For Contractors
Afrishore Quant is building a network of talented South African actuarial analysts to work on a contract basis with leading international insurers. This is not just contracting. This is career acceleration.
A New Kind of Opportunity
We are looking for analysts with one to five years of post-graduate experience who are on the path to professional actuarial qualification, and who want more from their early career than the conventional route offers.
Projects range from one to 12 months. You choose when you are available. You set your own work-life balance. You get international business exposure and expand your network. And you get paid significantly more than the equivalent role in South Africa.
Register Your InterestWhy Consider This
Four reasons why international actuarial contracting through Afrishore Quant could be the smartest move of your early career.
Market research confirms significant demand for contractors. Insurers across multiple markets are actively seeking analysts with your skill set, creating a genuine opportunity right now.
Career progression can feel limited for junior analysts in South Africa. International contracting opens new fields, new challenges, and new possibilities, without requiring you to relocate.
Contracting with Afrishore Quant offers compensation materially above what you would earn at the equivalent level in South Africa, putting more in your pocket right now.
Every project connects you with professionals in international actuarial markets. Contacts that can open doors to future permanent roles if and when you want them.
What Afrishore Quant Offers You
Earn materially more than the equivalent role in South Africa. We offer contractor rates that reflect the value of your skills in international markets.
You choose when you are available. Alternate busy periods with downtime. No rigid schedules. You manage your own work-life balance in a way no permanent role can match.
Work across different actuarial disciplines: life insurance, pensions, general insurance, data analytics and more. Build a breadth of experience to inform where you want to specialise.
Every engagement puts you in contact with actuarial professionals across international markets. Build relationships that could lead to future permanent roles, wherever in the world you want to be.
Get real, hands-on experience working in actuarial markets beyond South Africa. Understand how they operate, what they value, and whether they are the right long-term fit for you. Whether or not you eventually decide to work abroad permanently, this experience is an asset that will remain with you for the rest of your career.
Earning Potential
Actuarial skills are valued differently across markets. International insurers pay significantly more for the work you do.
Figures are illustrative. Actual rates depend on experience, specialism and project scope.
Contractor rates with Afrishore Quant are set to reflect the premium placed on actuarial expertise in international markets, materially higher than equivalent permanent roles in South Africa.
You are compensated for the work you do, and you choose how much of it to take on. Work intensively when it suits you, and step back when you need to.
Clients provide feedback at the end of each engagement. Those who consistently excel attract more placements, better projects, and higher rates over time.
Your Experience, Expanded
Skill Development
Projects span life insurance, general insurance, data analytics and more. Working across different actuarial areas, and on different types of projects within a particular area, helps you decide where your strengths and interests truly lie. This gives you a breadth of experience that is difficult to build inside a single permanent role.
Network Building
Work on projects ranging from one to 12 months across leading international firms, broadening your international network with each engagement, opening doors to future career opportunities.
"Flexible availability. A gateway to international markets. Exposure across disciplines. This is your career, expanded, on your terms."
