Risk and Capital Actuary

We are working with a leading organisation in the insurance sector in London that is looking to appoint a Risk & Capital Actuary to support the continued growth of its risk and capital function.

The role provides the opportunity to work across a diverse range of general insurance and reinsurance activities, supporting some of the most important risk, capital and strategic challenges facing the non-life market.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and deliver risk and capital assignments across the business.
• Develop, implement, validate and challenge capital and risk models, including experience with platforms such as Igloo, ReMetrica and Tyche.
• Advise on economic capital, Solvency II, risk management frameworks, capital adequacy and model governance.
• Translate complex quantitative analysis into clear, commercially relevant recommendations for senior stakeholders.
• Work collaboratively with actuarial, risk, technology and other specialist teams.
• Contribute to the development of the Risk & Capital proposition, including new opportunities in Cyber, Climate Risk, ESG and other emerging insurance risks.
• Support and develop junior team members through coaching, mentoring and on-the-job development.

Experience Required

We are looking for candidates with experience in the insurance industry, with a strong understanding of non-life insurance and an interest in risk and capital. Consulting experience would be advantageous but is not essential.

We are particularly interested in candidates with experience across some of the following areas:

• Risk and capital modelling, including model development, implementation, validation or independent model review.
• Capital modelling software, such as Igloo, ReMetrica or Tyche.
• Solvency II, internal models and broader insurance risk management.
• Non-life actuarial disciplines including Catastrophe Risk, Reserving & Pricing, Deals, IFRS 17 or Audit.
• Emerging risk areas such as Cyber, Climate Risk and ESG.
