  • Identify and mitigate delivery risks proactively, maintaining RAID logs and escalating appropriately



  • Promote Agile/SAFe delivery methodologies within the team

  • Minimum 10 years of experience in Guidewire implementations in the Belgian insurance market, with a strong track record in both Architect and Tech Lead roles



  • Proven expertise in ClaimCenter configuration, integration (REST/SOAP, Guidewire Integration Framework), and gosu scripting



  • Deep familiarity with Belgian insurance regulations, market practices, and carrier landscape (e.g., Assuralia standards, Belgian social legislation for workers' comp claims)



  • Experience leading teams of 10+ across onshore/offshore delivery models




Nice-to-Have Qualifications



  • Additional Guidewire ACE certifications (PolicyCenter, BillingCenter, or Cloud)



  • Experience with Guidewire Cloud Platform (GWCP) and InsuranceSuite upgrades



  • Exposure to broader core system transformation programs (legacy migration, digital front-ends)



  • Familiarity with Belgian/EU data privacy regulations (GDPR) in an insurance context




Languages



  • Dutch or French (professional proficiency) - essential for client-facing work in Belgium



  • English (full professional proficiency) - required for internal and international collaboration




What We Offer



  • Competitive compensation package benchmarked to the Belgian senior market, including performance bonus and Accenture share options



  • Company car or mobility budget (in line with Belgian CLA 90 framework)



  • Meal vouchers, hospitalisation insurance, and group insurance



  • Continuous learning via Accenture's myLearning platform and access to Guidewire Education
