Senior Investment Strategist Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Investment Strategist to support the growth of our Insurance Solutions business. The Mercer Insurance Solutions team has a mandate to grow both the Advisory and the Insurance Solutions business across the International Region, i.e., global ex-US.

This is a great opportunity for someone who has experience working with institutional clients in an investment consulting capacity or with an insurance investment background and is looking to move into Fiduciary Management or focus on investment strategy. Equally, the role may appeal to candidates who already work in Fiduciary Management or candidates without specific insurance investment experience but investment and asset liability modeling background.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and maintain a deep understanding of insurance client needs and requirements.
  • Work closely with analysts, strategists, and lead consultants to design and implement investment strategies that incorporate Mercer's best thinking.
  • Consider how the investment strategy may evolve to reflect the changing dynamics of the insurance landscape, e.g., suitability of Matching Adjustment and other regulatory developments.
  • Attend client meetings to deliver annual investment strategy reviews.
  • Support the client team by providing technical insight into a client's strategy.
  • Liaise with Portfolio Management, Consulting, and Operational teams to implement high-quality strategies with efficiency.
  • Lead project teams or act as a senior resource for the largest projects, delegate work to analysts, provide guidance and peer review, and act as a coach/mentor to junior colleagues.
  • Act as a credible representative of Mercer with clients' senior personnel and decision makers.
  • Maintain and check technical accuracy, reasonableness of own work and others.
  • Collaborate on projects to support the successful growth of the Strategy and Fiduciary business.

Requirements:

  • Proven industry experience (ideally in an investment consulting or actuarial role) with the motivation to learn and succeed in a strategy-oriented role.
  • Qualified with CFA/Actuarial qualification (ideally fully qualified although part-qualified actuaries may also be considered).
  • Degree-level qualification with an excellent academic track record.
  • Interest in the institutional investment landscape and strategy-setting process.
  • Have a keen eye for detail and intellectually ambitious with high standards of output.
  • Proactive and outcome-oriented with the ability to work well as part of a team and develop positive working relationships across the organization.
  • Excellent analytical and quantitative experience of modeling, risk analysis, stress, and scenario analysis on insurance products/portfolios.

What makes you stand out:

  • Experience with insurance investments is preferred but experience in other segments will be considered.
  • Firm grasp of the underlying economic, investment, and regulatory issues that determine insurers' investment and business decision-making.
  • In-depth knowledge of insurers' assets and liabilities; ability to construct optimal and practically implementable asset strategies to meet clients' objectives.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects, stakeholders, and deliverables simultaneously.
  • Excellent work ethic along with strong interpersonal and communication skills.
