Founder & Director at B & K Consulting | Life Insurance and Retirement | Ongoing pursuit of personal improvement | Perpetually excited about uncovering premium talent | Two ears one mouth
Have you considered hiring an Actuary Actuarial roles across the life insurance sector are quite challenged at the moment. There is an oversupply of Actuarial candidates and an under supply of roles. A large number of Actuaries working in large consulting businesses are keen to make the move to corporate as the amount of work and cultures within those organisations have been challenged in recent times. The move to corporate is challenged as the growth isn’t there at the moment. I have always been very impressed when meeting with Actuaries, and these meetings were defining in terms of my desire to specialise recruiting in the Actuarial space. Reasons for this include: - Actuaries are insanely intelligent. - They also happen to be very well trained by virtue of having completed many years of study to qualify. - Development of communication skills forms part of their studies/ training and they are extremely articulate. - They are hard working, value trust, and have strong ethics. With a significant number considering the next step in their career and the sector remaining challenged, I have found myself pondering where there might be an opportunity for them to pivot. Options I have considered: - Data Science and Analytics - most Actuaries have invested in ongoing education. They have developed programming skills and the Actuarial background means they are strong in analysis and providing insights. - Quantitative/ research roles - I believe they would be a great pool of talent for the Investments world to pull from due to their modelling, analytical skills, and judgement. - FinTech and emerging businesses in the SME space - Actuaries are trained to solve complex problems, they are considered, and they work hard to deliver. The skills and attributes Actuaries bring are completely transferrable. If you’re looking for individuals with a diverse range of skills to solve problems, build something, or navigate ambiguity and complexity, I’d strongly suggest considering hiring an Actuary. #actuaries #greathire #transferableskills

Managing Partner of Raretec Recruitment Ltd, a leading specialist provider of actuarial professionals in Ireland
At Raretec, we have seen the growth and demand for actuarial contractors in Ireland gain momentum in recent years. This growth mirrors the global trend in the use of contractors for most areas of professional work. So why consider hiring contractors? -It can provide a company with a flexible workforce and quick access to specialised actuarial skills when needed -With the demand for actuaries high, it can sometimes be difficult to find the right individual for a permanent role -Engaging an actuary as a contractor in the short term can be a great interim solution -While some Insurance companies are going through a period of change, a day rate contractor can be a good solution while the headcount needs are assessed -There is also a steady flow of maternity leave roles, and in more recent years career breaks and extended leave roles to be covered If you would like to discuss any actuarial contractor or permanent requirements contact carina.devlin@raretec.ie or call 01 5311400 www.raretec.ie #actuarial #contractjobs #recruitment

Whilst all experience is good experience it's a good idea to see how the business you decided to start your actuarial journey at can shape the rest of your career. ✨ A great read Charlotte (Charlie) Wright! #consultancy #insurers #actuarial
Inhouse insurer versus consultancy – which is the best route for your actuarial career? Let’s consider the variables: 👉 What stage are you in your career e.g. 1-5 years, 6-10 years, 10+ years 👉 What are your own aspirations? 👉 Does your personality suit the specific challenges and opportunities of the role? 👉 What does the specific employer offer that is different to other companies? Our Senior Consultant, Charlotte (Charlie) Wright, has produced some guidance to help your career planning. Charlie also spoke with actuarial professionals Jonathan Charalambous, (Reinsurance Pricing Analyst) and Richard Stock (Head of Property and Casualty) to learn first-hand about their experience in working both inhouse and for a consultancy. Thank you both for your insights! It’s important to keep an open mind when learning which routes might help to boost your career.

Six differences between working in consulting vs in-house 1. You’ll likely work longer hours in consulting ⏱ Hours in consulting can vary a lot by firm and also depend on the projects you’re staffed on. Typically you should expect to work more hours than a comparable job in industry. Remember that higher pay does not equal higher pay per hour, so consider how much you value the extra time 2. More hours means it may be tougher to pass exams 📝 A higher variety of work (and more of it) is likely to make passing exams more difficult. Passing exams is important to progress your career and increase your compensation, so it’s important to consider the trade off of developing your practical skills and experience vs getting the accreditation in a timely manner. 3. You may get higher pay and better upside (but there’s no guarantee) 💵 The highest earning consultants earn good money and there’s the possibility to earn more than peers working in insurance companies, particularly at the junior level. In practice, compensation is very variable and depends more on the company / role you’re working in 4. There can be a wider variety of work 💼 The work you do will be determined by the clients’ demands but is likely to have more variety than in-house roles. You may find yourself on a reserving team working for clients across a range of lines of business, or you may find yourself contributing to projects that venture outside traditional actuarial work. 5. Exposure to real work and real client problems quickly 📈 Entry level positions tend to do more “real work” in consulting. In insurance companies, there’s often several years of simpler, straightforward work such as report building and data cleansing. 6. The culture will be more focused on work 👥 Along with longer hours comes a work-hard culture in most consultancies. You will have a billable hours target and there may be busy periods where you have to work evenings and weekends. Many young actuaries start their careers in consulting and then transition into a more relaxed in-house position Ready to take the next step in your actuarial career?
