Pricing Actuary

Authentic•Dayton, OH

About The Position

Authentic helps insurance brokers create better insurance products for their clients. We provide the technology platform and behind-the-scenes support that lets brokers build custom insurance solutions for specific industries or customer groups. Think of us as the operating system that powers these specialized insurance offerings. For brokers, this means they can offer unique products their competitors don't have, earn more money, and spend less time on paperwork and administrative tasks. We handle the complex (technology, compliance, and partnerships with highly-rated insurance carriers), so they can focus on serving their customers and growing their business. This is the first dedicated actuarial hire at Authentic. You’ll report to our COO, a credentialed actuary who is currently covering actuarial leadership directly. You’ll own the analytical work that our carrier partners, reinsurers, and internal underwriting teams depend on to write profitable business.

Requirements

ACAS, or near-ACAS with path to the credential
4+ years of property & casualty actuarial experience in both reserving and pricing; commercial lines exposure (general liability, property, workers’ compensation, auto, umbrella) strongly preferred
Comfortable with imperfect and incomplete data.
Ability to distinguish between a number that is wrong and a number that is merely immature.
Ability to present technical conclusions to non-actuarial audiences, including carrier partners, reinsurers, brokers, and executives.
