• Help develop validation frameworks, methodologies, and supporting toolkits.
• Ensure validation processes and documentation meet all relevant regulatory requirements.
• Act as a primary liaison for independent validation teams.
• Provide robust challenge to modelling assumptions, methodologies, and outputs, with clear recommendations for improvement.
• Prepare clear, concise validation reports for senior management, boards, and regulatory stakeholders.
• Work collaboratively with the wider capital team to support ongoing model improvement initiatives.
• Support the production of capital outputs for Solvency UK, Lloyd’s requirements, and internal risk management reporting, including both regular and ad hoc internal model uses.
• Develop a strong understanding of the organisation’s risk profile and capital drivers.
• Maintain up-to-date awareness of regulatory developments and industry best practice in capital modelling and validation.

Skills & Experience

• Qualified actuary (FIA or equivalent) with a strong background in modelling and/or validation.
• Proven experience in capital modelling, validation, risk modelling, or related actuarial fields, ideally within the Lloyd’s market.
• Strong technical skills, ideally including experience with tools such as ReMetrica.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving capabilities with strong attention to detail and a solutions-focused mindset.
• Effective communication skills, able to translate complex modelling concepts into meaningful insights for non-technical stakeholders.
