Chubb External

At Chubb, Commercial Insurance is continuously evolving. As our business grows, so does the need for an operating model that is scalable, efficient, and future-ready.
We are looking for a Transformation Manager / Execution Excellence Lead who will play a pivotal role in transforming and continuously improving the way our Commercial Insurance business operates.

Working across Underwriting, Operations, Alternative Distribution, IT and our (inter)national teams, you will ensure that strategic ambitions are translated into operational excellence and sustainable execution.
Your Purpose
Building the execution capability of Commercial Insurance
As the Transformation Manager / Execution Excellence Lead, you will develop and embed a culture of Execution Excellence across Commercial Insurance based on a learning and continuous improving environment.&nbsp;
You will continuously challenge the status quo, identify opportunities to improve our operating model and drive initiatives that increase efficiency, effectiveness, quality and scalability.
Together with the leadership team, you ensure that the strategy truly lands in the organization where we together make the Underwriting organization scalable, efficient and future-ready.
