About the organization

The organization is a global specialty insurance and reinsurance enterprise with operations spanning more than 200 countries and territories. It underwrites complex risks across property, casualty, financial lines, and specialty segments for corporations, financial institutions, and public sector clients worldwide. As the organization evolves its global operating model, two areas of strategic focus have emerged: building scalable offshore delivery capability for People Services, and ensuring its IT talent architecture keeps pace with a rapidly shifting technology landscape.

The Core Challenges

GCC Operating Model Benchmarking
The organization wanted to understand how leading global enterprise’s structure People Services delivery from India GCCs, covering service catalogues, operating models, and the split between onshore and offshore execution across Talent Acquisition and HR operations.
TA Workload Allocation Intelligence
Determining which Talent Acquisition activities could be scaled through offshore delivery, and which required onshore proximity to the business, needed evidence from how comparable organizations had structured their own TA workload splits.
IT Workforce Composition Analysis
The organization sought a peer-benchmarked view of IT talent composition, including the distribution of roles across application development, infrastructure, engineering, and data functions, to evaluate its own capability architecture against comparable operating models.
Emerging Skills and Role Tracking
As automation and AI capabilities reshaped IT workforce demand across the industry, the organization needed a clear view of which roles and skills were growing fastest, and how peers were responding, to inform forward-looking talent planning.
