• Work as part of a broader multidisciplinary team to lay out actuarial business requirements on data, processes, and reports, advocating for actuarial and collaborating with other finance and IT functions to move our transformation forward.

• Work with various stakeholders within the actuarial, finance, and risk communities to identify and derive future state capabilities, roadmap their development, and execute on their implementation.

• Partner with other transformation leaders to execute the enterprise data and reporting strategy, and to support the end-to-end workflows and processes from an actuarial lens.

• Act as a trusted partner and change management agent for testing and adoption of new processes, dashboards, and capabilities.

The experience you bring:

• Knowledge of the actuarial valuation and reporting process.

• Knowledge of various reporting frameworks including regulatory and management reporting.

• Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment with high degrees of ambiguity.
