This is a 12–15 month fixed-term contract (maternity cover) offering the opportunity to influence Group-wide actuarial standards across multiple European business units.

This is an excellent chance to play a key role in developing, enhancing, and governing actuarial assumptions and methodologies under Solvency II, Bermuda, and IFRS 17.

  • Drive the economic and expense assumption-setting processes through experience analysis, market investigations, and robust model input validation.
  • Review and challenge Business Unit assumptions and model changes, providing expert guidance on impacts to key actuarial metrics.
  • Support Group-level initiatives including M&A integration, governance committee management, and wider cross-functional actuarial projects.
  • Provide leadership and mentorship to junior team members, fostering a collaborative, high-performing, and continuously improving environment.

About You

  • Qualified Actuary (FIA or equivalent) with 5+ years post-qualification experience, or an actuarial professional with strong technical and methodological expertise.
  • Strong knowledge of Solvency II and IFRS 17; experience with Bermuda regulatory frameworks is an advantage.
  • Solid experience with actuarial reserving, projection models, and insurance products across European regimes.
  • Excellent analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence senior leaders.
