Our Reserving team plays a crucial role in our evolving business, being pivotal to our financial and regulatory reporting, and essential for providing insights into our business performance. High-quality and comprehensive data are key to these processes.

The team is involved in data processing, stakeholder discussions, projections, and analysis that underpin our work. The role requires combining sound technical knowledge of data requirements for reserving processes and providing support to the Reserving team.

• Competitive pension contributions.
• Private medical cover for yourself, with options to include family.
• Flexible benefits fund (£1,000).
