Unique opportunity with Aon’s Reinsurance team to support the comprehensive approach to risk assessment, risk transfer and risk mitigation

Effective catastrophe management is an essential component of an insurer’s risk management program.

Open to applicants Australia wide, Aon offers flexible working

Aon is in the business of better decisions

At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world.

As an organization, we are united through trust as one inclusive, diverse team, and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.

What the day will look like

Using significant expertise of all major catastrophe models, our analysts overcome data and model limitations to provide clients with a comprehensive view of their portfolio. The team is in regular dialogue with all major modelling firms and provides clients with detailed explanations for model changes and interpreting their potential effect on results.

Key responsibilities include -

Collecting, manipulating and interrogating client exposure and claim data in MS Excel or SQL to support analyses;

Utilising catastrophe modelling software to determine clients’ exposure to catastrophe hazards such as earthquake, cyclone and bushfire;

Analysing clients’ historical data to assess their exposure to future large non-catastrophe losses;

Using reinsurance optimisation techniques to determine reinsurance strategies that maximise the likelihood that clients can meet their financial goals;

Effectively communicating results to internal and external stakeholders using written reports and/or presentations;

Developing effective working relationships with internal and external clients; and

Actively contributing to research and development ideas.

How this opportunity is different

Our catastrophe management team assesses client catastrophe exposure, models loss estimates and, alongside our actuaries and brokers, designs reinsurance programs to efficiently manage net risks. In addition, we leverage that knowledge into improvements in catastrophe reinsurance cost recovery and overall portfolio optimization.

Skills and experience that will lead to success

The ability to work well within a team, a curious mindset and strong problem solving and analytical skills

Tertiary qualifications in relevant field of study – actuarial studies, mathematics or statistics

Knowledge of catastrophe modelling software (preferred)

Advanced Excel skills and strong a working knowledge of MS Word, SQL and PowerPoint

Excellent communication skills (both oral and written)

Tableau or PowerBI experience

Insurance or reinsurance experience

Experience with VBA, Python, R an advantage but not essential

Excellent organisation skills and ability to work under pressure

Self-discipline to manage own workflow and deadlines

How we support our colleagues

In addition to our comprehensive benefits package, we encourage a diverse workforce. Plus, our agile, inclusive environment allows you to manage your wellbeing and work/life balance, ensuring you can be your best self at Aon. Furthermore, all colleagues enjoy two “Global Wellbeing Days” each year, encouraging you to take time to focus on yourself. We offer a variety of working style solutions, but we also recognise that flexibility goes beyond just the place of work... and we are all for it. We call this Smart Working!

Our continuous learning culture inspires and equips you to learn, share and grow, helping you achieve your fullest potential. As a result, at Aon, you are more connected, more relevant, and more valued.

Aon values an innovative, diverse workplace where all colleagues feel empowered to be their authentic selves. Aon is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
