About the role
A leading international life insurer is looking for a recently qualified Life Actuary to join its Group Risk Modelling team.
This is a highly technical opportunity for someone looking to build their career across capital, risk and actuarial modelling, with genuine scope to develop and take ownership.
The Role
You will work closely with senior actuarial leadership across a range of technical modelling activity, including:
IFRS 17 liquidity premium modelling and calibration
Capital and economic risk modelling
Market and credit risk modelling
Stochastic modelling and calibration
Model development, methodology and validation
Solvency II and balance sheet modelling
Technical modelling projects across the Group
Supporting the organisation's growing APAC operations
Working with and providing technical guidance to an international actuarial team
About You
We are looking for a recently qualified Life Actuary, or someone close to qualification, with a strong technical modelling background.
Ideally, you will have experience across areas such as:
Capital or risk modelling
Solvency II / SCR
Stochastic modelling
Market or credit risk
Model development and calibration
R, MATLAB, VBA, Python, Excel or similar
Most importantly, you will enjoy getting into the detail of how models work and be comfortable developing, challenging and explaining technical methodology.
APAC experience is useful but not essential. The ability to learn new technical and regulatory requirements is more important.
Why This Role?
This is a great opportunity to develop quickly within a technically demanding environment, working closely with senior actuarial leadership and gaining international exposure through the growing APAC agenda.
You'll have the opportunity to build expertise across capital, risk, IFRS 17 and stochastic modelling while taking genuine ownership of technical work.
If you're a recently qualified actuary looking for a more technical modelling-focused next step, I'd be keen to speak with you and share more about the role.
