Programme overview:
You will be joining Hastings Pricing Data and Analytics (PDA) community; a friendly and inclusive group that brings together colleagues from different departments and functions. We work together to centralise data for decision-making. The community is built on collaboration and trust, with data, predictive models, scores, and engineered data features being shared among the PDA community.
The PDA graduate programme is made up of 3 different pathways: Actuarial, Engineering, and Data Science & Analytics.
Engineering:
As a member of the Engineering programme, you will work closely with business stakeholders to build and maintain data, pricing, and claims assets to support analytical teams. This means you could be working on anything from curating quote, policy, or claims data, to deploying new pricing algorithms, automation, or fraud detection.
Data Science:
The Data Science & Analytics Graduate Programme is designed to give you the opportunity to apply innovative data science techniques to solve real-world business challenges and deliver commercial value.
Actuarial:
The Actuarial Graduate Programme involves participating in project-based activities and tasks during placements, interacting with various stakeholders across the organisation. You will learn the company's current actuarial modelling techniques and explore new tools, platforms, and methods for generating insights.
