Building a European IT function for a global insurance broker
INSURANCE
A global insurance broker needed to build a new European IT function to support acquisitive growth and technology transformation. We delivered large-scale, complex hiring on time and on budget.
Challenge
The company was overhauling its technology to align UK operations with its American parent.
They required multiple teams, including EUC/Support, Networks, and Cloud, to migrate retail and MGA operations onto new platforms.
Initially working with multiple agencies slowed progress; they needed a single partner to deliver consistently across numerous specialist roles.
Solution
Our insurance technology specialists became the primary recruitment partner, drawing on deep sector knowledge and a vast network of technology professionals.
We worked closely with hiring managers and internal recruitment teams to understand each technical requirement, maintain open communication, and provide both permanent and contract talent.
Roles ranged from Project Managers and Programme Managers to EUC Engineers, Intune Engineers, Network Engineers, Azure Cloud Engineers, M365 Engineers, Heads of Networks and EUC, Data Engineers, and Solutions Architects.
