Product Manager, Travel Insurance

YOU DON’T JUST MANAGE PRODUCTS — YOU PROTECT JOURNEYS.

The Opportunity
Are you passionate about protecting people when it matters most? At AMA, our travel insurance products exist to ensure members have the right coverage and peace of mind every time they travel — from a weekend road trip to an international adventure. As AMA's Product Manager, Travel Insurance, you'll be accountable for the full lifecycle and commercial performance of AMA's travel insurance portfolio, including Travel Medical and Trip Cancellation products across individual, multi-trip annual, and group travel plan types.

This is a strategic, hands-on role where you’ll own product strategy, financial performance, digital funnel growth, in-centre sales results across both Travel and Insurance Agency lines, and the end-to-end vendor relationship with Orion.

You’ll be the central point of accountability for member-facing travel insurance outcomes — helping protect AMA members as they explore the world by ensuring they have access to appropriate coverage, clear product information, and a seamless purchase experience.

Working cross-functionally with Marketing, Digital Experience, Finance, Centre Performance, and external partners, you’ll help deliver sustainable portfolio growth while keeping member value at the heart of every decision.
