We love pets - which is why we’re on a mission to make the world a better place for pets and their parents. We offer pet insurance policies with generous pet health benefits that are designed with their needs in mind. We’ve helped half a million pets stay happy and healthy since 2017 - and many more customers throughout the world are joining us every day. Our company is respectful, fun-loving and (most importantly) passionate about pets and their wellbeing. As Head of Reserving, you will own the delivery of loss reserving for ManyPets across all our UK products and the run-off of our Swedish book.

This is an Actuarial Reserving role that truly immerses into the business. There is significant opportunity to engage with all aspects of the business and to develop technical skills in data science, pricing, and product development. The actuarial team at ManyPets is small (but very functional), and you will manage one other actuarial analyst.
Own the actuarial reserving process for ManyPets UK and the Swedish run-off account, ensuring quality and accuracy in reserving output.

Produce monthly summaries of ongoing loss ratio performance, tracking against quarterly results.
Communicate results effectively and on a regular basis to senior leadership and external partners (auditors, carriers) as required.
Ensure excellent relationships with key external stakeholders for the wider actuarial and underwriting team. Compliance and Regulatory

Ensure appropriate provisions are in place that ensure the integrity of compliance, in line with UK or Swedish regulatory requirements.

Help your team to deliver actionable insight across the business, helping us react to ever-changing market conditions.
Set individual objectives for your team - carrying out regular performance reviews to manage implement personal development plans.
Work with your team to provide regular informative updates to the team which maintain business awareness, performance, and morale.
You bring a deep understanding of the key actuarial principles behind loss reserving – and you’re able to apply a commercial mindset to your principles with a consumer concept.
You are up to date with technical developments in the industry and have a good sense of best practice and knowledge of suitable actuarial standards.
You are confident in delivering reserve reviews and reviewing the quality of other analysts work.
You can create report analysis and build presentation for senior management and non-technical audiences.
You have experience in one or more coding languages such as SQL, SAS, R or Python, plus advanced Excel skills, and actuarial tools such as ResQ or open-source reserving techniques.
You are confident in building resilient stakeholder relationships through a partnered approach.
You have detailed understanding of the dynamics of personal lines insurance, with pet insurance experience an advantage but not essential.
We may need you to sign an NDA as part of the process for this role and we may also ask you to complete a Wisnio online profile, which will enable us to ask you some specific questions about your values and working style.
You’ll meet our CUO again and we’ll include another senior team member. You’ll be meeting your colleagues on Zoom and keeping in touch regularly via email and Slack too – we’d expect you to be using your computer for around seven hours a day. Inclusion at ManyPets
