We work with diverse, prestigious clients across a range of sectors and geographies, giving you the opportunity to constantly update and grow your skills for lifelong professional development. Forvis Mazars faces a once-in-a-generation growth opportunity within the UK and is looking for candidates to make their mark in leading and adding value to a growing global business.
About The Team
Our Actuarial team uses expertise in financial, risk, and capital modelling to help clients manage the complexities that are inherent in business. We use a blend of technical and commercial expertise to provide insight, assurance and enable effective decision-making by business leaders. You will serve regional, national, and international companies of all sizes and structures combining your skills with the right actuarial and non-actuarial team members for every engagement.
About The Role
Working in the life insurance area, this role will be split between external audit during the financial reporting season and a wide range of actuarial consultancy work for the balance of the year. Supporting the Actuarial Partners, this is an exciting opportunity to be involved in a wide variety of projects and roles, and to add value to a growing UK business.
In particular, we are looking for someone with life and health insurance experience and to help and support with the development of robust and accurate methodologies for aspects of Solvency II valuation and reporting. This experience could have been gained either from working in a life insurance company or with a consulting firm.
You will be given early responsibility and will be involved in high-profile global projects. Your time would usually be split between working in the office, attending client meetings and relationship development.
What are we looking for?
Forvis Mazars is a leading professional services network. The network operates under a single brand worldwide, with just two members: Forvis Mazars LLP in the United States and Forvis Mazars Group SC, an internationally integrated partnership operating in over 100 countries and territories.

Together, our strategic vision strives to move our clients, people, industry and communities forward. Through our reach and areas of expertise, we help organisations respond to emerging sustainability issues in the global marketplace including human rights, climate change, environmental impacts and culture.
We are one diverse, multicultural, multi-generational team with a huge sense of connection and belonging. This is a place where you can take ownership of your career, get involved, believe in yourself and put your ideas into action.
At Forvis Mazars, we empower our people and celebrate individuality. We thrive on teamwork and are agile.
