    Actuarial – Non-Life Insurance

    This is an opportunity to become part of our success story. We have a strong reputation in the market for bringing our clients' bespoke offerings to solve their problems.

    We are more than just a conventional actuarial consultancy. As well as delivering for our clients in the traditional actuarial areas, such as reserving, pricing and capital modelling, we operate as part of the wider EY Consulting business. This gives our team the opportunity to work on wider projects including underwriting and finance transformation, implementation of technology, ESG, strategy, risk management, analytics and capital optimisation.

    A fast-changing world can create lots of opportunity for non-life insurance businesses, but it also creates new risks. It’s our job to help clients identify and manage these risks by asking the right questions, setting priorities and creating action plans for long-term success.

    We’re also proud to have won the award for The Times ‘Graduate Employer of Choice’ in 2021 for our Actuarial work.

    Technology in Actuarial

    Technology is at the forefront of the way we work. Our proprietary software enhances our ability to deliver market-leading insight and we utilise this to assist our clients in modernising their actuarial capabilities. You will be immersed in this technology from day one and will develop the skills to help our clients improve the way they operate in the market.

    What will you be doing?

    • Analysing data to identify trends and insights, communicating with clients, writing reports and presenting your work
    • Working with UK and global insurance and (re)insurance companies on reserve reviews, transactions, portfolio transfers, actuarial modelling and more
    • Using the latest techology, modelling and analysis to understand clients' businesses
    • Working with clients to transform their business, using the latest technology to allow clients to better leverage their actuarial teams for insightful analysis

    • Are you eligible to apply?

      If you’re in your penultimate year at university, or if you’re already in your final year but will be doing a one-year Master’s degree, or taking a gap year, this internship is for you. We operate an open access policy, meaning we don’t screen out applications on your academic performance alone. You will however, need to be working towards an honours degree in a numbers-based subject like Maths, Statistics, Actuarial Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, Economics, Computer Science or Technology, have a minimum of grade 4/C GCSE (or equivalent) in English Language and Maths and three A-levels (with an A in A-Level Maths)/Five Highers (or equivalent) to be eligible to apply.

      We welcome applications from all academic backgrounds and are looking for individuals who will succeed at EY in the desired role and future qualifications, therefore throughout our recruitment process your academic performance will be considered against your online assessment scores to determine your suitability for an EY role. We are also proud to partner with RARE recruitment, so that your application can be processed in the context of your socio-economic background. This allows us to give you the maximum credit for your achievements, assessing whether you have overachieved in light of your personal circumstances.
