Phoenix Group

 

 

"... Life at Phoenix in Wythall offers a tremendous mixture of career opportunities, professional support and social activities "

David Kirkwood
Senior Actuarial Analyst

A Top 10 UK Life Company

With over 6 million policyholders and assets under management of around £68.5 billion*, the Phoenix Group is now clearly established as the UK's leading closed fund specialist and well positioned to take advantage of further consolidation in this rapidly developing sector.

As a business, we are continually transforming ourselves, to such an extent that change and transition is part and parcel of everyday life. In the last 12 months alone, we have begun the process of transferring all operations to one single site and moved from a venture capitalist ownership model to listed shareholder status.

This in itself presents unique and exciting challenges for the actuarial team - in terms of harmonising and standardising business processes and procedures across the group, as well as increased reporting and regulatory requirements, plus the need for a more robust and rigorous risk management framework.

But that's only half the story! Already we're actively pursuing a UK listing and with the impending arrival of Solvency II in 2012, rest assured there will be lots more changes and challenges to come.
