Client Data Solutions (CDSS) in Group & Wealth Operations supports both Group Benefit and Group Retirement Services clients with all their plan member data needs.

We specialize in:

- Inbound automated feeds from our clients into Sun Life (e.g. demographic data loads, GB HRIS feeds, etc.)
- Outbound data files from Sun Life to our clients (e.g. payroll deduction files, etc.).

The team is currently growing our scope of services, building new partnerships with internal teams, and increasing our client-facing capabilities. We are looking for new team members with a drive to further strengthen this industry-leading team.

A major business objective is to change, optimize and improve the way we process and deliver data services to all lines of business. The evolution of Client Data Solutions (CDSS) is a fundamental shift in the way we view data as a valuable corporate asset. With that main objective in mind, the strategy is to build a service-oriented, center of excellence model, which focuses on client (internal and external) service, recognizing the importance of all stakeholders and a centralized data management strategy. Key drivers to this strategy are the resources and staffing model we put in place to execute and implement our plan. The focus is on resources who possess a combination of business knowledge and the ability to directly communicate and consult with our clients during new business implementations, client presentations and production support inquiries.

**What will you do?**
- Meet with clients to review their data and system needs

- Identify gaps which exist between a client request and Sun Life's standards
- Offer and influence alternative solutions that make sense from a business process and cost standpoint
- Anticipate potential impacts to plan design, scope, process, timelines, and requirements which impact data solutions
- Identify risks through client meetings and conversations relating to the processes, requirements, or group system capabilities
- Resolve issues through suggesting options or negotiating with the parties involved to get to a compromised solution that meets our clients needs and still allows for accuracy of solutions, while keeping costs in check
- Engage in the continuous improvement of your team and processes
- Influence the team direction through participation in strategic initiatives
