The Opportunity
Life and Annuity and Group and Voluntary Benefits carriers are at the same inflection point from different directions — both modernizing core platforms, evolving operating models, and deploying AI and intelligent agents to unlock capabilities that legacy architectures cannot support. For L&A carriers, the opportunity centers on policy administration transformation, digital core modernization, and the data foundations that enable intelligent operations at scale. For Group and Voluntary Benefits carriers, the opportunity concentrates in the value streams where agentic AI creates the most measurable impact — shielding complexity from the experience while driving speed, scale, and new performance outcomes across underwriting speed and win propensity, integrated absence and disability claims management, guided enrollment and onboarding, and data exchange across a complex broker and employer ecosystem.

Role Summary
Life Insurance and Group Benefits Consulting Managers lead defined workstreams across complex transformation programs. They translate business objectives into operating model designs, technology solutions, and delivery-ready plans — connecting the strategic vision set by senior leaders to the analytical work and implementation that makes it real. They manage day-to-day client relationships at the working level, develop junior team members, and maintain accountability for the quality and progress of their workstream.
In this role, you will lead workstreams that translate carrier transformation vision into working solutions — connecting business strategy to operating model design, technology delivery, and outcomes that show up in loss ratios, operational efficiency, growth, and the experience of customers and distribution partners across both markets.
