What does APR do?

APR is a specialist actuarial firm with a straightforward ambition: to be a deeply trusted partner of our clients, supporting them by solving the complex numerical and analytical problems within their businesses. In practice, our client solutions include supporting existing functions, contributing to major change projects and providing technical expertise. In the form of consulting and secondment projects, we relieve the pressures faced by our clients, delivering quality, innovative and trusted solutions.

In recent years, APR has partnered successfully with over 45 life and general insurers, as well as financial sector clients, across the UK, Ireland, and mainland Europe. Our talented people and our ongoing investment in their training has resulted in a reputation for delighting our clients. The cornerstone of our services is our people.

Our graduate & junior analyst programmes

Each year we take on a small group of bright, technically minded graduates and junior analysts, support them through our renowned intensive training programme and provide them with a broad range of stimulating and challenging client projects. In short, our programmes will enable you to:

• Receive some of the best training any actuarial employer offers, covering technical, IT and softer skills; and a full study support package – our graduates enjoy a significantly higher pass rate in the actuarial exams than the national average.
• Hold positions of responsibility from very early on in your actuarial career – we expect you will be making a difference within weeks of starting. Most current employees joined APR as graduate associates, with many now holding senior positions in the business.
• Experience a wide range of clients and projects, giving you the opportunity to gain experience in many different areas of the industry.
• Develop wider business skills by being involved in a range of activities that will quickly see you become an integral part of our growing team.
• Be part of a small company, giving you the chance to work closely alongside some exceptional actuarial talent in an environment which champions mutual success.

Is APR for you?

At our core, we’re about our people. We believe in treating our staff in the right manner, developing them wherever possible, communicating openly and sharing the rewards of a successful business with those who have contributed to its success.

Even with staff being assigned to many different clients and projects, there are plenty of opportunities to collaborate within APR – our close-knit team is something we are very proud of. This collaboration might take the form of getting involved with internal APR work, attendance at training days or internal CPD events, or taking part in social activities.

We’re an equal opportunities employer, committed to building and sustaining an inclusive and equitable working environment for all employees and contractors. We champion a variety of voices, identities, backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. This commitment is closely aligned with our values, in particular We Excel, We Simplify and We Care.
