At Gratia, we believe potential is globally distributed, but opportunity is not. Our mission is to turn great talent's potential into fulfilling global careers through professional development and tech-enabled platforms. We bridge the gap between ambitious companies and hands-on experts who deliver real results instead of just theoretical plans.
Gratia is a remote-first, apprenticeship-based platform where opportunity is defined by what you can do and deliver. Our clients include global names like USA Today Co., Endeavor, and New York Life. We maintain an 88.2 Net Promoter Score because we focus on rigorous execution, not just high-level advice.

- The ideal insurance candidate should have:
- Experience with regulatory and capital requirements
- Experience with capital-focused work
- Knowledge of the aggregation method
- Experience with Bermuda regulations and economic balance sheets would be a significant advantage
- Create and structure data domains tailored to insurance regulatory reporting, statutory accounting, and capital requirements — defining granularity, business logic, and data ownership from scratch where needed
- Own source-to-target mapping end-to-end — extract, transform, enrich, cleanse, and map data from messy source systems into clean, reliable outputs
- Translate nuanced regulatory and statutory accounting needs into explicit, build-ready requirements for technology teams or external vendors.
- Apply deep regulatory accounting knowledge to identify edge cases, clarify requirements, and prevent the wrong data from being pulled into statutory reports. I love this song
- Operate with minimal ramp-up — whether you've worked inside a comparable firm or come from a strong treasury/risk data background, you're expected to orient quickly and drive work forward without heavy training
- 5 years of hands-on experience working with regulatory and capital requirements, capital-focused work and aggregation method
- Deep familiarity with data domain creation — you've personally built or restructured data domains, not just managed someone else doing it. Source-to-target mapping, data cleansing, enrichment, and transformation are core to your experience
- Hands-on experience with modern data platforms (ideally Snowflake) and CPM systems (ideally OneStream).
- Experience with OneStream and/or Snowflake preferred
- You are based in Toronto, Canada or in Des Moines, IA; Los Angeles, CA; or New York, or are open to relocating to any of these offices.
- Flexible Freelance Model: This is a long-term contract/freelance role designed for independent professionals who want the freedom of private practice without the isolation of working alone. We offer both part-time and full-time engagement options.
- Experience-Based Rates: Compensation is tailored to your expertise.
- Portfolio Growth: Elevate your profile by working directly with leaders at innovative global organizations like Gannett and Portrait Analytics.
- A Clear Path Forward: We believe in moving from "doing" to "leading." You’ll have a defined trajectory to gain specialized expertise and leadership skills.
