Deputy Chief Actuary
Chubb Life has been around for a century. We're done being quiet about it - we're pushing to be New Zealand's number one life insurer, and backing that with real money into automation, integrating AI and modern actuarial systems.
We need a Deputy Chief Actuary to help make it happen. You'll sit right alongside our Chief Actuary second-in-command of the Actuarial function and step into the Alternate Appointed Actuary role, with the statutory authority that comes with it. Solvency, capital, reinsurance, models, actuarial insights and assumptions - your call, alongside the Chief Actuary.
- Get real Board and Exec level exposure - presenting actuarial insight directly to senior leadership and the Board, and stepping in for the Chief Actuary during absences with full decision-making authority.
- Help set the direction, not just follow it, shaping the actuarial strategy and transformation agenda alongside Chubb's wider growth push.
- Lead capital and solvency management including ALM and insights to the business driving capital requirements.
- Lead the Reinsurance strategy and management for Chubb Life.
- Lead experience investigations, actuarial insights and assumption setting with a commercial lens of the future.
- Run the technical engine room - overseeing model governance, development and deployment (Prophet front and centre) working closely with our Global team.
- Sign off with confidence – reviewing assumptions, pricing and IFRS/GAAP reporting and solvency in support of the Chief Actuary, with the controls and rigour to back it.
