(Re)insurance Senior Pricing Analyst | £50,000-£75,000 (DoE/Exams) + High Bonus
If you're a part-qualified actuary (2-3 years) with pricing experience and enjoy combining technical modelling with commercial decision-making, this is an opportunity to work across both insurance and reinsurance pricing within the Lloyd's market.
Valayo are working with a global specialty (re)insurer looking to hire a Senior Pricing Analyst into their London team.
This role offers exposure to both direct insurance and reinsurance pricing, with work split broadly 50/50 between the two. You will be working across all classes they write, but on the RI side, the portfolio includes Credit & Political Risk, Property CAT, providing a broad range of work throughout the year and exposure to different underwriting challenges.
The role sits in a highly technical actuarial team that works closely with underwriters. Alongside day-to-day pricing work, you'll be involved in analytical projects, model development and wider initiatives focused on improving how pricing is delivered across the business.
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.

The actuarial team has built a strong reputation within the business and works closely with underwriting, finance and claims teams. The environment is collaborative, technically strong and highly commercial, with actuaries playing an active role in decision-making across the business.
They're particularly interested in candidates who can combine technical pricing experience with strong communication skills and who are comfortable explaining analytical concepts to non-technical audiences.
Previous London Market/Commercial Lines pricing experience is preferred, but the team is more focused on finding someone with strong analytical ability, programming skills and a real interest in learning.
