Who we are:
Apollo is a specialised independent (re)insurer, established in 2009, to deliver top-tier products and services to clients, brokers, and capital partners at Lloyd's.

- Provide pricing and analytics support to Strategic Partner Syndicates, particularly during peak renewal periods.
- Offer independent challenge and oversight to pricing teams where required.
- Support junior team members through coaching and technical guidance.
What we are looking for:
- Qualified or part-qualified actuary with substantial relevant industry experience.
- Strong knowledge of pricing methodologies across London Market classes.
- Hands-on experience developing models in hx Renew, including its data structure.
- Proficient in Python and experienced with Power BI.
- Understanding of pricing KPIs and their role in governance and oversight.
- Results-oriented, with a pragmatic and improvement-focused approach.
- Strong communicator who can engage a wide range of stakeholders.

Apollo is a growing and diverse team of empowered and passionate experts who focus on bringing innovation, data driven decision making and collaboration to every relationship and every risk. To meet the needs of a demanding global insurance market, we need a diverse workforce that truly understands the international communities we serve.
