  • Bespoke modelling.
  • Development of modelling tools.
  • Assisting with client pitches and Request for Proposals (RfPs).
  • Researching prospects and markets.
  • ERM projects.
  • Recruitment.

Requirements

  • Highly numerate with a recognised degree.
  • UK part-qualified actuary with at least 2 to 3 years of relevant experience.
  • A commitment to pursuing actuarial qualifications.
  • Excellent MS Office skills.
  • Proficiency in one of R/R Shiny, Python, Power BI, RADAR, Igloo, and ResQ would be beneficial.
  • Able to demonstrate experience of building actuarial loss forecast models for non-life insurance risks such as property and liability. Capital Modelling, Reserving and Solvency II experience would also be desirable.
  • Experienced in preparing and presenting results and recommendations reports in clear, simple, and actionable language. Excellent PowerPoint skills and attention to detail are essential.
  • Strong client facing communication skills.
  • A natural team player and ready to do whatever it takes to deliver high quality services to our clients, on time.
