platforms with employees across multiple countries. Partner launches and growth require best-in-class delivery: integration build, benefits set up market by market, data migration, seamless end-customer product experience, and support readiness.
We're hiring an Implementation Manager to own those launches end to end, plus the renewals that follow. You'll run around five at once working alongside Embed Sales and Account Management teams.
This is a delivery role with real teeth. Partners tell their own clients when benefits are going live based on what we tell them, so the dates matter and the person who owns them has to be able to hold a line and change it early when it needs changing.
What You'll Do
Own new partner launches from signature to live: scope, plan, cadence, dependencies, blockers, the lot
Run roughly five concurrent projects, and know which one needs you this week
Align product, engineering, benefits and commercial around the same plan and the same dates
Define what go-live actually means for each launch, and get everyone using the same definition
Chase blockers rather than report them, including with people who don't work for you
Join partner calls alongside the Account Executive or Account Manager, and lead the delivery half of them
Keep internal tracking in Asana and the partner-facing view in sync
Spot a slipping date early and say so, to us and to the partner
What We're Looking For
Experience running multiple customer-facing implementations at once rather than one large programme
Either technical depth, comfortable with APIs and integration conversations, or a strong data and analytics background. We're open on which
A track record of getting things delivered through people who don't report to you
Calm and process-driven, with the judgement to know when the process is in the way
Comfortable in front of customers, including when the news isn't good
Able to hold a date, defend it, and change it early rather than late
Highly organised and proactive - enough to run five things properly rather than five things approximately
Comfortable with pace and with processes that are still being built
Benefits, HR tech, payments, fintech, cross-border or migration experience is a plus. You don't need to know anything about insurance or pensions before you start.
