The Role

A Digital Insurance Consultant with a focus on an industry sector is a critical role within Cognizant Consulting. You will predominately work within a squad of cross functional consultants (for example, Digital Strategists, Digital Architects, Agile Coaches) and provide the industry and client business perspective on the challenge that we are solving for our client.

Typically, you will work on engagements that last between 8 weeks and 6 months where you will be analysing a business, its people, their customers to define and solve complex business problems by shaping a strategy, designing a digital solution or architecting the implementation. Sometimes you will work through all those stages in the transformation lifecycle.

Cognizant's purpose is to engineer modern businesses to improve everyday life. In the context of consulting that means you will be:
  • Helping a client find and create new value for their customers, their business and our society through technology
  • Helping a client understand what a modern business means in their context and how to manage the transition to it
  • Facilitating the future design, orchestrating how Cognizant and its partners deliver that outcome and helping the client get value from it
In this Digital Insurance Consultant role, you can expect to:
  • Participating and co-facilitating workshops to understand the client problem and define the scope.
  • Investigating and analysing the business value drivers, customer needs and current technology and operational capabilities of the business
  • Requirements gathering lifecycle (including elicitation, documentation & management of approval).
  • Supporting the translation of requirements into solution designs, collaborating extensive with the digital squad (strategists, designers, and digital architects).
  • Helping to prioritise work for a project squad (fully Cognizant or a mix of Cognizant and client) to optimise the value to the client from their investment
  • Communicating with key client stakeholders and Cognizant leaders with strong written and oral skills focusing on scope, requirements, actions and follow-up activities.
  • Producing succinct presentation documents, insightful process maps or high-quality user stories.
  • Supporting Consulting managers at any stage of the engagement lifecycle (this may include review/creation of requirements / support documentation, cost estimates, follow-up action trackers etc).

At Cognizant we value consultants that have a high IQ, enjoy problem solving, a willingness to serve, and have little ego. You will need to be confident presenting to both business and technology stakeholders, being part of cross functional geographically dispersed teams, and have strong negotiating for outcomes skills. Above all, you should have a positive attitude, and enjoy working with consultants from a diverse range of backgrounds, on a variety of fast paced engagements.
