- Support the preparation and filing of quarterly and annual statutory statements, including NAIC schedules (e.g., Schedule F)
- Contribute to GAAP financial reporting, including supporting schedules, analytics, and disclosures
- Play a key role in the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes across multiple entities
- Partner with auditors, actuaries, and regulators to provide data, analysis, and supporting documentation
- Work closely with leadership to enhance internal controls, documentation, and accounting workflows
- Identify opportunities to improve reporting processes, streamline reconciliations, and enhance data integrity
- Provide both detailed accounting support and higher-level financial analysis to inform management decision-making
Qualifications
- 5-8 years of accounting experience within the Property & Casualty insurance industry
- Direct experience with reinsurance accounting, including ceded transactions
- Strong understanding of both GAAP and Statutory (STAT) accounting frameworks
- Experience working across multiple entities and consolidated reporting environments
- Advanced Excel skills and strong analytical capabilities
- Familiarity with ERP systems (Workday preferred; Oracle, SAP, or similar also relevant)
- Strong attention to detail, with the ability to connect results to broader financial trends
- Effective communicator, comfortable working cross-functionally with finance, actuarial, and leadership teams
- Self-starter mindset with the ability to operate in a fast-paced, evolving environment
