Our Areas of Expertise
Life insurance
Life insurance is one of the traditional and most prominent actuarial practice areas.
We are proud to offer actuaries, of all levels, a great selection of life insurance opportunities throughout the UK and overseas, on a permanent, fixed term (FTC) and contract (interim) basis.
Non-life insurance
The non-life (general) insurance industry provides actuaries with a unique opportunity to work in a range of specialities and disciplines.
Actuaries working in this sector tend to provide advice in three main areas: pricing; reserving; and capital modelling. In addition, actuaries are becoming increasingly involved in catastrophe modelling and wider enterprise risk management (ERM).
Pensions
Life as a pensions actuary has changed over the years and there are now multiple career avenues for you to consider as a pensions actuary.
Star Actuarial has extensive experience in recruiting for actuarial pensions roles. Our recruitment skills as an organisation are tailored to this niche market, 5 of our Consultants have worked in pensions actuarial roles!
Investment
Whether you are a part-qualified actuary, fully qualified actuary (FIA) or chartered financial analyst (CFA) we have a variety of jobs available for your next career move.
Star Actuarial recruits for a range of roles in pensions investment, investment insurance and investment risk.
Healthcare
Healthcare is the smallest and most niche actuarial sector. Specialists in this area work within non-life or life insurance companies and also within specialist healthcare providers.
We have a good understanding of this market and a strong network of candidate and client contacts.
Wider Fields
"Actuaries are finding roles in industries where actuaries have never been. As companies seek greater control over risk, they are bringing actuarial work in-house." IFoA
We concur! Big data, data science and analytics roles see a demand for an actuarial skill set. We have even been asked for actuarial skills from a betting company!
