• Actuarial experience within life insurance, annuities, or related insurance products
• Meaningful and recent Variable Annuity experience required
• Strong understanding of valuation, reserves, GAAP, STAT, and actuarial financial reporting
• Experience with VA reporting, valuation, modeling, or pricing will be considered
• Prior people management or team leadership experience
• Strong Excel skills; database experience is helpful
• Python, MG-Triton / Triton, or other actuarial systems experience is a plus, but not required
• Strong communication skills and ability to partner across actuarial, finance, accounting, and modeling teams

Compensation

• Base salary with some flexibility for the right candidate
• Equity component expected at this level
• Total package up to approximately $240K

Why this opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to step into a visible actuarial leadership role with ownership of complex Variable Anuity blocks, exposure across multiple senior stakeholder groups, and long-term mobility across a broad insurance platform.

The right person will bring enough technical depth to understand the VA reserve and reporting mechanics, while also being able to lead a team, communicate clearly, and operate as a central partner across actuarial, finance, accounting, and modeling.
