Job description

Exclusive Role: Investment Associate (Actuary), up to £120,000 + bonus + benefits

We are exclusively working with an insurance-focused specialty finance start-up business making investments in and lending to insurance businesses globally.

As part of their growth, they are now looking for a number of self-motivated and ambitious investment / finance professionals to join the business who are eager to take on individual responsibility and want to be part of a dynamic and international organisation. This is an exciting and rare opportunity.

We are looking for candidates who are both intellectual and analytical as well as personable and engaging. Experience of a transactional nature in the insurance sector is advantageous but an interest in understanding the holistic insurance value chain is crucial. We're looking for motivated individuals - self-starters who are curious and eager to learn. The ability to enjoy working individually as well as a part of a team will be vital.

Candidates must be financially literate and be willing to read financial documents such as SFCRs, financial statements and management summaries. A key skill will be digesting this information and being able to concisely communicate both facts and opinions using written and verbal mediums.

Significant amounts of time will be spent writing reports so excellent written communication is a key strength we will be looking for - candidates should enjoy writing and be able to explain actuarial concepts in a simple way to technical and non-technical audiences.

You will ideally be a qualified actuary but accountants, CFA charterholders and other finance professionals with relevant experience and a passion for investment management will also be considered. It would be advantageous to have knowledge of insurance balance sheets as well as some regulatory knowledge of at least one of: UK, US, Europe, Australia, Canada, Bermuda.

Please send through your CV to be considered. Happy to arrange a call to discuss further.
