  • Strategic Finance Leadership: Partner directly with the CFO, executive peers, and parent-company leadership to drive financial strategy, capital management, and balance sheet alignment.
  • Finance Change & Transformation: Executive sponsor for finance modernization initiatives, including enterprise ledger system upgrades (M22/ERP integration), target operating model shifts, and accounting standard updates.
  • M&A & Integration Support: Oversee the financial onboarding, process alignment, and reporting integration of acquired platforms, portfolios, and transitional teams.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 12+ years of progressive finance leadership experience within the life or annuity insurance/reinsurance industry.
  • Technical Mastery: Deep expertise in complex insurance financial reporting (US GAAP and STAT) and regulatory frameworks.
  • Change Leadership: Proven track record leading large-scale finance transformation, system implementations, and post-merger integrations.
  • Credentials: Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA, CA, or equivalent professional designation required.
