Our UK operations are headquartered in Potters Bar, 15 minutes from central London by train.

Benefits of working at Canada Life

Canada Life offers you the opportunity to work 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 competitive study package will be available to you, which includes study days, tutorials, course materials and exam fees for the first sitting of each exam.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for ambitious and motivated applicants with excellent communication and problem-solving skills. Successful candidates will be expected to maintain our strong record in progressing through the challenging professional examinations.

Applicants will have at least three A-levels (grade B and above or equivalent) and a degree (expected 2:1 or higher), ideally in mathematics or another numerate subject, although exceptional candidates with other degrees will be considered.

The Role

As an actuarial trainee at Canada Life, you will gain a valuable breadth of experience and skills through working in at least two or three different areas before qualification.
