• Proven ability to operate across multiple distribution models (direct/agent/licensed and referral/partner handoff).


• Strong roadmap ownership, prioritization, and stakeholder management across regions and functions.

• Excellent written and verbal communication; able to simplify complex topics and drive decisions.

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• Experience with EMEA insurance distribution, cross-border client onboarding/suitability, and related regulatory considerations.


• Prior work on advisor tooling (CRM, workflow, case management) and client purchase journeys.


• Familiarity with API-first architectures, identity/consent, document workflows, and analytics experimentation.


• EMEA language capability (e.g., French, German, Spanish, Italian, Arabic) is a plus.
