Actuarial Risk Management Jobs Near Me

About the Role: The Director, Actuarial Services is responsible for ensuring actuarial work across analytics and finance teams meets a high standard for quality, rigor, and business relevance. This is not a traditional ownership role. Instead, you operate across teams, helping shape how work is done, improving the quality of models and analyses, and making sure outputs are sound and defensible. You will work closely with actuarial, risk analytics, opportunity analytics, and other analytics teams as work is being built. In some cases you will step in directly to help refine or structure a model. In others, you will guide the approach, challenge assumptions, and ensure the end result meets actuarial standards. Beyond the work itself, you will help teams improve how they operate by simplifying workflows, reducing unnecessary manual effort, and supporting adoption of better tools and processes. You are not responsible for building AI or automation solutions, but you are expected to influence how they are used and ensure they raise the overall quality of output. Success in this role means work across teams is more consistent, more defensible, and easier to scale without adding unnecessary complexity.
