Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

As a pensions actuarial consultant, I spent most days managing member queries as well as doing occasional admin related tasks. So on a day to day basis, I completed many calculations alongside writing letters and reports.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

As much as I could've been given for somebody who is not a qualified actuary. I was able to work independently and produce work that made a difference.

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
