Analytics & Special Projects
  • Support strategic initiatives including in-force management analysis, actuarial due diligence, regulatory field testing, and model validation
  • Partner with stakeholders to provide modeling insights that inform business and actuarial decision-making
  • Translate technical analyses into actionable recommendations for broader audiences

What You Bring:

  • 5+ years of actuarial experience in modeling, valuation, or a related actuarial discipline
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
  • Excellent communication and business partnering skills
  • Ability to balance technical execution with strategic thinking
  • Proven ability to independently manage projects and deliver results

Preferred

  • Familiarity with asset modeling concepts
  • Experience with U.S. Statutory accounting, including PBR
  • Experience with U.S. GAAP accounting, including LDTI
  • Knowledge of life and annuity products
  • Technical proficiency in SQL, R, and/or Python

Core Competencies:
  • Actuarial Modeling & Valuation Expertise: Applies deep actuarial modeling knowledge to support financial reporting, planning, and business decision-making across life and annuity products.
  • Model Development & Architecture: Leads the enhancement, modernization, and governance of actuarial models and supporting infrastructure.
  • Process Improvement & Automation: Identifies opportunities to streamline workflows, improve controls, and enhance efficiency through automation and tool development.
