This position reports to the VP, Capital Forecasting Finance Manager and contributes directly to forecasting financial based metrics and integration of results into enterprise applications. CMFT partners closely with Actuarial Modeling, Investments, Treasury, and Finance, and delivers results to a broad range of internal and external stakeholders.

What You Will Do:
  • Execute the quarterly production of financial-based forecast outputs, including management earnings and valuation, US GAAP, and financial-based capital constraints such as leverage ratios, across a range of scenarios and sensitivities.
  • Support the development and maintenance of US GAAP-based projections, partnering with Finance on reconciliations to ensure consistency between forecast outputs and the enterprise financial reporting framework.
  • Conduct detailed attribution of forecasting model results for period-over-period movements, and reconciliations of capital-based forecasts to actual and Budget results.
  • Support the definition and documentation of business requirements and assist the Actuarial Modeling team in investigating issues, testing new functionality and validating changes prior to production deployment.
  • Perform trend analysis to validate that forecasted reporting items are consistent with, or clearly explainable relative to, actual reported results, with particular focus on US GAAP and management basis outputs.
  • Execute controls as designed to ensure the accuracy and auditability of all projection outputs and escalate issues for resolution as they arise.
  • Develop and maintain supplementary processes and analytical tools to extend the enterprise forecasting model's coverage, ensuring reporting requirements are met across entities, accounts, and business segments not directly modeled within the core architecture.
  • Contribute to automation and model architecture improvement initiatives to reduce manual processes and improve scalability across forecasting outputs.
  • Support the preparation of senior management and board-level reporting materials, including capital forecast summaries and variance commentary for management committees.

What You Will Have:
  • Undergraduate degree required with finance, accounting, actuarial science and other quantitative fields preferred.
  • 7+ years of experience in financial reporting, FP&A or a related field within the insurance/reinsurance industry.
  • CPA, CFA, or equivalent accounting designation preferred; actuarial exam progress (ASA/FSA track) also valued.
  • Working knowledge of US GAAP accounting principles and financial reporting requirements; exposure to asset accounting and liability valuations a plus.
  • Proficiency in financial modeling with a solid understanding of the financial and economic drivers of an insurance or reinsurance business.
  • Familiarity with financial systems, general ledger platforms, and FP&A toolsets; experience supporting enterprise system requirements a plus.
