We’re partnering with a leading financial services organisation undergoing a major finance transformation, focused on building a Finance Data Hub.

Sitting within Finance, this role is central to shaping the future-state finance data model. You’ll act as the bridge between Finance, Data, and Technology—challenging legacy complexity and driving a simplified, scalable target state that supports current and future reporting requirements, including IFRS 17.

Key responsibilities
  • Define finance data requirements across GL, regulatory, management and IFRS 17 reporting
  • Analyse existing insurance accounting rules, mappings and data flows
  • Rationalise legacy processes and identify opportunities to simplify complex insurance data structures
  • Support design of target-state finance data models (dimensions, attributes, mapping frameworks)
  • Contribute to FDH architecture and data layer design (bronze, silver, gold)
  • Ensure robust data lineage, traceability and reconciliation across finance and actuarial data sets
  • Translate finance and insurance accounting requirements into clear data specifications for technical teams
  • Partner with Finance, Data Office, Architecture and Delivery teams across the program
  • Provide independent challenge and thought leadership on design decisions
About you
  • Strong insurance accounting experience with exposure to IFRS 17 (highly advantageous)
  • Deep understanding of finance data flows (subledger → GL → reporting) in an insurance environment
  • Experience with data transformations, mappings and rule-based accounting structures
  • Ability to conceptualise and work with data models (dimensional / star schema)
  • Background in finance transformation, ERP or enterprise data programs
  • Strong stakeholder engagement skills with ability to challenge senior stakeholders
  • CA / CPA preferred
Why this role
  • Shape a greenfield Finance Data Hub within a major transformation program
  • High exposure to senior Finance and Data leadership
  • Strong mix of strategic design and hands-on delivery
  • Opportunity to simplify and redefine complex insurance finance data structures
