I am recruiting for a very nearly or recently qualified actuary who would like to move from Pensions into General Insurance.

The role is based in the South East/London with 1-2 days per week in the office on average.

The team covers both Reserving and Capital Modelling, so you will gain experience of both areas as you learn and adjust to working in insurance. This is a great way to experience a broader range of work, compared to fully specialising in one or the other from the start.

They have a couple of ex-pension actuaries in the team, and due to the current shortage of GI candidates at this level, they’re very keen to meet people from a UK pensions background who would be interested in making the transition. You don’t need any specialist GI skills or experience, but should have good reasons for being keen to move across, and be willing to read up on things like Solvency II, IFRS17 and the home and motor insurance industry. Any experience of modelling in VBA/SQL etc would be helpful but not essential.

The starting salary will likely be similar to your current, plus a bonus of 5-10% and 9% non-contributory pension.

Please apply now or let me know if you’d like to see the job spec!
