About this role

Who We Are At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission-critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. So why work at Kyndryl? We are always moving forward – always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.

The Role Kyndryl Consult is the fastest-growing business within the organization and instrumental to the company's strategic growth objectives. As a Consult Partner, you will play a key leadership role across multi-disciplinary teams, guiding them through complex consulting engagements and creating strategic change agendas within Kyndryl's largest accounts across the C-suite — spanning the intersection of complex business and IT transformation.

We are hiring a Consult Partner to drive meaningful growth within an existing portfolio of insurance accounts. These accounts have foundational relationships in place but represent significant white space — limited Kyndryl footprint with substantial runway for expansion. This is a hunter-farmer hybrid role for someone who thrives in building from a base, not inheriting a mature book of business.

You will own, run, and grow a targeted set of accounts — focusing your energy where you have the greatest right to win and where clients have an immediate need to modernize mission-critical business lines through AI-driven transformation.

Sector Focus • Deep expertise in the Specialty Insurance market, including complex, high-risk and bespoke coverage models

• Strong understanding of specialty underwriting, broker-driven distribution, and tailored policy structures

• Property & Casualty (P&C) experience is a strong plus, particularly where it intersects with specialty lines

• Additional familiarity with Life Insurance and broker ecosystems is beneficial

Sales & Client Engagement • Proven ability to build pipeline and close deals within Specialty Insurance, across carriers, MGAs, and brokers

• Ability to identify whitespace opportunities and position transformation-led engagements

• Trusted advisor who can guide clients through modernization journeys, aligning business needs with technology solutions

• Effective at communicating value to both Lines of Business (Underwriting, Claims, Operations) and IT organizations

Core Capabilities • Strong understanding of insurance core platforms, including: • Policy Administration Systems (Guidewire, Duck Creek, Majesco, etc.)

• Underwriting and workflow orchestration tools

• Claims platforms (especially in specialty/P&C environments)

• Ability to sell transformation of legacy technology estates, positioning modernization as a driver of growth and efficiency

Agentic AI & Value Proposition • Ability to lead with and sell Agentic AI-driven transformation, including: • Orchestrating complex underwriting workflows

• Automating case-based decisioning and risk evaluation

• Enhancing broker and agent engagement models

• Positions AI in terms of tangible business outcomes, such as: • Accelerated underwriting cycles and deal velocity

• Improved pricing and risk accuracy

• Scalable operations for bespoke products

• P&C knowledge (plus): • Ability to articulate how Agentic AI transforms claims, including FNOL, triage, adjudication, and fraud detection

• Experience positioning AI within major policy administration ecosystems (Guidewire, Duck Creek, Majesco preferred)

Market Presence • Established relationships across Specialty carriers, brokers, and MGAs in the Midwest and/or Northeast

• Recognized as a sales leader and trusted advisor in AI-driven insurance transformation

Who You Are You’re good at what you do and possess the required experience to prove it. However, equally as important – you have a growth mindset; keen to drive your own personal and professional development. You are customer-focused – someone who prioritizes customer success in their work. And finally, you’re open and borderless – naturally inclusive in how you work with others.

What You Will Do Account Growth & Business Development • Inherit a small portfolio of insurance accounts with existing paperwork and base-level traction — then grow them into sizable, meaningful revenue relationships

• Operate with a hunter-farmer mindset: open new doors within existing accounts while identifying and converting net-new opportunities

• Focus growth where you have the greatest right to win, prioritizing clients with immediate AI transformation needs and mission-critical modernization agendas

• Support the identification, pursuit, and conversion of a pipeline of opportunities; manage scoping, fee negotiation, and risk across engagements

Client Engagement • Build and maintain deep relationships with client CXOs and senior executives — becoming a trusted advisor and the go-to person for strategic technology decisions

• Lead C-level client interactions and consulting initiatives, delivering high-quality outcomes alongside senior stakeholders

• Drive client satisfaction as measured by Net Promoter Score (NPS) and secure client references for expanded engagement

Financial Accountability • Drive significant financial outcomes through signings, revenue targets, and backlog growth

• Ensure sustained profitability, managing margin expectations across engagements

• Achieve individual and team utilization targets while maintaining delivery excellence

Leadership & Strategic Contribution • Lead multi-disciplinary teams through complex consulting engagements, fostering a culture of curiosity, innovation, and continuous
