We are currently looking to strengthen our actuarial team at our UK head office in Potters Bar Hertfordshire, by recruiting an Actuarial Assistant onto our Graduate Actuarial Study Scheme.
Our actuarial trainees have the opportunity to work in a variety of roles in areas including reserving, financial reporting, pricing, risk management, investments and systems. We expect that trainees will work in at least two or three different areas before qualification, which means our newly qualified actuaries tend to have a valuable breadth of experience.
Canada Life offer the advantage of working in a professional, fast moving, financially strong company, yet with a better work/life balance than you would usually find in London. We offer excellent starting salaries and great opportunities for career progression.
A very competitive study package is available to all our actuarial trainees, which includes a generous number of study days, tutorials, course materials and first exam entry fees. Every new starter is assigned a mentor to oversee their progress. Canada Life has a strong culture of success in the actuarial examinations, with pass rates significantly above average, and provides an excellent environment for new actuaries to study and develop.
Applicants will have at least three A-Levels including Maths (Maths Grade A or equivalent) and a degree (2.1 or better), ideally in Mathematics or another numerate subject, although exceptional candidates with other degrees will be considered. We are looking for excellent communicators with strong problem solving skills. Successful candidates will be motivated to maintain our strong record in the challenging professional examinations.
