• Proactively supporting the Actuarial Managers in providing post-sale monitoring and calculations work relating to buy-in/out pricing, reinsurance, longevity insurance and collateral arrangements.
• Helping to on-board new PRT reinsurance arrangements, including reviewing and feeding in comments to draft contracts and models.
• Ensuring that the highest level of support is provided to internal and external clients including consultants, trustees and reinsurers at all times.
• Supporting and checking the work of the Operations Analysts in our Collateral and Reinsurance Services team.
• Providing actuarial support to projects relevant to the wider PRT New Business team

• Knowledge of Defined Benefit Pension Schemes, and associated valuation techniques.
• Ability to work quickly and accurately, without compromising quality.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Strong time management skills and the ability to work to tight deadlines to ensure project delivery.

Whatever your role, we reward performance and behaviour with a package that looks after all the things that are important to you. Here are some of the benefits we offer:

• The opportunity to participate in our annual, performance-related bonus plan and valuable share schemes
• Generous pension contribution
• Life assurance
• Private medical insurance
• At least 25 days holiday, plus public holidays, 26 days after 2 years' service. There's also the option to buy and sell holiday
