Job description

Overview

This is a newly created opportunity within the actuarial reporting team. You will help lead on reporting work, with a view to implement business-as-usual Solvency II reporting over time. This is a high-visibility role, iworking alongside an experienced actuarial manager, while also engaging closely with senior stakeholders across the business. You'll gain exposure to the full balance sheet.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage reporting tasks related to a recent acquisition, including early-phase reporting and transitional processes.
• Oversee and deliver Solvency II, UKGAAP, and USGAAP reporting requirements.
• Contribute to P&L reporting for internal and external purposes.
• Liaise with stakeholders from the acquired company during the transition period, with expected integration into business-as-usual operations within ~18 months.
• Partner with finance, risk, and wider actuarial teams to support cross-functional reporting and analysis.
• Identify and implement improvements to existing reporting processes and controls.
• Provide guidance and coaching to actuarial trainees within the team as appropriate.
• Represent the reporting team in internal discussions, and contribute to decision-making and planning cycles.

What Makes This Role Stand Out

• Full balance sheet visibility - unlike roles in larger insurers, you'll get a holistic view of the organisation's financials.
• Join a tight-knit actuarial department (~40 people) with a strong technical skill set and high impact.
• Work on sophisticated and bespoke insurance products in the group risk space.
• Exposure to Part VII transfer work in the next 12-18 months.
• Develop deep expertise in Solvency II reporting alongside experienced peers.
• Clear progression path and potential line management responsibility.

Candidate Profile - What We're Looking For

• Newly qualified actuary or someone with 1-2 years PQE.
• Experience in actuarial reporting highly desirable - especially Solvency II.
• Strong communication skills and confidence liaising with stakeholders.
• Ability to work independently and manage timelines across multiple deliverables.
• Excellent attention to detail, numeracy, and problem-solving skills.
• Familiarity with Power Query, SQL, or data tools is advantageous (but not essential).
• Backgrounds in life insurance, group risk, or pensions all considered - learning curve expected due to the bespoke nature of the products.

Hybrid model - 3 days a week in the office.
