- Experience in one or more areas such as underwriting, claims, policy administration/core platforms, insurance operations, operating model, data/AI or finance transformation.
- Experience independently owning analyses, deliverables or substantial project workstreams, with increasing responsibility for client interactions.
- Experience with insurance technology or platforms such as Guidewire, Duck Creek, Majesco or comparable technologies is valuable.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to structure ambiguous problems and turn findings into practical recommendations.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to develop clear, compelling client materials.
- Confidence working with client stakeholders and multidisciplinary teams in complex delivery environments.
- A hands-on and collaborative approach, with the willingness to get into the detail and take ownership alongside the team.
