Job Description:

Providing for loved ones, planning rewarding retirements, saving enough for whatever lies ahead – our policyholders count on us to be there when it matters most. It’s a big ask, but it’s one that we have the power to deliver when we work together. We collaborate and innovate – pushing one another to transform not just Pacific Life, but the entire industry for the better. Why? Because it’s the right thing to do. Pacific Life is more than a job, it’s a career with purpose. It’s a career where you have the support, balance, and resources to make a positive impact on the future – including your own.

We’re seeking a Senior Actuary (FSA) to join our Consumer Markets Division (CMD) FP&A team, where you’ll play a strategic role in shaping the future of life insurance and annuity solutions. This is an opportunity to leverage your actuarial expertise in forecasting, analytics, and financial strategy while collaborating with cross-functional teams in hedging, valuation, pricing, and investments.

This role is on-site 4 days per week and work from home 1 day per week in Newport Beach, CA, Omaha, NE, or Charlotte, NC. If you are not currently located near one of our offices, we offer comprehensive relocation assistance.

Join a team that embraces digital transformation, predictive analytics, and risk modeling innovation. Your work will influence strategic planning, capital optimization, and customer-centric product development in a rapidly evolving insurance landscape.

How you’ll help move us forward:

  • Lead advanced driver analysis across multiple product lines, comparing results to prior quarter, plan, and best-estimate projections.
  • Develop predictive models and reporting tools to analyze investment income, option costs, and reserve attributions.
  • Communicate financial impacts of capital market changes across LDTI (Long Duration Targeted Improvements) US GAAP, statutory, and economic frameworks.
  • Innovate forecasting methodologies and integrate feedback loops to improve accuracy.
  • Shape executive decisions through actionable insights and scenario modeling.

The experience you bring:

  • Education & Credentials: Bachelor’s degree or higher; FSA designation with 6+ years of relevant insurance experience.
  • Technical Expertise: Strong knowledge of life and annuity products in areas such as Valuation, Modeling, Hedging, or Pricing.
  • Analytical Skills: Ability to interpret trends, communicate findings, and assess downstream impacts.
  • Tools & Technology: Familiarity with actuarial modeling platforms, data visualization tools, and forecasting software.

What makes you stand out:

  • Deep understanding of Asset Liability Management (ALM) and hedging strategies for life/annuity products.
  • Experience with reserve roll forwards and financial attribution analysis.
  • Hands-on experience with Fixed Index Annuity (FIA), Multi-Year Guarantee (MYGA), Registered Index-Linked Annuity (RILA), or Payout Annuities.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and adaptability in ambiguous environments.
  • Exposure to data analytics, machine learning applications in actuarial science, and automation tools for forecasting.

  • Newport Beach, CA: $167,670 - 204,236
  • Omaha, NE: $144,810 - $176,990

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
