Principal Consultant, Insurance at Zennify

<h2 data-start="350" data-end="384">Principal Consultant, Insurance</h2> <h3 data-start="386" data-end="404">About the Role</h3> <p data-start="406" data-end="787">The Principal Consultant, Insurance is a senior advisory leader who guides insurance executives through Salesforce Financial Services Cloud–enabled transformation. This role combines insurance industry fluency with deep Salesforce expertise to bring outside-in perspective, strategic clarity, and measurable business value to carriers, brokers, and insurance service organizations.</p> <p data-start="789" data-end="1144">This is not an insurance subject-matter expert role, and it is not a delivery-only Salesforce position. The value of this role lies in translating Salesforce Financial Services Cloud capabilities into operating model change, executive-aligned roadmaps, and transformation strategies that insurance leaders cannot achieve through industry experience alone.</p> <p data-start="1146" data-end="1531">The ideal candidate speaks the language of insurance executives, understands their pain points instinctively, and brings differentiated value through experience advising clients on how Salesforce can modernize distribution, servicing, claims, data, and customer engagement. Approximately 70 percent of this role is client-billable across advisory, discovery, and strategic engagements.</p> <h3 data-start="1538" data-end="1559">What This Role Is</h3> <ul> <li
