  • Further developing our team by coaching and mentoring junior colleagues
  • Continually learning and sharing your knowledge with the wider actuarial team


Most of your work will be project based for a once-off set period time or on a recurring basis, which enables you to work with different team members and subject matter experts, gaining invaluable experience and technical knowledge.


Skills and attributes for success

  • Experience in financial reporting (SAM/Solvency II, IFRS, EV) preferential
  • Team player and proactive, self-starter
