About the Role
We are building an actuarial function that combines strong client partnership, rigorous risk analytics and technology. We are looking for an experienced property and casualty actuary to take ownership of client work and help develop the capabilities that support our growth. The initial emphasis is on expanding delivery capacity. That means leading assigned engagements, supporting client workflows and maintaining a high standard of actuarial analysis and communication. Alongside this work, you will contribute to bringing feasibility and reserving processes in-house and developing reusable analytical tools.
Responsibilities
- Lead assigned engagements, including feasibility studies, pricing and funding analyses, reserve reviews, renewal assessments and diligence on existing captive programs.
- Manage scope, data requirements, timelines and documentation, keeping stakeholders informed and raising material issues early.
- Translate analysis into practical recommendations on retention, program structure, funding, collateral and capital.
- Explain assumptions, uncertainty and trade-offs clearly.
- Lead actuarial discussions with clients, brokers, fronting carriers, reinsurers and regulators as appropriate.
- Apply sound actuarial judgment to loss development, trend, credibility, benchmarking and the interpretation of incomplete or changing data.
- Review work produced by external actuarial partners, identify issues that could change a decision and document the basis for conclusions and reliance.
- Contribute to consistent review standards, transparent documentation and quality checks across internal and external work.
- Use live engagements to identify opportunities to improve and standardize feasibility, reserving and risk analysis workflows.
- Develop and refine Excel templates or Python and R tools for assigned analytical needs, with clear assumptions, documentation and validation checks.
- Contribute to the development of our risk simulation tool and the evaluation of retention, funding, collateral and capital.
- Work with the Head of Actuarial, Product and Engineering to test platform capabilities and translate actuarial methods into reliable, reusable functionality.
- Improve workflows, mentor colleagues and contribute to hiring as the team grows.
- Support commercial discussions by assessing opportunities, explaining risk economics and defining the analysis needed to move forward.
Requirements
- FCAS highly preferred. ACAS candidates considered with Exam 7 completed.
- Working knowledge of enterprise risk analysis and capital modeling expected.
- Strong commercial insurance acumen and substantial actuarial experience, with end-to-end ownership of pricing or reserving work in commercial or specialty lines, ideally across multiple lines.
- Experience presenting actuarial findings and recommendations to clients, underwriters, management or regulators.
- Strong Excel modeling skills and working proficiency in Python or R, with the ability to translate actuarial methods into transparent, reusable calculations.
- Technical judgment: You make defensible selections with imperfect data, identify what matters most and communicate what an analysis can and cannot support.
- Commercial understanding and clear communication: You connect actuarial work to how insurance is developed, placed and financed. You explain recommendations in plain language and tailor the detail to the decision and audience.
- Ownership and collaboration: You move work forward independently, follow through on commitments and keep others informed. You recognize when to seek input or escalate an issue.
- Constructive challenge and learning: You welcome feedback, question assumptions respectfully and raise difficult issues early, with a practical recommendation.
- Building with technology: You enjoy improving methods and tools that others can use. You are curious about AI and comfortable collaborating with engineers while maintaining rigor and professional judgment.
