This role is a key member of the Insurance Leadership Team, bringing extensive experience of Insurance to the Business Consultants who are engaged with our clients. The primary purpose of this leader is to ensure complete client success and satisfaction in the implementation of our products, whether delivered by a team member or directly by the Head of Business Consultancy.

The role is accountable for:

• Driving effective collaboration with other Insurance and Group teams to achieve shared objectives, modelling Eurobase’s values of Collaboration, Accountability, Respect and Excellence in all interactions.

The Business Consultant team is responsible for understanding and analysing client requirements and supporting the definition and shaping of customer projects alongside the Sales team, ensuring that requirements are clearly understood and that the business solution is mapped effectively to these needs. This role oversees the activities and performance of each Business Consultant in a project team environment on either Eurobase or client premises, which may include overseas travel. Some travel may be required.
