Risk Management Research and Thought Leadership Sub-committee – members

Application closing date: 28 November

The Risk Management Research and Thought Leadership Sub-committee is responsible to the Risk Management Board for all matters relating to research and thought leadership, specifically within the risk management practice area.

The IFoA is seeking to appoint both members and suitably experienced or qualified non-members to join this committee to support the IFoA’s active programme of risk management research.

Volunteers will have a passion for actively fostering and driving forward all stages of research and thought leadership for their peers working in the risk management practice area.

We are particularly interested in new members who can support the committee’s current goals to:

  • improve promotion of the research output of our working parties
  • ensure research outputs demonstrate the value that an actuarial viewpoint / skill set has brought to research
  • ensure research outputs speak to how the research can meaningfully inform business decision making

For full details, please see:

Time commitment

The time commitment is approximately one day per month, made up of regular meetings of the committee and contributing to research support activates in between.

Meetings will be held by conference call / video conference to allow us to widen this opportunity to all.
