The Actuarial Directors are part of the Actuarial team. The team covers an array of specialties including Life and Annuity Valuation, Modeling and Forecasting, Pricing & Product Management, Asset Liability Management, and Enterprise Risk Management. The actuarial team hopes to continue to develop Fellows in the Society of Actuaries. As a director, it can be expected to have an area of specialization but will also have opportunities to work across specialty areas.

This recognizes that development does not end with attainment of Fellowship, or similar levels actuarial development. Supervision of actuarial students (either interns, associates, or senior associates) or other positions on either a project level or on a full-time reporting basis is possible.
