About the Role

This role offers a challenging variety of work and excellent opportunities to make positive contributions to S&R and CA. The role requires experience reporting work with a proven track record of process improvement, as the successful individual will play a key role in enhancing the efficiency, scalability, and robustness of our processes. The initial focus of the role will be to assess, redesign, and implement improvements to existing processes, addressing areas of operational complexity, manual effort, control weaknesses, and scalability challenges. Working closely with actuarial, finance, operations, technology, and business stakeholders, the successful candidate will drive tangible improvements that enhance quality, efficiency, and user experience. There will be additional opportunities to support the team's future readiness agenda by helping design and implement new processes and operating models to support novel and increasingly complex S&R transactions across multiple jurisdictions. This includes ensuring processes are scalable, fit-for-purpose, and capable of supporting future business growth, regulatory requirements, and strategic objectives. Given the fixed-term nature of the role, the successful candidate will be expected to rapidly gain an understanding of the team's processes, establish strong stakeholder relationships, and deliver demonstrable improvements early in the engagement, while helping build capabilities that support the team's future needs. The role offers a unique opportunity to make a significant and lasting impact by improving how the team operates today while helping shape how it will support the business in the future.
