About The Position

A global fintech leader, Acrisure empowers millions of ambitious businesses and individuals with the right solutions to grow boldly forward. Bringing cutting-edge technology and top-tier human support together, we connect clients with customized solutions across a range of insurance, reinsurance, payroll, benefits, cybersecurity, mortgage services – and more. In the last twelve years, Acrisure has grown in revenue from $38 million to almost $5 billion and employs over 19,000 colleagues in more than 20 countries. Acrisure was built on entrepreneurial spirit. Prioritizing leadership, accountability, and collaboration, we equip our teams to work at the highest levels possible. The Head of Value Realization plays a critical role in ensuring Acrisure’s broader operating-model modernization translate into real, measurable, and sustained business impact. This role sits at the intersection of operations, transformation, third-party delivery, and finance, serving as the connective tissue between strategy and results. Rather than acting as a traditional FP&A lead, this position focuses on value identification, validation, prioritization, and communication ensuring that savings, productivity gains, and service improvements are clearly understood, accurately reflected, and fully realized. Equally important, this leader serves as the chief evangelist for value across the enterprise helping executives, operators, and partners understand what matters most, where value is coming from, and how progress is being delivered. In a fast-scaling, acquisition-driven fintech environment, this role ensures Acrisure stays focused on outcomes over activity, clarity over complexity, and value over volume.

Value-Driven Pragmatist: Focuses on outcomes over theory; ensures transformation efforts translate into real, usable results.

Credible Translator: Converts complex initiatives and assumptions into simple, trustworthy executive narratives.
Change Evangelist: Champions projects across the enterprise, reinforcing clarity, momentum, and belief in the transformation.
Trusted Partner: Influences without authority, builds confidence through transparency, and helps leaders make better decisions.
