The opportunity
EY is scaling its Nordic Financial Services Technology Consulting practice with a clear ambition to double the business over the next four years. We see substantial untapped potential across the Danish and broader Nordic insurance markets.
This is not a traditional delivery or capability leadership role.

You will act as a trusted advisor to CIOs and technology leadership teams while building and scaling EY’s long-term technology position across priority insurance accounts.

- Build and execute growth strategies for priority insurance accounts
- Drive technology sales, pipeline development and delivery
- Position EY as a leading transformation partner across core, data, digital and cloud agendas
- Connect client needs with EY’s global technology capabilities, alliances and ecosystem
- Shape account strategy together with Account and Nordic leadership
- Develop repeatable insurance technology offerings and go-to-market plays
- Lead cross-functional collaboration across Nordic and global EY teams
This role combines senior client engagement, commercial ownership and technology leadership, and is suited for candidates who want to operate at the intersection of advisory, sales and delivery.
Specific focus areas – Insurance Technology Lead
- Build and scale EY’s technology presence in the Danish insurance market
- Establish trusted relationships with CIO organizations and senior technology stakeholders
- Drive transformation across core modernization, digital platforms, data and AI
- Support development of industry-specific solutions and Nordic go-to-market plays

- Proven ability to engage and influence technology executives at CIO / CTO level
- Experience with large-scale technology transformation programmes within Insurance
- Strong commercial mindset with demonstrated responsibility for originating and closing technology consulting opportunities
- Ability to operate in a Nordic, cross-border environment
Ideally, you’ll also have
- Experience building pipeline and leading complex technology engagements
- Experience scaling consulting offerings, practices or teams
- Experience working within preferred supplier or strategic vendor frameworks

- Collaborative leadership and ability to operate across service lines
- Strong commercial instincts and ownership mindset

Why EY
EY offers a platform that combines technology consulting with the full breadth of the firm. Technology transformation is delivered together with strategy, risk and business transformation capabilities, allowing you to engage clients on end-to-end change rather than isolated technology initiatives.
The Nordic Financial Services practice operates with a highly collaborative cross-border model, enabling leaders to build relationships and teams across markets and avoid silo-driven structures. This creates real opportunity to build and scale technology-led growth across the region.
Joining now means becoming part of a growth journey where you will help shape the Account Technology Leader model, influence investment priorities and play a central role in expanding EY’s technology footprint within Nordic insurance.
