Actuarial Technician Apprentice - Bristol

Help us empower our people and Help Britain Prosper

At Lloyds Banking Group, we are passionate about delivering high-quality apprenticeship experiences to support everyone to realise their full potential.

This is an opportunity to learn skills, gain a qualification and earn a salary, all while playing a meaningful role in shaping finance as force for good.

You’ll play a crucial role in the success and integrity of our business. As a trusted insurance provider to millions, we must make the right decisions for both our business and our customers. Our Actuarial teams make sure we do.

By helping customers protect what matters most to them, our insurance business plays a key part in our drive to Help Britain Prosper. We're one of the largest insurers in the UK, supporting around six million customers every day with their insurance, pensions, and investment needs. 

Our Actuarial teams make sure colleagues and decision-makers have everything they need to understand insurance risks, making sure we always operate responsibly.

What you’ll learn

On this scheme, we’ll share the full scale of our insurance business and give you a detailed insight into everything that being an Actuary has to offer. Think insurance is dull? Think again. The work is fascinating, challenging and full of variety. 

You’ll take complex information and turn it into plain English for non-specialist colleagues. So, you’ll need to be a good communicator, and always be looking to learn, ready to work hard to make a positive difference to our business and customers. 

An important part of this scheme will involve completing Actuarial exams aimed at providing you with the knowledge and skills to be successful in your role and qualify as an Actuary. But don’t worry, we’ll provide you with industry leading study support, to help you every step of the way. 

Your apprenticeship journey will take around 27 months to complete and cover things such as:

• Practical mathematics and statistics

• Financial mathematics

• Money laundering

• Actuaries code.

On completion of the level 4 apprenticeship, you will  progress to a higher level apprenticeship with a view of becoming a fully qualified Actuary.

Why Lloyds Banking Group?

Join us and, as well as making a difference to customers, you’ll enjoy a fulfilling career where you’re free to be yourself. Great colleagues, transforming workspaces, hybrid working and a wide variety of career opportunities – you’ll find them all here.

What you’ll need to apply

• GCSE (or equivalent) at grade 4-9 in both Maths and English (Language and / or Literature)

• PLUS - 3 A levels (or equivalent) at grade A*-C

• You will need one of these A levels to be in Maths at grade B or higher.

These grades can be predicted, but any offer made to you will be conditional upon successful achievement of these qualifications.

• You’ll also need to be at least 18 years old on 1st September 2025.

Whilst we welcome candidates who have a degree, this cannot be in a field related to the apprenticeship due to a crossover in learning. We’ll request a copy of your degree module transcript to review if your degree may contain prior learning.

About working for us

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms. We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture. We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative. And it’s why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups.

Important information

Due to Home Office requirements regarding Skilled Workers, we’re unable to accept applications for visa sponsorship for our apprenticeship roles as the proposed salary for the role does not meet the minimum threshold – if this situation applies to you, please consider looking for other vacancies which may be more suitable.
