  • Lead actuarial interpretation of regulatory developments including VM-22 and NAIC changes.
  • Partner with Appointed Actuary and Valuation teams to ensure compliance and transparent control structures.
  • Support the EBS valuation framework, coordinating with Bermuda stakeholders.

Capital & Asset-Liability Alignment

  • Partner with Capital Solutions and Investments to evaluate interactions between assets, liabilities, and capital frameworks.
  • Lead or contribute to ALM analytics and sensitivity testing for interest rate, credit, and reinvestment risk.
  • Provide actuarial insight into capital optimization, reinsurance strategy, and asset-liability efficiency.
  • Align valuation outputs with business planning and capital cycles.

Cross-Functional Influence & Communication

  • Bridge actuarial, finance, and investment functions to integrate insights into enterprise decisions.
  • Prepare and present materials for executive committees, Boards, and regulators.
  • Build consensus on key assumptions, methodologies, and capital approaches.

Leadership & Talent Development

  • Mentor actuarial and analytical staff, building enterprise and cross-functional capabilities.
  • Promote collaboration across U.S. and Bermuda teams.
  • Encourage a culture of strategic insight, accountability, and continuous improvement.


Qualifications and Experience:

  • Strong communication skills with experience engaging senior executives.

  • Demonstrated leadership and collaboration skills.
