Overview

We are seeking a driven, inventive, and thoughtful actuarial candidate to guide the adoption of complex models across multiple lines of business. This role will be a part of our Actuarial Predictive Modeling team, which is responsible for ensuring that pricing models are built with actuarial principles in mind. The role involves collaborating with underwriting management, data scientists, and other actuarial teams to build pricing models and evaluate model usage initiatives.

The ideal candidate will be able to think quickly on their feet in response to management queries. Additionally, the candidate will oversee actuarial documentation, assist with model filings, and contribute to improving team workflows.

The ideal candidate will be located in our NYC location, but other offices will still be considered.
