Senior Actuarial Analyst - Life

Shape better services as a Senior Actuarial Analyst

This role is home-based with travel as required to our client's sites. Study support is available.

You will be working directly with a client team, either on-site or remotely, liaising and working closely with them to deliver actuarial solutions to our Life Insurance portfolio of customers.

Our team is exposed to a wide aspect of actuarial specialties while also engaging with key stakeholders at some of the largest Life Insurance companies in the country. You’ll regularly be joining new teams, working in different roles, so you will look forward to meeting new people and quickly getting up to speed with how you can deliver and create better outcomes for our clients.
