About the role

This is an Insurance industry client-facing role for which you will be responsible for all aspects of the M&A, client portfolio onboarding and general data migration work stream.

• Analyse data quality and integrity, implementing measures to cleanse and validate data as needed.
• Identify gaps between source applications (either through experience and/or the data) and the target product, flagging these to the Product Owners.
• Develop and maintain comprehensive and meticulous documentation for data migration processes, ensuring transparency and knowledge transfer.
• Monitor and report on the progress of data migration activities.
• Record, track and troubleshoot issues and provide issue resolution and alternative solution paths.
• Define/measure success criteria by working with all parties on validation techniques such as the testing of migrated data and reconciliations.

About you

• Good understanding of London Insurance Market, Claims Management & Adjusting.
• Previous experience of successful data migration (preferably in the London Insurance Market - although not essential).
• Proficient in data mapping, transformation, and validation processes.
• Understanding of the importance of the data collection and reporting required for Insurance and Adjusting.
• Experience of dealing with end users and technical support teams.
• Good organisation change management skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities concurrently.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional team environment.
