What I'm looking for

I am seeking a mid-level role in medical insurance or risk analytics where I can apply underwriting and actuarial skills, improve processes, and contribute to data-driven decisions in a collaborative, compliance-focused team.

I am an accomplished medical underwriter and actuarial technician with experience refining insurance quotations, ensuring compliance, and streamlining policy processes.

I have worked across corporate and retail medical schemes, reviewing new and renewing business documentation and coordinating with intermediaries and claims teams to reduce underwriting risk. I emphasize clear stakeholder communication and meticulous attention to detail in every task.

I delivered measurable operational improvements, including reducing policy endorsements turnaround time by 25% and ensuring rapid endorsement circulation and benefit‑platform activations to improve client satisfaction. I also supported utilization reporting and scheme structure enhancements informed by claims analysis and client feedback.

I hold a BSc in Actuarial Science and am progressing toward actuarial qualification while expanding skills in monitoring & evaluation and data analytics to drive better risk insights and process improvements.
