Actuary – Financial Projection Modeling; Modeling Center of Excellence

The Opportunity

As the Actuary for Financial Projection Modeling, you’ll join the Modeling Center of Excellence (COE)—the team powering enterprise‑wide insights across FP&A, ALM, ERM, Treasury, and Capital Management. You’ll take ownership of the projection models leaders rely on, shaping financial outcomes across GAAP, Statutory, and economic bases. Your work will influence how risk is evaluated, capital is deployed, and strategy is set.

This is a high‑visibility, high‑impact role for an actuary ready to make a real mark at enterprise scale.

The team operates as a high‑impact Modeling Center of Excellence, bringing together advanced modeling expertise, strong business partnership, and technical innovation. The team collaborates closely across finance, actuarial, and enterprise stakeholders to translate complex challenges into scalable, data‑driven solutions. Known for blending deep quantitative rigor with practical application, the group sets consistent modeling standards while continuously evolving methodologies. Team members are empowered to influence enterprise decisions through thoughtful analysis and forward‑looking insights.

This environment is ideal for professionals who thrive at the intersection of technical excellence, collaboration, and strategic impact.

As the Actuary for Financial Projection Modeling, you will play a critical role on a highly visible and innovative team.
