Job Title: Statutory Insurance Accounting
Job Description
The Senior Technical Accountant role is an individual contributor position that provides high-level statutory insurance accounting expertise across the organization. You will serve as a subject matter expert on Statutory Accounting Principles (SAP), focusing on review, analysis, and advisory work rather than routine preparation. In this role, you will support complex statutory reporting, technical research, reconciliations, regulatory interactions, and audit activities, while overseeing and guiding the work of others who handle more technical or preparatory tasks. This position offers the opportunity to influence key decisions, improve processes, and partner closely with auditors, regulators, and internal stakeholders in a stable, growth-oriented insurance environment.
Essential Skills
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a closely related field.
- 3-5+ years of insurance accounting experience with significant exposure to NAIC statutory accounting, including statutory reporting and compliance.
- Deep, hands-on expertise in Statutory Accounting Principles (SAP) and NAIC statutory accounting, including codification interpretation and application to complex insurance transactions.
- Demonstrated experience working with insurance regulators, statutory audits, and insurance regulatory filings.
- Strong background in investment, cash, and general ledger reconciliations, including multi-source data reconciliation.
- Proven ability to perform variance analysis and root-cause investigation to resolve differences and issues in statutory financial data.
- Advanced Excel skills, including the ability to create workbooks from scratch, design summary schedules for large data sets, build pivot tables, and use lookups and logic-based formulas.
- Experience improving the efficiency and accuracy of reporting tools and Excel-based models.
- Proven ability to document controls, processes, and accounting conclusions in a clear, comprehensive, and audit-ready manner.
- Experience working under tight deadlines, including extended hours during close and year-end reporting cycles.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to interact professionally with accountants, financial administrators, auditors, regulators, and management.
- Strong attention to detail, accuracy, and quality in all aspects of statutory reporting and analysis.
- Ability to thrive as a subject matter expert, providing oversight and advisory support without direct people management responsibilities.
Additional Skills & Qualifications
- MBA, CPA, or Master of Accountancy is a plus.
