Required Qualifications:

  • 3-4 years of experience in major consulting companies.
  • 1-2 years of in-house experience in life insurance, with practical exposure to agency distribution, transformation, or related business initiatives.
  • Demonstrated ability to support transformation initiatives from problem definition and planning through implementation, governance, and value realization.
  • Strong strategic and analytical capabilities, with a structured approach to problem-solving.
  • Proven project management discipline, including milestone tracking, dependency management, risk escalation, and coordination across multiple stakeholders.
  • Excellent executive communication skills, with experience developing senior-ready presentations, business reviews, dashboards, and decision materials.
  • Ability to operate independently, manage multiple priorities, and maintain momentum in an ambiguous, fast-changing regional environment.
  • Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the ability to build constructive relationships across regional functions and markets.

When you join our team:

  • We'll empower you to learn and grow the career you want.
  • We'll recognize and support you in a flexible environment where well-being and inclusion are more than just words.
  • As part of our global team, we'll support you in shaping the future you want to see.
