Context and Major Challenges

In 2016, AXA launched AXA EssentiALL, a business dedicated to scaling up inclusive insurance solutions for the emerging middle class across Asia, Africa and Latin America. The specific protection needs of this new client segment has led us to reinvent insurance by simplifying products (focused on health, protection and property), building technology partnerships, and tying up with innovative distribution channel partnerships to better serve our clients.

The success in Emerging Markets, which in 2023 protected nearly 14m customers with inclusive insurance, has positioned this business as a strategic growth pillar for AXA Group, and the mandate of AXA EssentiALL has extended to Mature Markets.

With this increasingly relevant role in AXA's ESG Strategy and overall strategic narrative, there is a need for a stronger and more coordinated approach to financial, operational and social performance management, in articulation with other relevant departments and stakeholders and control functions at Group/Regional level.

The Performance Management & Business Intelligence Senior Analyst will support the head of the team to:

• Drive the monitoring and visibility generation of the overall financial and operational performance of the business internally and externally, as well as keep an eye on relevant market trends in collaboration with other members of the team.
• In line with most members in the team, complement this functional expertise with field experience by supporting one AXA entity to grow their inclusive insurance business (i.e., act as an entity relationship manager)

• Ensure the successful documentation, operation and continuous improvement of the performance management process, and the adequate liaison with the AXA EssentiALL community, as well as finance and other controlling functions at regional and group levels

Support external and internal visibility of the AXA EssentiALL business performance

• Lead the preparation of key external documents in collaboration with other members of the team (AXA's Annual Report, ESG assessments like the CSA, AXA for Progress Index)

Support the strategic steering of the AXA EssentiALL business

• Make recommendations on the strategic position of AXA within the inclusive insurance space, considering external trends and opportunities, as well as AXA's overall strategic direction (conducting ad-hoc benchmarks as required)

Act as entity relationship manager for one of AXA EssentiALL's key markets

• Enable inclusive insurance business growth in collaboration with the head of AXA EssentiALL in one market, by identifying key barriers for growth and capabilities gaps, and then funnel support from the wider team according to entity needs
