Lead Risk Analyst- CAT Modelling

Responsibilities:

• Lead the account or portfolio modelling practice by guiding analysts technically and being hands-on whenever required.
• Implement best practices in modelling operations to ensure SLA commitments to clients are met on volume, quality and timelines.
• Transform raw exposure data (SoV, Slip) by compiling, cleansing, coding and enhancing using SQL/Excel or 3rd party tools to be able to import and analyse in the modelling software.
• Analyse P&C insurance exposures using the catastrophe risk modelling software RiskLink, Risk Modeler, Touchstone, etc.
• Generate reports using internal tools for data quality, exposure, loss and impact summaries, and creating maps using SpatiaKey, ArcGIS, etc.
• Interpret, explain and communicate modelled loss estimates and loss drivers to the stakeholders with an insightful commentary to make informed decisions in underwriting and exposure management.
• Roll-up bound accounts periodically and model the portfolios for accumulation, reserve and risk management.
• Stay updated with the changes in models and conduct studies to estimate their impact on modelled client losses.
• Conduct model sensitivity and validation tests to check its 'fit for purpose'. Sensitivity is to understand the change in model output with change in input parameters. Validation is to verify the reliability of modelled losses with regards to a specific client exposure.
