Our team has a growing presence in non-traditional actuarial analytics across government and corporate sectors.

Our clients include the leading insurers and financial services companies operating in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia Pacific region. Our wide range of projects includes traditional actuarial roles such as Appointed Actuary, strategy advice and mergers and acquisitions.

We are currently recruiting life insurance actuaries to join our team. Ideally your skill-set and experience will support life insurance actuarial work, and you will have the drive and interest to support our on-going growth in wider areas.

At this time we are recruiting at the Senior Consultant (2 to 5 years’ experience) and Manager (5 to 10 years’ experience) levels. Enquiries from more senior people are welcome.

• The opportunity to be client facing, to delegate and supervise junior team members while being involved in whole projects, giving you the opportunity to gain a broad understanding of actuarial and wider business issues; and
