Recruiter:

Network Recruitment

Job Ref:

NFP016427/CL

Date posted:

Wednesday, December 3, 2025

Location:

Johannesburg, South Africa

SUMMARY:
If you get excited about models behaving, data reconciling, and pricing changes making sense (bless your heart), then this one’s for you. This is a chance to step into a role where your actuarial brain isn’t just “nice to have” - it’s the engine. This opportunity is with a well-established financial services group that’s big on tech, innovation, and making insurance simpler and smarter. They’re known for pushing boundaries instead of polishing the old-school ways, and they want someone who thrives on that kind of energy.

POSITION INFO:
You’ll work closely with Senior Analysts and Managers, build and improve actuarial models, and play a key part in shaping pricing, product decisions, and business insights. If you want a space where Actuaries aren't tucked away doing mysterious number magic, this team will actually let you drive change.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop, maintain, and implement actuarial models that are accurate, documented, and genuinely useful to the business.
Support model deployment, system changes, testing, and ongoing model monitoring across various product lines.
Analyze business data, run impact and sensitivity analyses, and translate results into simple, meaningful insights for stakeholders.
Work closely with product, pricing, sales, and marketing teams on new developments, performance tracking, and solving real business problems.

Job Experience and Skills Required:

Bachelor’s Degree in Actuarial Science or a related field.
Strong progress toward an actuarial qualification.
Minimum 1 year actuarial experience in a short-term insurance environment.
Experience with actuarial modelling, data analysis, and reporting.
Strong mathematical and statistical foundation.
Proficiency in actuarial and statistical software, plus advanced Microsoft Office.
Solid understanding of data mining, machine learning concepts, and data validation.
Must meet (or be working toward) regulatory “fit and proper” requirements.
