The Role

We are looking for a qualified or nearly qualified actuary from a pricing background to join this growing global team of over 100 risk consultants.

Whether that is through tailoring their risk transfer to the insurance market, detailing the optimum path to managing their non insurable risks or just detailing the risks they face in the first place.
