Valayo is working with a leading London Market insurer on an opportunity within their Capital Modelling team.
One of the biggest attractions of this role is the opportunity to move beyond purely technical capital modelling and gain much broader exposure to how capital is actually used across the business.
Alongside the core modelling work, you'll work closely with senior stakeholders across the business, helping them understand complex risks, bringing together different sources of information and using the output from the model to support wider commercial and strategic decision-making.
The role offers a really interesting balance between technical modelling and business partnering. They're looking for someone who enjoys getting into the detail of complex problems, but equally wants to understand the commercial context behind the numbers and communicate their findings to people with different levels of technical expertise.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
There's also significant variety in the work. You'll gain exposure to areas including portfolio analysis, reinsurance, risk appetite, capital allocation, stress and scenario testing, and wider strategic projects, rather than being focused purely on the production and maintenance of the capital model.
One of the biggest advantages is the level of ownership you'll be able to develop over time. You'll be given the opportunity to take responsibility for increasingly complex areas of work, build relationships with senior stakeholders, and become someone the wider business can rely on to translate technical analysis into useful commercial insight.
You'll also play an important role in the ongoing development of the capital modelling framework, helping ensure it continues to reflect changes in the business, regulatory requirements, and wider market developments. There will also be opportunities to manage projects and support the development of other members of the team.
