The insurance sector is rapidly evolving, and consultancies are at the forefront-helping clients modernise Legacy ecosystems, embrace decentralised data models, and build domain-driven data products that unlock analytics, automation and AI.

As a Senior Manager in our consulting practice, you will lead the design of strategic, business-focused data models for major insurers. Your work will define the structures, standards and architectures that enable transformation across underwriting, pricing, claims, finance and risk.

This is a role for a technical leader who understands both the insurance domain and the broader consulting landscape-someone who brings clarity to complexity, influences senior decision-makers, and drives delivery through diverse, multi-disciplinary teams. What you'll be doing

• Drive data design for large-scale insurance programmes, from conceptual modelling through logical/physical layers, tied directly to business priorities.
• Develop a unified language for data-dictionaries, vocabularies, taxonomies and ontologies that allow teams to interpret data consistently.
• Shape data and analytics architectures collaboratively with solution and enterprise architects.
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, helping them navigate design choices and achieve measurable business outcomes.
• Build strategic roadmaps for Data & AI capabilities, supporting predictive analytics, BI, AI/ML and GenAI.
• Lead workshops to capture requirements, validate design decisions and align business/technology stakeholders.
• Manage teams across consulting disciplines, fostering an inclusive and supportive culture while developing emerging talent.
• Contribute to consulting growth: support pre-sales, RFI/RFP responses, proposals and thought leadership.
• Establish governance and design authorities, ensuring the right controls, patterns and principles are followed.
• Oversee delivery of one or more workstreams, ensuring commercial success and high-quality client outcomes.

• Expertise in the Insurance sector, ideally in one or more: Underwriting, Pricing, Claims, Risk, Finance, or Asset/Investment Management.
• Strong stakeholder management, including working closely with executive-level or C-suite audiences.
• Hands-on data modelling capability across conceptual, logical and physical layers.
• Deep understanding of data management-data quality, MDM, reference data, metadata, governance and analytics/BI.
• Experience defining architecture patterns and applying structured methodologies.
• Proven ability to document and standardise data semantics, including taxonomies and vocabularies.
• Experience collaborating with Business and IT, translating objectives into actionable designs and roadmaps.
• Workshop leadership, including requirements gathering and model review sessions.
• Experience partnering with enterprise/solution/data architects across business units or regions.
• Consulting resilience-thriving in fast-paced project environments.
• Go-to-market experience, including RFP responses and proposal development.
• Commitment to an inclusive team environment where people are recognised and supported.
