With ACC you'll be supporting people in Aotearoa to stay safe by minimising the incidence and impact of injury, as well as helping them recover from injury if an accident does happen. We need actuaries to help manage the Scheme in a sustainable way, so that it's fair and effective for New Zealanders now, and in the future.

There is a variety of other work including assessments of the effectiveness of injury prevention programmes, input to policy and other scheme design questions, input to wider ACC strategy, and involvement in project work.
You'll be accountable for helping the team deliver great insight and advice to enable sound management of the Scheme. And you'll work with a wide range of stakeholders within, and sometimes outside the organisation.
