Seeking a Nearly or Newly Qualified Actuary to Lead the Development of Actuarial Analytics.

The Role

Willis Re is investing in the future of analytics, building the next generation of tools and models that support our brokers and clients across the global treaty reinsurance market.

We are looking for a technically minded actuary who enjoys solving problems through coding, automation and data-driven insights.

This is an opportunity to help shape Willis Re's analytical capability, working directly with brokers and stakeholders to build tools that create real business impact.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build predictive models, automated reporting solutions and analytical frameworks to support brokers and clients.
  • Apply statistical and machine learning techniques where appropriate, ensuring robust validation and governance.
  • Work closely with brokers and analytics colleagues to identify opportunities for new tools and process improvements.
  • Leverage AI and automation to enhance analytical workflows and drive efficiency.
  • Maintain high standards of testing, documentation, version control and model governance.
  • Support peer review activities and contribute to the development of junior colleagues.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
