About us

Actuaries have analytical skills that help decision makers take account of financial risk and uncertainty. At the Government Actuary’s Department our mission is to support effective decision-making and robust reporting within government as the first-choice provider of actuarial and specialist analysis, advice and assurance.

We have a complex and pivotal role in helping the government spend wisely and save money. We apply specialist skills in insurance, investment, data science, modelling, quality assurance, pensions and social security.
