  • Assisting the Strategy & Actuarial team with technical and analytical tasks such as trend and sensitivity analyses (e.g., CV discount rates, inflation trends); benefit provision utilization analyses; actuarial studies (e.g., experience study, contribution rate review); and actuarial regulatory disclosures.
  • Supporting the development and testing of systems (especially actuarial modules) and analytical tools to ensure top-tier delivery of in-house actuarial services.
  • Applying knowledge of the OMERS pension plan texts and relevant administration practices to identify, triage, or resolve issues.
  • Assisting with the review of accuracy and completeness of publications, communication materials, and financial statements.
  • Keeping abreast of regulatory/policy changes related to the OMERS pension plans, new OMERS initiatives and products, as well as trends in the actuarial profession and pension industry to ensure OMERS remains informed, up-to-date, and compliant.
  • Ensuring adherence to privacy and internal records management policies and guidelines.

QUALIFICATIONS:

  • University degree (preferably in actuarial science, statistics, or mathematics).
  • Demonstrated progress towards attaining Associateship/Fellowship of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries is strongly preferred.
  • Two to five years of experience in the pension or financial industry.
  • Knowledge of Canadian pension legislation.
  • Strong analytical abilities with a mathematical aptitude and a solid understanding of actuarial principles, statistical concepts, and interest theory.
  • A client-service mindset, team spirit, and strong communication and presentation skills. Ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships.
  • Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage workload effectively, delivering accurate work with attention to detail in a timely manner.
  • A proactive approach to identifying and implementing process enhancements or automating tasks to ensure efficient, value-added activities.
  • A strong aptitude for technology, with proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint, as well as a working knowledge of Word, data management tools (e.g., Power Pivot, Power Query), data visualization tools (e.g., Power BI), programming languages (VBA, Python, R), and actuarial valuation software (e.g., ProVal) is strongly preferred.

As one of Canada's largest defined benefit pension plans, our people-first culture thrives when our workforce reflects the communities we serve.
