Akur8 is a fast-growing InsurTech scale-up on a mission to redefine insurance pricing and reserving through transparent,
high-performance modeling technology.
With the launch of Akur8 Life, we are bringing that same mission to the Life Insurance market, delivering purpose-built solutions
for the unique complexity of life, health, and protection risk.
Our SaaS platform uses transparent machine learning and predictive analytics to improve the speed, accuracy, and reliability of
actuarial pricing and reserving, addressing the long-term liability horizons, mortality and morbidity modelling challenges, and
evolving regulatory expectations that define the Life Insurance landscape.
Built by experienced actuarial, product, and R&D teams, Akur8's proprietary algorithms enable insurers to generate insights up to
10x faster than traditional methods, while maintaining full explainability and the regulatory confidence that frameworks such as
Solvency II and IFRS 17 demand.
As our platform expands into Life Insurance, we provide next-generation reserving and pricing capabilities, supporting an
end-to-end approach to risk assessment across the full product lifecycle, from term and whole life to annuities and health covers.
With 40+ nationalities across 8 global offices, including our headquarters in Paris, we serve 320+ insurance clients on 4
continents, partnering with insurers in mature and highly regulated markets.
We are proud to be an equal opportunities employer, committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and we evaluate all candidates
fairly based on skills, experience, and professional merit.
Akur8 is seeking a highly motivated, analytical and collaborative Senior Life Actuary who - via their technical and
entrepreneurial skills, will spearhead the expansion of Akur8’s Life & Annuity presence in the UK and Europe.
Responsible for designing, building, and maintaining SLOPE actuarial models and reports tailored to the European market, you will
run platform demos to prospects, as well as providing ongoing training & support to clients.
This role is a great fit for actuaries that are passionate about technology and want to be at the forefront of modernizing the
