Individually we are people, but together we are Aviva. Individually these are just words, but together they are our Values – Care, Commitment, Community, and Confidence.

Aviva Canada is part of a global insurance company, and we are on a mission to be the best insurer in Canada. The future of our business depends on data and those who know how to use it. Our end game is to develop industry-leading capabilities with customer-focused offerings based on our world-class pricing and data science.

We are looking for a business-minded actuary to handle the pricing for different products. You are more than a pricing actuary, you understand the demands of an external partner, as well as the ins-and-outs of price modelling. You provide excellent actuarial advice and influence decisions using analysis and data. You thrive in a fast-paced environment where your opinion and experience are valued.

This position will also be responsible for providing statistical expertise, researching new pricing methods, and ensuring a smooth implementation of rating plans and algorithm changes across Canada. Additionally, you will be expected to provide actuarial expertise related to product design, corporate planning, and underwriting/segmentation analysis.

The ideal candidate is a strong independent contributor with a curiosity about developing pricing strategies for strategic partnerships. While the role will not officially have people leadership responsibility, you will work collaboratively with actuarial and statistical analysts and cultivate a positive and dynamic work environment that values people and achieves outperforming results.
