Manager - Insurance Regulatory Compliance (Contract)

Role Type: Contractor 
Project: Insurance Regulatory Compliance 
Duration: 3–6 months 
Location: Remote - Charlotte / New York / Toronto 

Role Overview 

Sia Partners is seeking an experienced Insurance Regulatory Compliance Subject Matter Expert (SME) to support a strategic engagement with one of our key insurance clients. This contractor will play a critical role in leading a regulatory compliance review across U.S. federal and state requirements, with a focus on identifying gaps across internal policies, procedures, standards, and controls related to life insurance, health insurance, annuities, and other employee benefit products offered by insurance carriers. 

The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in insurance regulatory compliance, a strong understanding of carrier operations, and demonstrated success conducting complex gap assessments and control evaluations. This individual will also be comfortable leveraging AI-enabled regulatory review tools, including RegAI, Sia’s proprietary regulatory analysis and matching solution, to enhance the speed, quality, and rigor of the assessment. 

This is an excellent opportunity for a senior compliance professional who thrives in a client-facing environment, can lead workstreams independently, and is comfortable translating complex regulatory requirements into actionable business and compliance recommendations. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Serve as the primary day-to-day point of contact for the client, ensuring effective execution against project objectives, deliverables, and timelines. 

• Act as a subject matter expert on insurance carrier regulations, compliance obligations, and operating models. 

• Conduct regulatory gap assessments by comparing applicable federal and state insurance requirements to the client’s documented policies, procedures, standards, and control environment. 

• Analyze and interpret complex regulatory language across multiple jurisdictions and translate it into clear, actionable compliance obligations and requirements. 

• Review and assess internal compliance documentation for completeness, accuracy, clarity, and alignment with applicable regulatory expectations. 

• Develop detailed deliverables, including compliance requirement inventories, gap analysis matrices, control assessments, and prioritized remediation recommendations. 

• Leverage RegAI to support regulatory text analysis, obligation extraction, requirement mapping, and gap identification. 

• Manage and mentor junior consultants, providing oversight, quality assurance, and direction across workstreams. 

• Synthesize findings into clear, executive-ready reports and present observations, risks, and recommendations to client stakeholders.
