It's finding new ways to not only better people's lives, but to better the communities and environments we live. As the largest listed company on the HKSE, we’ve been proudly making a difference across Asia for over a century. And as we look to build on our legacy, we need great Actuaries who want to be part of something bigger than finance alone.

By ensuring our products are well designed and priced, analysing business performance and ensuring proper management of insurance policies in-force, you’re not just safeguarding AIA’s financial wellbeing. You’re securing a better future for the people and communities we serve - today, tomorrow and for generations to come.

Strong business acumen and ability to deal with ambiguity
Proven ability to apply a mixture of analysis, experience and judgement to solve complex business problems
Confidence to think and work independently and challenge assumptions, processes and results
Detailed knowledge and understanding of theory and practice across at least one aspect of actuarial work (e.g. experience investigations, pricing, valuations, solvency and capital management, reinsurance, predictive modelling etc.)
Strong technical skills including software skills (including AIA systems, SQL, MS Office package, Prophet Suite, SAS, Python and R) and analytical skills
Excellent communication and presentation skills with the ability to engage with non-actuarial stakeholders and business partners
A tertiary qualification with quantitative background (e.g., mathematics, statistics or engineering)
