Here at Standard Life, we guide millions of people through some of life’s biggest decisions. We’re searching for a BPA Actuary who shares our commitment to putting customers first, aiming high and working together to join the BPA  Business Team

The role  

As a BPA Actuary, you will undertake a range of activity in support of Standard Life’s strategic BPA Business, including working to bring new deals quickly and efficiently into regulatory reporting processes and validating the financial impacts of transactions.   You will also support activity to meet scheme obligations such as data cleanses and buy-out activities, with the potential to support on a range of activities delivering enhanced processes and systems to support the efficient onboarding of BPAs.

What are we looking for?

• Qualified actuary with varied experience in actuarial reporting, or other life actuarial disciplines, with a strong track-record of delivery to consistent quality work within fixed and often tight deadlines.
• While this role is a Life role, Defined Benefit Pensions experience and/or direct BPA experience would be hugely valuable, and this would be a great role for someone looking to transition from Pensions to Life as their actuarial focus.
• Someone who is keen to learn quickly in a changing environment having a strong appetite for change and experience of driving continuous improvement will fit well with the role.
• Ability to influence, communicate and collaborate effectively with a variety of colleagues and senior stakeholders from different disciplines across the business.
• Building capability through developing our people is hugely important at Phoenix.  As an actuary in the BPA Team, you will play a role in the development and management of actuarial analysts and trainee actuaries in the team. 
• Knowledge of, and experience reporting on, financial reporting metrics is highly desirable.

We want to hire the whole version of you.

We are committed to ensuring that everyone feels accepted and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. If your experience looks different from what we’ve advertised and you believe that you can bring value to the role, we’d love to hear from you. 

 If you require any adjustments to the recruitment process, please let us know so we can help you to be at your best. 

We’re reviewing applications as they come in, so apply early to avoid missing out.
