Careers

The Government Actuary's Department is a unique organisation - a government department and yet an actuarial consulting firm operating on commercial lines.

There are actuaries in public sector roles in many countries, but nowhere else is there such a strong concentration of actuarial talent within a government department, and nowhere else does the Government Actuary advise on such a comprehensive range of topics.

The success of GAD is critically dependent on the high quality of our people.  We are committed to training and development programmes which are aimed at ensuring that all our people gain the skills and experience to realise their full potential.

 

GAD’s recruitment principle

The Department’s recruitment processes are underpinned by the principle of selection for appointment on merit on the basis of fair and open competition as outlined in the Civil Service Commissioners' Code which can be found at www.civilservicecommissioners.org.  If you feel your application has not been treated in accordance with the Code and you wish to make a complaint, you should contact Veronika Heinecke (Veronika.heinecke@gad.gov.uk) in the first instance. If you are not satisfied with the response you receive from the Department, you can contact the Office of the Civil Service Commissioners.”

At GAD we take pride in our diverse and talented workforce. We recognise that our success depends largely on the collective strengths of our employees. Developing the right mix of skills, ideas and individuals requires a strong commitment to equal opportunities. Accordingly, we recruit, hire, train and promote people in all job roles regardless of their race, colour, religion, national origin, gender, age, sexual orientation or disability or any other grounds which are unjustifiable in terms of equality.

GAD follows the Interview Guaranteed Scheme for all applicants with a disability.
