Controller - Insurance

CONTROLLER - INSURANCE

A unique opportunity for an experienced Accounting Reinsurance professional to step into a high-impact Controller position with a sophisticated organization in the automotive sector.

This is not simply a role focused on maintaining an existing reinsurance program. The Controller will have the opportunity to understand and influence the economics of the program, assess profitability, strengthen controls and reporting, and become a key partner to the Controller and senior leadership.

WHY CONSIDER THE SENIOR MANAGER OF REINSURANCE ROLE?

The Controller will be joining at an important point in the evolution of the function, with the opportunity to bring structure, insight, and leadership to an established operation. The role offers meaningful ownership, senior-level exposure, and the chance to build a strong foundation for the future.

You will have the opportunity to:

• Take ownership of the reinsurance structure, economics, agreements, commissions, cession methodology, settlements, and flow of funds.
• Evaluate reinsurance performance, loss experience, frequency, severity, and profitability and challenge assumptions where appropriate.
• Translate complex reinsurance and financial information into clear recommendations for senior leadership.
• Coordinate regulatory filings, licensing, form/rate requirements, and responses with consultants, regulators, carrier partners, and external advisors.
• Oversee recurring calculations, cession statements, reconciliations, and settlements while strengthening accuracy and controls.
• Develop more robust reporting, documentation, and procedures, reducing reliance on undocumented institutional knowledge.
• Build relationships with and learn from the existing reinsurance team, capturing critical knowledge and creating effective cross-training and succession plans.
• Ultimately lead, supervise, and develop the reinsurance function as succession needs evolve.
• Maintain clear ownership of reinsurance while working collaboratively with Finance and other key stakeholders.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

The successful Controller will bring substantial hands-on reinsurance experience together with proven leadership capability. You will be comfortable understanding the detail while also stepping back to assess the broader commercial, financial, and risk implications.

This opportunity would suit a polished, analytical, and confident reinsurance professional who wants more than day-to-day responsibility. The Controller will have the visibility and autonomy to shape processes, develop people, influence decisions, and help build the next stage of the function.

If you are ready to take ownership of a significant reinsurance operation and partner directly with senior leadership, this Controller opportunity offers the scope, visibility, and long-term impact that experienced professionals look for.
