Actuarial Associate, Insurance Risk Modeling
Build the models that move the business
If you love being hands-on with models — architecting them, breaking them, stress-testing them, and making them better — this role is built for you. As an Actuarial Associate on GA Risk's modelling team, you'll spend your days deep in the mechanics of insurance liability models that drive real decisions: how products are priced, how billions in liabilities are valued, how risk is hedged, and how the firm manages its balance sheet. You'll own models end to end and see your work shape live pricing and risk decisions.
What makes this role different
You won't be maintaining someone else's black box. You'll be developing and enhancing liability models directly in our risk platform, running stresses across GAAP, Stat, Econ, and Bermuda lenses to understand how liabilities behave under pressure, and building the analytical tools that let Risk challenge the status quo on modeling and pricing.
You'll also sit close to the action. As new products launch and institutional transactions come onboard, you'll be the one bringing them onto the platform — which means you'll understand the full picture of both actuarial and market risk, not just a narrow slice of it.
AI is going to be central in what you do. It is already elevating everything the team does and you will be asked to explore and integrate with AI with your daily work in every way possible.

-
Develop and enhance insurance liability models in KKR Insurance Risk's liability modeling platform.
-
Perform liability stresses under multiple lenses (GAAP / Stat / Econ / Bermuda), building a deep understanding of both actuarial and market risk.
-
Onboard institutional transactions onto the Risk platform.
-
Support new product launches and keep risk models current with rate changes and new product features
