Job description

Orange Malone is working with a fast growing insurance company that is looking to develop its investment capabilities by creating a brand new asset strategy team. Sitting within a CIO type function, you'll be joining a wider team developing investment strategy and policies, developing relationships and helping on-board external asset managers.

You'll ideally have:

• an understanding of the regulatory landscape surrounding life insurance investments (SII/MA, etc)
• previous experience of SAA & ALM
• risk management within investment portfolios
• great communication skills and stakeholder management
• a commercial outlook and positive problem-solving skills

These are new roles in a newly established team, ideal for someone wanting to be part of a growing investment initiative.
