Overview of the Position:

This position emphasizes the enhancement and refinement of underlying processes and controls, aligning with the company's policies and standards. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a strong sense of accountability and ownership of their responsibilities, delivering results even under tight deadlines while exhibiting flexibility and determination when necessary.

The individual will oversee deliverables based in Luxembourg and will report directly to a manager located in that region. Occasional travel to Luxembourg may be required.

About the Team:

Liberty Specialty Markets operates through two primary legal entities that function as (re)insurers: Syndicate and Liberty Mutual Insurance Europe Limited SE (LMIE). These entities are regulated by Lloyd's, the UK PRA, the Luxembourg CAA, and various overseas regulators concerning their branch operations. With the global expansion of Liberty Specialty Markets, there is a continuous evolution within the regulatory landscape.

We are enhancing our team of finance professionals in Luxembourg. In collaboration with the broader finance team in London, the Luxembourg reporting team is tasked with fulfilling a wide array of external reporting obligations and adhering to local regulatory frameworks. This includes monitoring capital resource levels under various solvency regimes, engaging with diverse stakeholders across the organization to meet detailed reporting requirements, and improving the quality of reporting and processes. All outputs from this function must be delivered within strict deadlines, demanding a high level of commitment from the involved staff, particularly during quarter-end periods.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prepare quarterly and annual regulatory reporting submissions to the Commissariat aux Assurances (CAA) for the legal entity.
  • Generate quarterly internal management reporting packages for the legal entity branch management committees.
  • Oversee and fulfill all other local reporting obligations.
  • Conduct detailed validation work, analytical reviews, and controls on data, working schedules, and results. Create comprehensive files to support all analyses, reviews, and conclusions.
  • Initiate assessments of workflows for efficiency enhancements and identify and escalate issues, unexpected results, or data discrepancies.
  • Document workflows and internal control procedures meticulously.
  • Collaborate closely with members of the Legal Entity Reporting Team to develop consistent and robust reporting processes.
  • Maintain effective relationships with various stakeholders across the organization for successful collaboration.
  • Apply expert knowledge of financial principles and concepts to reporting and clearly document any conclusions reached.
  • Engage in ad-hoc projects to ensure all issues are resolved and thoroughly reported, supporting the implementation of improvements to Legal Entity Reporting within Liberty Specialty Markets' Finance Change program.
  • Adhere to all relevant regulatory requirements as part of your role, demonstrating behaviors outlined in the Conduct Risk Policy, which are integral to Liberty Specialty Markets' commitment to our core values, placing customers at the forefront of our business and acting with integrity. You are expected to understand your responsibilities regarding all regulatory and internal requirements and proactively demonstrate compliance with these expectations at all times. This includes adherence to the Senior Managers and Certification Regime Conduct Rules, Solvency II, fair treatment of customers, Financial Crime, Data Protection, Conflicts of Interest, and Whistleblowing.

  • Qualified accountant or actively pursuing qualification.
  • Strong knowledge of Luxembourg GAAP and/or other European GAAP (French, Spanish, German, Italian, Swiss) is advantageous.
  • Solid understanding of the insurance sector and Solvency I and II regulatory frameworks is beneficial.
