  • Oversee data integration workflows, including ETL, mapping, and validation routines that support reliable valuation outputs
  • Support cash flow model development, testing, and issue resolution during production cycles
  • Lead key components of new reinsurance deal onboarding, including pricing-to-valuation handoff, model readiness, and interim reporting support
  • Help scale onboarding, automation, and control frameworks to support future deal activity and broader enterprise modeling needs

Why This Opportunity

  • Highly visible VP-level seat with meaningful leadership scope
  • Direct impact on both Bermuda valuation infrastructure and new business onboarding
  • Attractive total compensation structure, including a strong base, annual bonus, retirement match, and long-term incentive opportunity.
