Manager, Insurance, Business Transformation

London

Are you passionate about the future of the insurance industry? Do you want to apply your expertise and analytical skillset to help insurers, reinsurers and brokers solve complex, strategic problems? Do you thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where you can drive meaningful change?

The Opportunity

Specialty and General Insurance marketplaces are on an exciting, complex, and fast-moving transformation journey, where incumbent and new market participants are responding to the rapid emergence of new technologies, market cycle volatility, market-wide modernisation, and evolving regulatory requirements to drive competitive advantage.

Our Insurance Business Transformation team is at the centre of this modernisation agenda, helping clients make more informed decisions on how to optimise their businesses, drive growth, realise efficiencies and improve their customer journeys. This could be re-designing or simplifying operating models, improving processes, implementing data and technology-driven solutions - often guiding a client through the lifecycle of their transformation programme.

Drawing on its reputation for providing deep industry experience and leading consulting services to the Insurance market - and to support our clients in successfully executing ambitious transformation agendas - EY is now expanding its Insurance Business Transformation team.

The team's purpose is to create a lasting, positive impact on the Insurance industry through an inclusive, diverse, and connected team of driven individuals, with the courage to lead and inspire those around them. To enable this purpose, we are seeking exceptional, passionate individuals with proven experience in Specialty and / or General Insurance markets to join our team.

Whether you're an experienced consultant or an ambitious industry professional interested in being part of a growing team where your contribution is valued and your work makes a difference, we want to hear from you.

Your key responsibilities

As a Manager, you will be responsible for leading delivery teams in designing and delivering strategic and operational initiatives for our clients. You will deliver large-scale projects, manage senior client stakeholders, line manage the team, manage engagement risks and drive outputs. You will also be responsible for supporting the Insurance practice in business development initiatives and act as a mentor to junior colleagues.

To qualify for the role, you must have some or all of the following:

• Previous experience in insurance consulting or comparable experience driving transformation initiatives within Specialty and / or General insurance
• An understanding of how market trends and business challenges are affecting insurers, reinsurers, brokers and other market participants within Specialty or General Insurance markets
• Strong track record in managing project delivery and producing high quality outputs to tight deadlines
• Proven ability to lead teams and develop / upskill junior colleagues
• Experience in supporting change and transformation initiatives and an understanding of end-to-end business driven change through the full lifecycle (discovery, business requirements definition, design and implementation)
• Previous experience relating to one or more of the following: target operating models, process-re-engineering, cost transformation, regulatory change, strategy, and technology transformation
• Excellent client stakeholder management skills and the ability to build relationships
• A team player attitude; openly supporting, encouraging and sharing knowledge with colleagues and clients
• Previous experience within specific insurance functional areas, e.g. Underwriting, Claims, Actuarial, is also beneficial but not essential to the role
• A commitment to actively engaging with our DE&I agenda and championing social purpose-driven change
