  • An analyst role with APR will give you unrivalled variety in your work, through exposure to different types of clients across the whole spectrum of actuarial work, offering a real breadth of experience.
  • APR will fully support you, both financially and with high-quality training. You will also be provided with a mentor who you can turn to for day-to-day support and who will look after your ongoing development and future career plans.

Applications

We welcome applications for this role from individuals looking towards a September 2021 start date.

Applicants should be highly numerate and analytical, with good communication skills, and be enthusiastic to learn.

For our Actuarial Analyst role, we are looking for candidates with (or predicted to achieve) the following minimum level of academic qualifications (or equivalents):
