How you'll help move us forward:
  • Prepare and communicate driver analysis of spread margins comparing to prior quarter, plan and other best estimate projections.
  • Collaborate across Investments, Valuation, Pricing and Inforce Management in the results and expectations. Use the information to create a feedback loop to refresh best estimate projections of spread income.
  • Understand and communicate financial impacts of capital market changes across LDTI GAAP, statutory, and economic frameworks, ensuring alignment with assumed sensitivities.
  • Assist in building annual plan projections for CMD with comparison and key story generation for changes to plan results year over year.


The experience you bring:
  • Bachelor's degree or more with FSA and 6+ years of experience in relevant insurance work.
  • Working knowledge of life and/or annuity products in areas such as Valuation, Modeling or Pricing.

What makes you stand out:
  • Proficient understanding of ALM or hedging strategies for life / annuity products.
  • Experience building or explaining life/annuity reserve roll forwards.
  • Demonstrated problem-solving skills while navigating through ambiguity.
