Following a major acquisition, our client - a leading UK-based insurance integrator - needed to rapidly build a specialised team to handle the complex integration of newly acquired assets. This integration required large-scale data migration that included claims, policy, and finance data. The challenge was to recruit skilled professionals with the necessary experience in insurance integration, within a tight timeframe.
Solution
Working closely with the client, we quickly assembled a team of project managers, business analysts, data engineers, and PMO contract resources. Leveraging our extensive network and database of insurance professionals, we sourced candidates from other acquisitive broking and general insurance businesses who had specific experience with relevant policy administration systems (PAS) and proficiency in the Azure data tech stack, ensuring they could seamlessly step into the integration project.
Results
In just seven days, we secured seven hires, with each candidate completing a rigorous two-stage interview process. Our 2:1 interview-to-placement ratio ensured that only the highest-quality professionals were selected. The client praised the speed and efficiency of the onboarding process, noting that the new team played a crucial role in ensuring a smooth integration of the acquired business’ operations and data into the group.
