Frequently asked questions
In New York, Senior Actuary Analysts often navigate a fast-paced environment with a hybrid schedule, blending in-office collaboration and remote work. This balance supports interaction with diverse teams in insurance hubs, differing from other regions where remote options or travel demands may vary, affecting daily workflow and networking chances.
For actuaries in New York, credentials like the FCAS are highly regarded due to the city's concentration of P&C insurers. Additionally, proficiency in data tools and near-FCAS status often enhance candidacy, reflecting the local industry's emphasis on technical expertise combined with strategic business insight.
Senior Actuary Analysts are expected to combine advanced technical skills—like Python, R, and SQL proficiency—with strong communication abilities to influence leadership decisions. Unlike entry-level roles, seniors lead analyses, support underwriting, and drive projects, requiring a broader strategic mindset and more autonomy.
Progression often leads to leadership roles such as Actuarial Manager or Chief Actuary, especially within expanding firms. Exposure to cross-departmental projects and executive communication hones skills necessary for strategic decision-making and overseeing larger teams, positioning candidates for influential industry roles.

The company offers exposure to diverse actuarial challenges, mentoring from over 200 actuaries globally, and leadership development opportunities. This environment encourages continuous learning, skill enhancement in data analytics tools, and active participation in shaping business outcomes.
Salaries typically range from $90,000 to $125,000 annually, aligned with Nautilus Insurance's competitive compensation. This range mirrors New York’s market demand for experienced actuaries skilled in P&C insurance, with bonuses and benefits enhancing overall remuneration packages.
