Application closing date: 5 February
The IFoA is seeking to appoint proactive volunteers with an interest in professional regulation and disciplinary proceedings to take on the role of investigation actuaries working within the IFoA’s Disciplinary Scheme.
The main purpose of the Disciplinary Scheme is to protect the public by maintaining the standards of IFoA members. While few members come into contact with the Disciplinary Scheme, it plays a crucial role in maintaining professional standards and public confidence in the profession. To support trust in our profession, it is essential that we have a rigorous, fair and robust disciplinary process.
The investigation of allegations of misconduct under the IFoA Disciplinary Scheme is led by a case manager (a member of the IFoA’s internal Disciplinary Investigations Team). Depending on the nature and complexity of an allegation, an investigation actuary may be appointed to assist the case manager in their investigation.
Successful candidates will be appointed to a ‘pool’ of investigation actuaries. Within the pool we seek to create a diverse range of practice expertise and geographic spread. The Regulatory Appointments Committee (RAC) nominates a chair and deputy chair from the pool, whose remit includes assigning investigation actuaries and monitoring the quality and progress of investigations.
Investigation actuaries will be asked to serve on a case-by-case basis. Time commitment can be discussed before any appointment is made.
The time commitment varies depending on the nature of the case to which the investigation actuary is appointed. The case manager takes on the majority of the work, seeking input from the investigation actuary as required.
