From the employer
This is not a traditional technical modeling role. We are looking for a professional who understands how Finance and Actuarial processes operate within a reinsurance company and can translate that understanding into a scalable, governed, and business-aligned data architecture and data models.

Design and own the enterprise Finance data architecture and data model supporting Reserving, Closing, Performance Management, Investments, Treasury, and Financial Reporting.
Define and evolve conceptual, logical data models within SCOR's Data Foundation.
Establish common business definitions, semantics, and canonical data structures across Finance, Actuarial, Risk, and Corporate functions.
Lead the design of the Finance Analytical Data Model, ensuring consistency, traceability, reconciliation capability, and alignment across source systems and business processes.
Work closely with Finance, Actuarial, and Business stakeholders to translate complex reinsurance and finance requirements into scalable and reusable data structures.
Ensure appropriate handling of granularity, historical tracking, time dimensions, accounting perspectives, and regulatory requirements.
Drive alignment between operational data, analytical data products, reporting requirements, and AI-enabled use cases.
Define standards and best practices for Finance data architecture, information modeling, metadata management, and data governance.
Support enterprise initiatives related to IFRS 17, Solvency II, Technical Closing, Reserving, Planning, Forecasting, and Performance analytics.
Partner with Data Engineers, Solution Architects, and Domain Leads to ensure consistent implementation of target-state data models across the Finance ecosystem.

Proven experience designing enterprise-scale conceptual and logical data models used across multiple business functions.
Experience defining canonical data models, business semantics, and data standards.
