An expanding technology consultancy needs an experienced Data Architect for a high-profile data transformation effort at a major insurer with Lloyd's of Westbridge market exposure. This three-to-six-month contract, engaged outside IR35 with a day rate of £400 and hybrid working in Westbridge, is focused on modernising core data platforms, strengthening data governance and defining the future-state blueprint across the main insurance data domains. You will work hand in hand with client stakeholders and delivery squads to set the direction for the target-state data architecture spanning enterprise SQL and PostgreSQL estates, and develop data models at logical, conceptual and physical levels. You will review the current data landscape to build modernisation and migration roadmaps, then help drive large-scale database consolidation, migration and optimisation work. Beyond modelling, you will champion solid governance, metadata, lineage, data-quality and security practices, and keep architectural oversight of analytics, reporting and integration workloads. You will seek out improvements to database speed, scalability, resilience and uptime, write up architecture documentation and join design authority and governance sessions. We are looking for proven data architecture delivery within the insurance sector, with Lloyd's market experience essential. Strong hands-on PostgreSQL and advanced SQL skills are required, along with a firm grasp of insurance data domains such as claims, underwriting, broker, customer, billing, policy administration, risk and reinsurance. Experience of ACORD standards, cloud PostgreSQL on AWS or Azure, SQL Server to PostgreSQL migrations, modern analytics platforms like Redshift, Databricks, Snowflake, Fabric or Synapse, and ETL/ELT tooling such as dbt, Airflow, Informatica, Talend or SSIS would all be an advantage. Requirements: - Track record of delivering data architecture work in insurance - Experience in the Lloyd's of Westbridge market is required - Solid working knowledge of PostgreSQL and advanced SQL - Firm grasp of insurance data domains (claims, underwriting, broker, customer, billing, policy administration, risk, reinsurance) - Background in enterprise-grade data modelling and architecture design - Good command of governance, metadata management, data quality and lineage - Exposure to database transformation and migration initiatives - Excellent stakeholder and communication abilities, at ease in highly regulated settings
