Why This Role?

This is a meaningful leadership role within the enterprise P&C actuarial reserving organization, designed for a senior actuarial manager who wants to sit close to complex reserve analysis, business decision-making, and the continued modernization of reserving practices.

As a Senior Actuarial Manager, you will not only execute core reserving responsibilities, you will help strengthen the craft of reserving through improved methodology, data quality, documentation, tool utilization, and team development. This is a role for someone who can operate independently on complex analyses, guide analysts through high-quality execution, and contribute to the ongoing evolution of a modern reserving function.

• Lead complex reserving analyses. Own reserving analyses for Homeowners, catastrophe and runoff exposures, using accepted actuarial and statistical standards, with a focus on high-quality analysis, sound judgment, and clear business implications.

• Strengthen reserve decision support. Partner with senior reserving leaders and business stakeholders to develop and execute reserving strategies that support high-complexity reserve analyses and informed decision-making.

• Ensure data quality and analytical rigor. Select, review, and challenge the data, assumptions, methods, and tools used in highly complex actuarial analyses, ensuring outputs are reliable, well-supported, and fit for purpose.

• Translate technical work into clear insights. Review, evaluate, and communicate actuarial results, modeling techniques, and reserve indications in a way that is understandable, actionable, and relevant for leadership and external groups.

• Guide work across projects and priorities. Plan, manage, and contribute to high-complexity projects that may span multiple disciplines, balancing technical quality, timelines, stakeholder needs, and execution discipline.

• Develop analysts and build team capability. Lead a team by setting expectations, coaching technical development, reviewing work, and providing input on talent management, development, and team effectiveness.

• Advance the reserving craft. Contribute technical and thought leadership through improvements to reserving methods, processes, tools, documentation, and analytical approaches, often serving as a subject-matter expert within the team.

• Apply business and regulatory context. Use knowledge of insurance products, market dynamics, claims trends, and the regulatory environment to inform reserving conclusions and influence appropriate business decisions.

Impact & Exposure

Your work will support reserve estimates and explanations used by senior reserving leadership and key business partners, and your ability to communicate clearly will help shape how complex reserve movements, methods, and assumptions are understood.
