- Proactively and continuously identify opportunities for process improvements across all fronting-related activities and departments; take ownership of driving cross-functional implementation of these improvements.
- Identify key commercial risks, establish corresponding controls, and ensure ongoing monitoring of both risks and controls.
- Manage compliance with Allianz Partners Group governance requirements for fronted contracts (inwards reinsurance) and captive contracts (outwards reinsurance).
Fronting Data Analysis, Structuring & Reporting
- Take full ownership of understanding end-to-end Fronting Data and Reporting processes (both incoming and outgoing data flows).
- Analyse, structure, and reconcile fronting data to ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency across systems and stakeholders.
- Conduct feasibility and impact analyses of new as well as changes to existing Fronting Data flows and data ingestion processes into UW/Pricing BAU processes, working jointly with relevant business stakeholders.
