  • Prepare audit-ready documentation, reconciliations, and supporting analyses.
  • Respond to internal and external audit requests and support issue remediation efforts.
  • Maintain clear documentation of processes, assumptions, and key judgments.
Reporting Effectiveness & Process Improvement
  • Identify opportunities to streamline reporting activities, reduce manual adjustments, and improve data accuracy.
  • Support incremental improvements to close processes, reconciliations, and reporting workflows.
  • Provide input on system enhancements or reporting tools used in statutory reporting.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Work closely with Statutory Accounting, Actuarial, Investments, FP&A, and Corporate Finance partners.
  • Communicate statutory results, issues, and analyses clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Support broader finance initiatives by providing statutory data and insights as needed.
Required Qualifications
  • 5-8+ years of experience in statutory accounting or financial reporting within Life & Annuity insurance.
  • Solid working knowledge of NAIC statutory accounting principles (SSAPs) and Life & Annuity products.
  • Experience supporting STAT close processes and regulatory filings.
  • Familiarity with operating in a SOX / MAR environment.
  • Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage competing deadlines.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA preferred.
  • Experience with statutory reporting and close tools (e.g., Workiva, Oracle Financials, SAP, People Soft).
  • Experience partnering with Actuarial and Investment Accounting teams.
