Job description

Senior Consulting Actuary – Non-Traditional Applied Risk, Strategy & Impact

A highly regarded consulting practice is seeking a qualified actuary to join its expanding advisory team, working on complex, high-impact problems that sit well outside traditional俊 insurance or pensions roles.

This opportunity is designed for actuaries who enjoy applied problem-solving, strategic thinking, and influencing senior decision‑makers — rather than operating within narrow product lines or regulatory frameworks.

The Work

The role involves advising on a wide range of bespoke, analytical and strategic engagements, including:

• Long‑term risk and uncertainty modelling
• Assurance and challenge of complex financial and economic analysis
• Strategic funding and investment decisions
• Compensation, remediation and contingent liability frameworks
• Infrastructure, energy and environmental risk
• High‑stakes decision‑making under uncertainty

Projects are varied, intellectually demanding, and require clear communication of complex concepts to non‑technical audiences.

Your Role

• Lead and contribute to consulting engagements from scoping through to delivery
• Review, challenge and improve models, assumptions and methodologies
• Translate complex analysis into clear, evidence‑based advice
• Work closely with senior stakeholders on sensitive and high‑profile issues
• Manage multiple concurrent projects in a consulting environment

This is a role where judgment, curiosity and communication are just as important as technical actuarial expertise.
