<div class="mds-edited-text mds-font-body-copy-bulk"><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As one of the UK&rsquo;s largest Actuarial practices we're market leaders providing insights and solutions for all businesses that face significant and complex risks. We play an important role in supporting clients through uncertain times. Actuaries analyse how future events could affect businesses and we calculate the impact these events could have on our clients. Using our risk and analytical skills and predictive insights, we calculate the impact of changing demographics or legislation on pension schemes, the effects that changes in financial markets have on different organisations, or how likely a business is to be hit by an earthquake. You&rsquo;ll learn how to use complex financial and statistical theories to weigh up the risks and estimate the odds of what might happen. Just as important, you&rsquo;ll develop a flair for presenting your findings in simple, easy‑to‑understand language. What&rsquo;s more, early client exposure will broaden your experience.</p><br /><p><b>People &amp; Organisation Pensions</b><br />In People and Organisation (P&amp;O) we help some of the leading UK and international employers make the most of their biggest asset – their people.

Or help senior executives understand their global personal tax obligations, to implementing cutting‑edge technology in the HR space.
