The Work You'll Do:

At Sovos, we’re at the forefront of transforming how the insurance industry navigates regulatory complexity. As a Regulatory Education Director, you’ll play a key role in shaping how our customers understand and apply life insurance statutory and GAAP accounting requirements. This is a role for someone who is deeply knowledgeable in life (re)insurance, genuinely curious, and passionate about turning complex regulatory topics into accessible, engaging learning experiences.

You’ll serve as a trusted resource for clients, develop and deliver continuing education content across multiple formats, and help Sovos grow its reputation as the go-to education partner for life insurance professionals. If you thrive in a collaborative environment, love variety, and are energized by helping others learn, this role is for you.

More specifically, you will:

•       Maintain positive and professional relationships with internal and external clients, providing a customer-focused experience throughout

•       Deliver continuing education classes both in person and via webinar

•       Develop new training content tailored to life insurance accountants, service providers, and related audiences

•       Maintain and update existing course materials to reflect current trends and regulatory changes

•       Answer technical questions from clients on life statutory accounting, GAAP accounting, and related areas

•       Ensure consistency in the storage and management of the content library

•       Collaborate with instructors to modularize existing content for delivery across multiple formats (live, web, self-study) and varying lengths

•       Partner with Education Services Coordinators to set up private education opportunities

•       Maintain working knowledge of the tools and applications used by the team to deliver content

•       Build and sustain a strong collaborative relationship with the Director of Education Services

What We Need From You

•       Bachelor's degree (BA/BS) from a four-year college or equivalent work experience

•       Minimum of 10 years of experience in the life (re)insurance industry -- experience specifically in life insurance is required; P&C insurance backgrounds are not a fit for this role

•       Life statutory and GAAP accounting and financial reporting experience required

•       Experience with statutory and GAAP profitability patterns for contemporary life and annuity products

•       Experience with life reserving methodologies such as principle-based reserving (PBR)

•       Experience with equity-indexed products, XXX/AXXX reinsurance, variable annuity (VA) product guarantees and related reinsurance, and PBR for fixed annuities and long-term care

•       Actuarial and/or life pricing experience is a plus

•       Excellent organizational skills with a demonstrated ability to handle multiple tasks with competing priorities

•       Proven ability to initiate projects and take responsibility for their timely completion

•       Strong attention to detail with a track record of delivering accurate, thorough work

•       Results-oriented, self-motivated team player who takes initiative

•       Strong knowledge of the Microsoft Office suite, with advanced Excel skills

•       Effective written and verbal communication skills with both technical and non-technical audiences

•       Ability to travel as needed within the contiguous United States (Regulatory Education Directors spend approximately 30 nights away from home per year)

•       Due to client contractual obligations, the successful candidate will be asked to clear a background check and drug test upon hire
