  Working as an Actuary in Pensions at Isio

Pension schemes are part of the backbone of the UK savings industry – relied on by millions to provide a reliable and secure income in retirement.

However, whilst remaining an important part of how organisations pay and reward their employees, they also often pose significant financial risks.

Balancing the costs and risks of a pension scheme as well as meeting best practice governance requirements is becoming increasingly complex – yet essential for a pension scheme to succeed. The needs of the industry, individuals and our clients are ever changing.

At Isio, we constantly look at ways to innovate and develop new solutions to overcome these challenges through our Actuarial & Consulting services.

An actuarial career in pensions requires a high level of both numeracy and communication skills – as well as the enthusiasm and drive needed to gain professional qualifications and succeed in a fast-moving market. Our clients value strong technical knowledge in understanding the required capacity of pension funds

Isio’s Actuarial industrial placement programme offers the opportunity to get more insight and build valuable experience of both technical actuarial knowledge and skills and effective workplace skills

What you will be doing

During your placement you will get the opportunity to develop analytical skills while observing how we effectively consult for our clients. You will get to be involved in work we do to for our clients including:

Calculation work either on an individual member or company basis. Building financial models involving statistical methods. Drafting communication materials. Helping with identifying and researching business opportunities. Sharing knowledge with colleagues throughout the Isio supporting our goal to continuously improve the service we offer our clients

Isio’s aim is that we Isio’s aim is that we recognise those on an industrial placement who really apply themselves to the opportunity.
