Life and Annuity and Group and Voluntary Benefits carriers are at the same inflection point from different directions — both modernizing core platforms, evolving operating models, and deploying AI and intelligent agents to unlock capabilities that legacy architectures cannot support. For L&A carriers, the opportunity centers on policy administration transformation, digital core modernization, and the data foundations that enable intelligent operations at scale. For Group and Voluntary Benefits carriers, the opportunity concentrates in the value streams where agentic AI creates the most measurable impact — shielding complexity from the experience while driving speed, scale, and new performance outcomes across underwriting speed and win propensity, integrated absence and disability claims management, guided enrollment and onboarding, and data exchange across a complex broker and employer ecosystem.

Role Summary

Life, Annuity and Group Insurance Management Consulting Senior Managers lead the transformation, integrating business, operating model, digital core, data, AI, organizational change, and delivery. They direct multidisciplinary teams, resolve cross-workstream dependencies, and maintain accountability for a coherent solution and successful execution.

In this role, you will partner with senior carrier executives across either market to shape the transformation agenda, mobilize large-scale business and technology programs, and deliver outcomes that show up in loss ratios, operational efficiency, growth, and the experience of customers and distribution partners across both markets.

Responsibilities

• Partner with senior business and technology executives to define transformation objectives and priorities with concentration around agentic patterns and the data that enables it
• Shape the vision, value case, roadmap, governance, and mobilization approach
• Align business, operations, architecture, data, engineering, risk, change, and delivery teams
• Oversee operating model, workflow, digital core, data, and AI design
• Guide executive decisions by framing options, dependencies, risks, and trade-offs
• Establish clear decisions, owners, sequencing, measures, and value-realization plans
• Lead client relationships, solution shaping, proposals, and expansion opportunities
• Lead and develop cross-functional consulting teams, maintaining accountability for quality and client impact
• Travel up to 80% based on client and project requirements

Basic Qualifications

• 10+ years of management consulting, carrier, or business and technology transformation experience, including experience within Life Insurance or Annuities
• 5+ years of experience leading complex enterprise transformation, modernization, or platform-enabled change programs
• 3+ years of experience advising senior business and technology stakeholders and leading multidisciplinary teams
• Bachelor's degree

Preferred Qualifications

• For Life and Annuity candidates, deep knowledge of the Life & Annuity value chain across business and technology
• For Group and Voluntary benefits, similar knowledge and depth, considering case underwriting, absence management, disability, and voluntary claims as areas of concentration
• 1-3 years of experience on where AI and underlying data products drive meaningful value across the value chain with clear industry challenges and how value is unlocked -- beyond just the technology, looking across new experiences, reinvented processes, and the talent implications
• Knowledge of policy administration and digital core modernization, including workflow, data, integration, digital, risk, and change considerations
• Familiarity with Life & Annuity platforms such as ALIP, OIPA, Sapiens, FAST, Fadata, EIS, Majesco, or comparable technologies
• For Group, familiarity with platforms such as EIS, FINEOS, Majesco, Vitech, and rating platforms like FJA and Global IQX
• Strong executive presence and ability to influence senior business and technology leaders
• Track record of leading large-scale transformation programs and multidisciplinary teams
• Commercial acumen demonstrated through solution shaping, proposals, and account growth
• Carrier background and relevant industry, agile, product, architecture, or cloud credentials
• For Group Benefits, understand the synergies to Brokers, benefits administration, and enrollment platforms
