About The Position

Great West is seeking an Actuarial Analyst to join our team at our corporate headquarters in South Sioux City, Nebraska. This opportunity is ideal for recent graduates or early-career actuarial professionals who are eager to build a career in Property & Casualty insurance.

This role offers the opportunity to build a strong actuarial foundation while developing the communication, collaboration, and business acumen needed to influence real business outcomes.
