About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Program Governance Lead to oversee and govern a large-scale Cloud Data Engineering engagement for a major US-based P&C Insurance client. You will be the primary custodian of program health, ensuring that planning, execution, and financial tracking are handled with precision. The ideal candidate acts as the "bridge" between the US-based client stakeholders and the global delivery teams, ensuring that risks are mitigated before they impact timelines and that the program adheres to the strict regulatory and security standards of the insurance industry.

Requirements

• Insurance Expertise: Deep understanding of the US P&C Insurance landscape (Claims, Policy, Agency data) and associated regulatory requirements (CCPA, HIPAA, etc.).
• Cloud Data Programs: Proven track record governing large-scale migrations to Snowflake, AWS, or Azure data ecosystems.
• Seniority: 15+ years of experience in Program Management/Governance, specifically in multi-vendor or global delivery models.
• Project Management Tools: Mastery of Jira, Confluence, and MS Project for tracking agile and waterfall delivery.
• Reporting: Ability to build high-level governance dashboards using PowerBI or Tableau to visualize program health.
• Cloud Concepts: While not a coding role, you must understand ETL/ELT patterns, Data Lakes, and Data Warehouse architectures to effectively communicate with engineers.
• Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, tailored for US-based executive audiences.
• Cultural Competency: Experience navigating the nuances of working with US-based clients while managing global delivery teams.
• Resilience: Ability to remain calm and structured in high-pressure environments or during critical production issues.
