Sonic Summary

info
  • We are seeking an ambitious Underwriting Actuary for a leading Lloyd's start-up, offering a salary of £70,000 to £90,000.
  • The ideal candidate should have at least 3 years of experience in actuarial roles.
  • This strategic position allows actuaries to influence underwriting decisions and portfolio development in real-time.
  • The role offers a unique opportunity to transition into a commercial or underwriting role with full support from the company.
  • Candidates will work closely with top-tier underwriters and executives, enhancing their strategic skillset in a dynamic environment.

We are partnered with a leading Lloyd's start-up to recruit an ambitious Underwriting Actuary looking to make a genuine impact in one of the market's most exciting ventures.

This is not your typical actuarial role - it's a strategic and collaborative position designed for actuaries who are eager to be closer to the underwriting decision-making process, or who are considering a move into underwriting itself.

Why This Role?

  • Actuarial at the Core of Underwriting: This isn't just about pricing - it's about helping to shape underwriting strategy, partner with underwriters at the point of decision, and influence portfolio development in real-time.
  • Unique Career Path: For those looking to transition into a more commercial role - or even underwriting - this is a rare chance to do so with full support from a forward-thinking business.
  • Start-Up Agility with Lloyd's Strength: Be part of a well-backed platform with the resources of an established player and the innovation culture of a start-up.
  • High Visibility: Work alongside top-tier underwriters and executives, influencing outcomes directly and developing a broad, strategic skillset.

What You'll Do:

  • Act as a key partner to underwriters across multiple specialty lines, supporting pricing, portfolio steering, and strategic insight.
  • Develop and refine actuarial models that directly inform underwriting decisions.
  • Collaborate across functions - actuarial, underwriting, data science, and executive - to identify profitable opportunities and avoid pitfalls.
  • Contribute to the build-out of underwriting frameworks, with potential to move into a more formal underwriting role over time.
