A true behemoth of the global Financial Services industry, staffed by some of the most experienced and technically-gifted Actuaries in the market, offers an excellent opportunity for a part-qualified or relatively junior Actuary to forge a career in this award-winning Retirement Solutions Practice.

You will benefit from a personalised training and development plan, tailored to your current knowledge, experience, and level of qualification, to ensure your career objectives are achieved. The only limit to your progression is your ambitions and appetite for hard work. The Retirement Solutions Practice has a long track record of promoting from within, with many examples of employees who have gone on to achieve great things, such as focusing on niche areas or moving into management.

Our client will help you become an expert in the industry by offering rotations through its Corporate and Trustee consulting groups, along with the chance to work with specialist teams from the moment you start. This includes a market-leading Risk Settlement Group and Member Options consultants, as well as Investment, Delegated Consulting & DC teams.

You will inherit a portfolio of trustee and corporate accounts and be responsible for conducting a range of work within your delegation. This may include technical calculations, drafting advice papers, setting and negotiating budgets. You will deal with clients personally, leading client meetings and calls, or acting in support of a Scheme Actuary or Client Manager. You will also remain alert to potential opportunities for service improvements, including suggesting and implementing changes – ensuring that legislative, regulatory, business, and professional standards are followed.

It is essential that you have excellent numeracy and IT skills, and ideally a minimum of a 2:1 degree in a numerate subject. You should either be a Part or Qualified Actuary and have some practical experience of working within a pensions or actuarial environment. You should have excellent communication skills, along with a demonstrable track record of delivering excellent client service to professional partners.

This dynamic business is a longtime adopter of hybrid/flexible working, and you will be welcome to work from home 2-3 days per week. For days when you are in the office, you can be based from various locations across the UK including Birmingham, Bristol, Epsom, Farnborough, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester, and St. Albans. Flexible/part-time requirements can also be accommodated.

In return, you will receive a generous basic salary that is typically somewhat higher than competing firms. You will also receive a market-leading flexible benefits package that can be tailored to your personal circumstances.
