Finance at TAL spans performance analysis, expense management, capital management, accounting and compliance, and financial systems — connecting the numbers to the decisions that shape Australia's largest life insurer.
As an Actuarial Graduate, you will join our Finance Actuarial Pathways Program — a structured rotation through multiple areas of the Finance function, designed to build well-rounded actuarial professionals with deep foundational skills.
Rather than a single-team placement, you will rotate through different disciplines over the course of the program, gaining hands-on experience across valuation, financial modelling, reporting, data analytics, and stakeholder engagement. Each rotation is designed to give you enough time to genuinely learn the work and contribute meaningfully — not just observe.
TAL strongly encourages graduates to complete their actuarial qualifications and provides substantial support, including study assistance, dedicated study time, and exam leave, to help you succeed. You will also be supported through mentorship and buddy programs, alongside tailored career guidance to help you grow as a future leader within TAL.
Throughout the Graduate Program, you will develop experience across the following:
- Performing end-to-end monthly valuation processes, from data acquisition through to reporting
- Financial modelling using industry tools and supporting system development
- Analysing and communicating complex actuarial results to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Supporting compliance with regulatory and statutory requirements
- Driving continuous improvement in processes and ways of working
- Building foundational knowledge of actuarial and accounting standards
