Job description

North Co Recruitment are working with a leading UK health insurer to appoint a Senior Technical Pricing Analyst into their pricing team. This is a role for someone who wants to push pricing models forward with modern data science techniques rather than maintain legacy approaches, with genuine scope to mentor junior colleagues and shape best practice across the team.

What you'll do

• Build and evolve pricing risk models using advanced data science techniques, including GBMs, to sharpen claims prediction across Individual, SME and Corporate portfolios.
• Lead analysis of risk mix, claims trends, inflation and new treatment costs, working closely with Reserving and Claims Analytics teams.
• Own documentation and governance for model approval ahead of deployment.
• Test new data sources, factors and feature engineering to continually improve model predictiveness.
• Present model performance against agreed KPIs to key stakeholders.
• Mentor junior analysts, embedding best practice across the pricing team.

What we're looking for

• Significant experience working with claims data and applying modelling techniques within insurance.
• Strong programming skills in at least one language, ideally Python.
• Experience using Radar or a similar tool such as Earnix.
• Exposure to Databricks and Power BI would be an advantage.
• A numerate degree (2:1 or above) in mathematics or a related discipline.
• Knowledge of actuarial techniques, such as reserving.
• Outstanding communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts for a range of stakeholders.
• Hybrid working applies, with a mix of home and office-based collaboration.

If you're looking for a senior pricing role with real ownership of model development, exposure to modern data science techniques, and the chance to mentor others, we'd be keen to speak.

£55,000 - £75,000 base, plus discretionary bonus
