Description: We are seeking an Operations Consulting Lead to support our client, an insurance leader based in FiDi.  This full-time, on-site role will provide day-to-day operational oversight for the Claims function while supporting cross-functional strategic initiatives and ad-hoc executive priorities.

Serving as a central coordination point between senior leadership and operational teams, this individual will ensure core claims execution and parallel work streams remain aligned, on schedule, and performance-driven.

2. Partner directly with senior executives to provide updates, escalate risks, and align operational priorities with strategic objectives.

3. Manage parallel workstreams, including ongoing operational delivery and ad-hoc strategic initiatives.

4. Establish operational cadence through structured reporting, dashboards, and executive-ready status summaries.

5. Coordinate cross-functional stakeholders (Claims, Technology, Finance, Transformation, etc.) to ensure project milestones remain on track.

6. Identify operational risks, bottlenecks, or resource constraints and implement mitigation strategies.

7. Drive accountability across onshore and offshore teams, ensuring clarity of ownership and measurable outcomes.

8. Support process improvement efforts and modernization initiatives through structured project management and change oversight.

9. Maintain strong governance practices across operational execution, including documentation standards, decision tracking, and performance monitoring.

10. Serve as the central operational liaison between executive leadership and frontline teams
