Lead Analytics Consultant Job Singapore,Software Development

Who are we?

Howden is a global insurance group with employee ownership at its heart. Together, we have pushed the boundaries of insurance. We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mindset, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 24,000 employees spanning over 56 countries.

People join Howden for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It’s what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down headhunters for years. Whatever your priorities – work / life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering – you’ll find like-minded people driving change e Purpose The Strategic Data & Analytics team builds the analytical products that support growth across Howden Employee Benefits.

We are a business-embedded team that works directly alongside consultants, client directors and project teams, rather than operating within a traditional technology or IT function. Our products are used every day by colleagues across the UK business and by our clients to support better decision-making, solve complex challenges and deliver stronger outcomes.

This role builds those products. You will own delivery end to end, and lead the reusable components, frameworks, templates and working practices that allow a small team to serve the whole business. Our approach is simple: build fewer things, build them fast, and build them once so they can be used many times.

This is not a software engineering role and it is not an IT role. We are a consulting team that is proficient with technology. You will spend as much time working out what a senior leader actually needs to decide as writing the code that answers it.

Location is flexible, with home-based or local Howden office-based both available according to preference. The team itself is distributed across home and several Howden offices and works together primarily over Teams rather than in one room. Our closeness to the business is organisational rather than geographic.

Key Accountabilities Work directly with senior leaders and client-facing colleagues to turn a broad commercial question into a defined, decidable one, and to turn the answer into a product rather than a one-off analysis.

Own delivery of analytical products end to end, from first conversations through to something in production that real users depend on.

Lead the development of the reusable components, libraries, frameworks, templates and working practices the rest of the team builds on.

Build for reuse and hand-off: configurable, documented and maintainable by someone other than you.

Work within the firm’s software development lifecycle and governance requirements, and help shape them where they do not yet fit how a small product team works.

Support the technical development of colleagues, including reviewing their work. This is not a line management role.

Keep delivery momentum when priorities move, which they will.

Skills & Experience The first question is whether this is the right environment for you.

You have a consulting mindset and enjoy working across a wide variety of problems.

You enjoy helping senior leaders and their teams make better decisions, and you see data, analytics and visualisation as your tools for bringing that about.

You can explain technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

You support the people around you, in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges. You share what you learn, you would rather have an honest conversation than a comfortableone, and you build your own network across the business. In a small team we succeed together, and nothing we build succeeds unless the business succeeds with it.

You take ownership of your…
