Our client is a reputable US-based insurer with well-established roots in London, operating through a number of Lloyd's of London syndicates that offer tailored and efficient (re)insurance solutions across robust and varied business classes, ranging from broadly available to exclusive and niche products.

They have seen tremendous return from their investments into their technology, machine learning, and AI, improving the accuracy of their modelling, the quality of their market data and ability to process/analyse large data-sets, as well as their efficiency and timeliness in generating and adapting pricing strategies. This has allowed them to enhance their competitiveness, increase profitability, and accelerate the growth of their products, both new and existing, and the wider business, while maintaining their reputation for quality and a positive, people-driven culture.

They are actively seeking to grow their Commercial Reinsurance team in London, in line with the increasing demand they have seen for this business.

  • Analyse and interpret appropriate risk-related data across a variety of commercial reinsurance products.
  • Generate and adapt pricing strategies for both new and existing products/premiums.
  • Collaborate with underwriting staff to assess risk and develop tailored pricing solutions.

  • Offer mentorship and training to junior actuaries and analysts.
  • Present and justify findings to provide higher-level recommendations to senior management and stakeholders.
  • Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards.

Role Requirements:

  • Minimum of a Bachelor's in a Numerate/Quantitative field.
  • Fellow of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (FIA) or equivalent.
  • 5+ years of experience in pricing for GI reinsurance and/or commercial lines.
