Overview
The Senior Consultant – (Re)Insurance Business Data Analyst is a consulting role focused on helping insurance and reinsurance clients better understand, structure, and use their actuarial, reserving and exposure data to support data driven decision‑making.
The role combines strong insurance/re‑insurance domain knowledge with data analysis and business analysis skills. The consultant will work closely with client stakeholders across multiple domains, including but not limited to actuarial, underwriting, finance, etc. to analyse data structures, clarify business definitions, identify gaps, and translate complex domain concepts into clear, scalable data‑driven solutions such as data products and analytical datasets.
This is not a pure technical or engineering role. It requires confident stakeholder engagement, structured problem‑solving, and the ability to bridge business needs with data and technology teams in a consulting environment.
Key Responsibilities
Demonstrate a strong understanding of actuarial and reserving concepts within insurance or reinsurance, including how these concepts are supported by data.
Act as a business‑facing data analyst, working with client stakeholders to understand business questions, data needs, and decision‑making requirements, and translating these into clear data and analytical requirements.
Analyse existing data structures, definitions, and flows to identify inconsistencies, gaps, and improvement opportunities across finance and reinsurance domains.
Support the design and evolution of data‑driven solutions (e.g. data products, curated datasets, analytical views) by contributing domain expertise, business logic, and clear definitions.
Help define appropriate data grains, aggregation logic, and business rules to ensure data is fit for purpose across multiple use cases.
Collaborate with data engineers, architects, and technology teams to ensure business requirements are accurately reflected in implemented data solutions.
Perform data analysis and validation using SQL/Python to investigate issues, test assumptions, and support solution design.
Support impact analysis and change discussions when data structures, definitions, or logic evolve, ensuring business implications are clearly understood.
Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders through clear communication, structured workshops, and pragmatic problem‑solving.
Job Requirements
Education and Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree, with an advanced degree (MBA, MSc, MA) and/or additional qualifications being a plus
Professional qualifications/insurance‑related certifications are beneficial but not essential.
Key skills and Behaviours
Strong understanding of actuarial and reserving data concepts and processes, with the ability to apply this knowledge in data and analytical contexts.
Proven experience working as a business data analyst, or similar role within insurance or reinsurance environments.
Advanced SQL skills for data analysis, investigation, and validation.
Ability to structure ambiguous problems and translate complex business topics into clear, actionable data requirements.
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with confidence engaging both business and technical audiences.
Consulting mindset with a focus on delivering practical, high‑quality outcomes in client environments.
Advanced communication, presentation and facilitation skills help you in effective communication with stakeholders at various levels across organisations.
Understanding of key data & AI platforms and solutions used in the insurance sector and you can identify opportunities for improvements.
Specific previous experience
Proven experience in a London Market / UK Insurance / Reinsurance / Insurtech or consultancy firm with exposure to Insurance / Reinsurance clients.
Experience working with actuarial, reserving, or exposure‑related data in insurance or reinsurance contexts.
Prior involvement in data, analytics, or data transformation initiatives within insurance or reinsurance organisations.
This role is UK‑based, with flexibility for client site engagement if required.
