Introduction

Reinsurance Operations Analyst

Job Summary

The Reinsurance Operations Analyst supports the day-to-day processing and servicing of reinsurance business within "The Clients" Management Services offering.

The role involves working with premium and claims bordereaux, statements, and other financial and operational data; performing reconciliations; investigating discrepancies; maintaining accurate and auditable processing records; and supporting communication with cedants, brokers, and other stakeholders.

Prior reinsurance experience is not required. We are looking primarily for someone who is numerically capable, highly proficient in Excel, detail-oriented, and naturally inclined to investigate why something does not look right. Training will be provided in reinsurance concepts, OpIngen’s proprietary RePort processing platform, and our operating procedures.

  • Support processing of statements, cash transactions, and other operational information
  • Track submission status and follow up on outstanding items

Reconciliation & Investigation

  • Reconcile processed data to broker, cedant, and other supporting information
  • Check premium and claims movements for consistency and reasonableness
  • Identify and isolate reconciliation differences
  • Investigate discrepancies using Excel and structured analytical techniques
  • Determine the source of differences where reasonably possible before escalating
  • Escalate unresolved issues or matters requiring senior judgment with a clear explanation of the work performed

Cedant & Broker Servicing

  • Respond to routine operational queries
  • Request missing information or supporting documentation where required
  • Maintain professional, clear, and timely communication
  • Coordinate follow-ups and manage operational deadlines

  • Maintain accurate and auditable processing records
  • Identify unusual data, recurring exceptions, or potential data-quality issues
  • Perform quality-control checks before work is submitted for review

Measures of Success

  • Accurate and timely processing
  • Ability to reconcile and investigate financial data
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Increasing independence in resolving routine discrepancies
  • Clear documentation of issues and investigative work
  • Appropriate escalation of matters requiring senior judgment
  • Professional stakeholder communication

Required Skills

  • Strong Excel proficiency
  • Strong numerical and analytical problem-solving ability
  • High attention to detail and accuracy
  • Ability to work comfortably with large and sometimes imperfect datasets
  • Ability to investigate a problem methodically rather than simply identify that one exists
  • Clear written and verbal communication
  • Ability to manage multiple processing deadlines
  • Curiosity and willingness to learn

Preferred Background

  • Prior reinsurance experience is not required
  • Experience or education in finance, accounting, insurance, business, or another numerically oriented discipline is preferred
