About the Team

The Consolidation & Reporting team is responsible for consolidating the Business Unit Corporate Solutions financial results, preparing commentaries for quarterly US GAAP and Economic Value Management (EVM) reporting and driving operational excellence in finance controlling and reporting activities.

The team fulfils a dynamic role including segment and group financial reporting, partnering with the business and supporting various governance and decision taking bodies within Corporate Solutions. We have daily contact and collaboration with various other finance functions (i.e. Financial Planning & Analysis, Capital & Liquidity Management, legal entity teams) as well as other areas of the business, such as Underwriting and Actuarial.
You should ideally have an understanding of economic valuation principles and traditional re(insurance) business, which will allow you to analyze and explain deviations in financial results. A key responsibility will be to drive the quarterly reporting process and ensure timely preparation of high quality deliverables and engaging with and managing various business partners and stakeholders, including senior management. You will also support key initiatives and projects, including financial reporting IT developments and accounting standards developments (i.e. IFRS 17).

We are an equal opportunity employer, and we value diversity at our company. Our aim is to live visible and invisible diversity – diversity of age, race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, physical abilities, personalities and experiences at all levels and in all functions and regions. We also collaborate in a flexible working environment, providing you with a compelling degree of autonomy to decide how, when and where to carry out your tasks.
