About the job:
We are looking to hire a senior consultant whose role will primarily be focused on supporting our insurer and reinsurer clients with outwards reinsurance transformation projects, as well as helping drive business development and thought leadership on this topic. You will be working in a dedicated, international team of outwards reinsurance experts, working in close collaboration with Synpulse’s Outwards Reinsurance Lead for the UK & Europe, who is based in London. Synpulse’s outwards reinsurance service offering can be found here, which describes the typical engagements we lead on behalf of our clients, who are based in the London Market and internationally. Where system implementation is part of our core service offering, your role will likely involve working in collaboration with Synpulse’s ecosystem partners. We are looking for you to:
- Play a pivotal role in the growth of our outwards reinsurance practice through thought leadership, knowledge sharing and upskilling the wider team.
- Support in delivering outwards reinsurance transformation projects for leading global (re)insurance clients. This may include capturing requirements, designing to-be processes, facilitating workshops, data analysis and reconciliation, liaising between client and vendor, supporting PM/PMO with project management, communication and governance, training clients on a new system, and other responsibilities as required.
- Maintain a good overview of the market for outwards reinsurance systems and develop in depth knowledge of how to use specific partner systems, including understanding the underlying data model.
- Contribute to outwards reinsurance business development and thought leadership. This may involve organising or attending a market event, conducting research, writing a whitepaper, preparing proposals, helping manage the pipeline/specific accounts or other activities depending on both Synpulse’s business needs and what you are most interested in being involved in.
About you:
- You hold a bachelor's degree.
- Ideally, you have a minimum of 3 years’ professional work experience in a consulting, (re)insurance industry, or (re)insurance technology vendor role, with a good understanding of reinsurance and the London Market.

Why us:
- A unique opportunity to shape the UK office through participating in internal initiatives (CSR, DE&I, recruitment, marketing).
- Engage in the four-week New Employee School, a comprehensive on-boarding program designed to perfectly prepare you for client projects, integrate you into the team, and offer time and resources to broaden your skillset while orienting yourself to Synpulse’s values and methods
- Continual and comprehensive learning and development through our Academy Program.
