Are you a nearly or newly qualified actuary who enjoys variety, problem solving, and cross-functional collaboration?

Join us as a Longevity Inforce Management Actuary and contribute to the effective management of Swiss Re’s global longevity reinsurance portfolio, a complex and growing line of business that plays a strategically important role in the company’s success.

This role offers the opportunity to apply your actuarial judgment across a wide range of tasks — from validating complex outputs and reviewing client data, to improving operational processes and working directly with clients to resolve issues. It’s ideal for someone who enjoys applying their technical expertise in a dynamic and highly collaborative environment.

Key responsibilities include:

• Performing and reviewing technical tasks, including experience analysis, validating client data, claims, premium, and settlement calculations
• Providing oversight and support to more junior team members, ensuring consistent quality and adherence to process
• Helping assess operational implications of new treaties before signing, and supporting business onboarding activities across functions
• Contributing to process improvements, including documentation and IT platform enhancements, to boost efficiency and support future growth
• Supporting interactions with clients, particularly around resolving queries, managing disputes, and fulfilling contractual obligations
