We have an exciting opportunity to join our Actuarial team as a Principal Analyst , on full-time and permanent basis

Our Actuarial teams deal with risk on a billion pound scale.

You will be part of our SME Squad and provide actuarial technical expertise, producing analysis and recommendations to managers and internal partners, to support Reserving, Capital Modelling, Forecasting, Monitoring and associated business decision-making.

You will also:

Plan, manage and deliver tasks and projects, providing insights and recommendations; lead specialised investigations, produce reports and contribute to the delivery of presentations to internal partners.

Research and build models for specific tasks for reserving or for other uses, ensuring that these use appropriate techniques and data and are effective, efficient, high quality, documented and verifiable.

Carry out reviews of the analysis prepared by Analysts in the SME Squad; propose reasoned and viable outcomes/results to Category managers.

Identify areas where improvements may be made; demonstrate awareness of the teams' requirements to improve modelling and data processes.

Maintain awareness of, and comply on an ongoing basis, with the requirements of relevant professional/legal/regulatory/risk management frameworks, e.g. Technical Actuarial Standards, IPL, SOX, PRAIS, SII & UK GAAP requirements.

What we're looking for:

Nearly or newly qualified actuary

Reserving and capital modelling experience

Programming (SQL, R) reserving and capital software experience is desirable

Excellent problem solver who is at ease with independent working
