At QBE, our purpose is to enable a more resilient future.
We are an international insurer and reinsurer with a local presence in 27 countries.
The Opportunity
An exciting opportunity within our Reporting Centre of Excellence (CoE) for an MI Reporting Accountant.
If you're detail-oriented, process-driven, and eager to grow within a collaborative and supportive finance environment - we’d love to hear from you. To thrive in this role, you’ll bring a blend of technical expertise and collaborative spirit.
Your New Role
This role is central to delivering the processes and models that underpin our monthly reporting cycle, as well as meeting quarterly external regulatory reporting requirements to Lloyd’s.
Joining the Reporting CoE offers a fantastic entry point into both QBE and the world of financial reporting. You’ll be part of a team that’s passionate about adding value, driving efficiencies, and making a real impact.
Main responsibilities:
Delivering monthly reporting requirements to subject matter experts, ensuring timely and accurate internal and external reporting.
Driving continuous improvement and automation of reporting solutions across financial reporting and analytics.
Promoting consistency across business areas to ensure a single version of financial truth and enable meaningful analysis.
Understanding the needs of business users and proactively resolving queries to support effective reporting.
Building strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including Lloyd’s, to support delivery and implementation of objectives.
Supporting the development of reporting solutions that are fit for purpose and aligned with user needs.
About You
You’re a confident communicator who can engage with stakeholders at all levels. You bring a “can-do” attitude, embrace change, and are comfortable navigating ambiguity. You’re curious, proactive, and always looking for ways to make things better — both for the team and the business.
Skills you’ll need:
Part-qualified or qualified accountant status (or equivalent experience), preferably within the insurance industry would be beneficial but not essential.
Ideally an accounting experience in a complex financial services environment.
Exposure of driving process improvements and delivering change.
Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, XLOOKUPs) and the ability to interpret and communicate financial data clearly.
Experience with tools such as Power BI, Power Query, or Alteryx and other automation tools a significant advantage.
Experience with dealing with large complex data systems
Familiarity with London Market Insurance and Lloyd’s reporting is beneficial, though not essential.
