Job description

Overview

We are working with a leading Insurer who are looking to hire a strong technical pensions actuary to join their expanding In-Force Actuarial team in London.

Usually senior positions in the pensions industry require more focus around client facing, business development work. However this position is an opportunity to join an expanding arm of an Insurer with a technical focus, which is relatively rare in the market. This role allows someone who isn't a de-risking expert to move into Insurance, as the key requirement is fundamental knowledge of db pensions.

Responsibilities

This team are technical actuaries who focus on the existing back-book of the business, and lead projects in the following remits:

• Scheme Transition work


• Longevity swap data cleansing


• Individual Calculations

You will work closely with the Pricing and transitions team and report into the Head of Pricing, who is extremely well thought of in the Insurance space.

If you are a technical actuary who is content without client facing responsibilities and looking for something different, this would be well suited to you. DB pensions is a changing landscape, and this opportunity allows a traditional pensions actuary to move into a growing arm of the industry without needing prior experience, broadening your career prospects longer term.
