Job summary:

We're looking for a sharp, curious Actuarial Pricing Analyst to join our friendly and growing team at NHBC. You’ll support pricing decisions that shape the future of the business, working closely with experienced actuaries and analysts. This role offers a rare blend of technical modelling, business insight, and stakeholder exposure, ideal for someone who wants to make an impact across pricing, profitability, and risk monitoring, not just crunch numbers.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Supporting the delivery of accurate and robust technical prices
  • Contributing to commercial pricing recommendations and profitability analysis
  • Enhancing and developing pricing models and tools
  • Monitoring exposure trends and providing business insights
  • Working with the wider team to deliver annual / quarterly BAU analyses

  • Genuine interest in actuarial work and how data-driven insights can support financial risk modelling, pricing, and forecasting
  • Solid analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret complex data sets and communicate insights clearly
  • Relevant project, internship, academic or data science challenge (e.g. Kaggle, data hackathons) experience involving data modelling, machine learning, or statistical analysis
  • A degree in data science or in a maths discipline with significant data science focus, or a related field (2.1 or above).  An actuarial background is not essential, but a strong interest in quantitative problem solving is key.
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a collaborative team, with good communication and interpersonal skills
  • A proactive mindset and eagerness to learn on the job

What we offer

Our benefits package includes:

  • 27 days annual leave + bank holidays
  • Optional actuarial study support
  • holiday purchase scheme
  • enhanced pension scheme (up to 10.5%)
  • life assurance
  • subsidised private medical insurance
  • employee discounts platform
