Actuary
We're working with a fast‑growing life insurance company that's gaining serious momentum in the market. They're a smaller, agile organization, which means you won't be just another person on a huge team - you'll be joining a close, collaborative group where your impact is truly felt.
They're also fully remote, giving you the flexibility and comfort that help people do their best work.
They're looking for a Lead Actuary to serve as the primary actuarial voice in the company and help drive major strategic decisions. The two key requirements are strong annuity experience and deep expertise with GGY AXIS.
