<b>Job Description</b><br><span id="spandesc"><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify"><b>Mandate Overview:</b><br/></p><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify"><span style="">&nbsp;</span>The client is looking for a business architect who steps in once an initiative has been prioritized, before it becomes a project. The work consists of framing the need, estimating its value, benefits, impacts and scope, then informing the decision on how the initiative should proceed. The role sits within a business analysis centre of excellence, which makes the line with business analysis thin: the distinction lies in the timing of the intervention (upstream, decision support) and in the nature of deliverables (business architecture, not detailed requirements). The experience threshold is high: ten years of relevant experience, including five in business architecture within transformation programs. Knowledge of insurance or of data and AI is described by the client as an important asset.<br/></p><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify"><b>Target candidate:</b> a business architect with at least five years of practice in transformation programs, used to turning a prioritized initiative into a value analysis and a decision-ready recommendation. The resume shows concrete business architecture deliverables, ideally modelled in Enterprise Architect, along with an understanding of organizational and strategic context; experience in insurance or in data and AI puts the candidate at the top of the list.<br/></p><div class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><br/></div></span><br/><span id="spanreq"><h3>Requirements</h3><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify"><b>Required:</b><br/></p><ul><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Experience in business architecture and in transformation programs<br/></span></li><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Strong conceptual and synthesis skills<br/></span></li><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Ability to understand organizational context and corporate strategies<br/></span></li></ul><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify">&nbsp;<br/></p><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify"><b>Asset:</b><br/></p><ul><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Knowledge of the insurance domain and/or the data and AI domain<br/></span></li></ul><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify">&nbsp;<br/></p><p class="align-justify" style="margin-top:0px; text-align:justify"><b>Profiles to Exclude:</b><br/></p><ul><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Business analyst profile whose experience is limited to writing detailed requirements during delivery, with no upstream analysis of value, benefits or scope.<br/></span></li><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Solution or IT architect profile whose deliverables are technical (integration, application, infrastructure), with no demonstrated business architecture deliverable.<br/></span></li><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Profile with ten years of experience, but with less than five years in business architecture or business architecture practised outside a transformation program.<br/></span></li><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Project manager or project lead profile delivering initiatives, with no demonstrated upstream framing and recommendation responsibility.<br/></span></li><li class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><span>Profile holding the business architect title without any concrete deliverable named in the resume (models, impact analyses, recommendations).<br/></span></li></ul><div class="align-justify" style="text-align:justify"><br/></div></span><br/><br><b>Requirements</b><br>Required: Experience in
