The Opportunity
We are proud to be one of the most trusted insurance and asset management companies, with a workforce as diverse as the world itself. As the trusted insurance partner to over 700,000 customers across Ireland, we have built a brand based on trust, integrity and outstanding customer service for over 100 years. As an employer, we truly care for our employees and their individual needs and aspirations. With this in mind we have tailored our work approach to ensure you the flexibility and support needed to excel in your new role.
Are you a skilled quantitative professional with a passion for risk management? Do you thrive in dynamic environments where your expertise directly influences critical business decisions? If so, we invite you to join our Quantitative Risk team at Allianz plc as a Senior Quantitative Risk Analyst.
As a Senior Quantitative Risk Analyst within our Quantitative Risk team, you will play a pivotal role in the Risk Management Function (RMF). Your responsibilities will include:
* Playing a lead role in key risk processes such as the Financial Recovery Plan, ORSA and annual risk planning process, including analysing scenarios and accumulations to inform strategic decisions.
* Providing meaningful inputs and reporting to deliver actionable insights for management.
* Optimising risk capital steering and allocation, including developing and validating Allianz plc's Internal Model to maintain its robustness and appropriateness.
With the increasing complexity of financial markets, regulatory changes and the evolving risk landscape - along with internal developments such as the assignment of the IAF Prescribed Responsibility 14 in relation to "financial recovery planning and oversight" to the Allianz plc Chief Risk Officer (CRO) - this role has gained heightened significance, offering you the opportunity to provide essential input for key business decisions.

You will also engage with Allianz Group's central functions in Germany to ensure alignment and integration of risk management practices.
The position is based in Allianz House, Elmpark, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, and also offers the opportunity to work from home under the new Allianz hybrid working model.
