Job Description

The Team

The Divisional Capital Management & Reporting team sits within the Corporate Actuarial function in Divisional Business Services (DBS) at Pacific Life Re.

The team is responsible for capital management and consolidated solvency reporting across the Group, covering both the internal Economic Capital (EC) framework and the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA) regulatory basis. Our focus is on developing a deep, forward-looking understanding of capital drivers across both bases and translating this into value-adding insight that informs strategy, risk appetite, and decision-making.

The team works closely with the Global Valuation Team, the Protection and S&R Actuarial Analytics & Insights teams, Divisional Finance, Risk, and the Enterprise capital management teams. The role involves regular interaction with actuaries, accountants, systems developers, and risk professionals across multiple jurisdictions including Sydney, Singapore, Bermuda, Toronto, and Newport Beach, California.

We are seeking an exceptional actuarial leader to join the Capital Management & Reporting team as an Assistant Vice President. This is a high-impact role at the center of Pacific Life Re’s capital strategy, with significant exposure to senior leadership and enterprise-wide stakeholders across actuarial, finance, and risk.

You will play a central role in shaping how the Pacific Life Re plans, forecasts, deploys, and communicates capital, ensuring that capital frameworks are robust, well-governed, and aligned to our strategic growth objectives. You will manage a consistently busy schedule of capital management activity across the organisation, giving you the opportunity to influence a wide range of workstreams, challenges and strategic decisions from day one.

This role is well suited to someone who thrives in complex, fast-moving environments, enjoys owning end-to-end processes, and excels at converting technical analysis into clear, commercial insight for senior audiences.
