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.
The Department follows the Civil Service Code and as such civil servants are appointed on merit on the basis on fair and open competition.
Civil Service recruitment principles
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 Recruitment Principles issued by the Civil Service Commission. If you wish to make a complaint, please contact HR Director Simon Bancroft-Rimmer (simon.bancroft-rimmer@gad.gov.uk). If you have further enquiries or are not satisfied with the response you receive from the Department, please contact the Civil Service Commission.

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.
