Careers at SOA
The Society of Actuaries (SOA) is the world’s largest actuarial organization. With roots dating back to 1889, the SOA has more than 31,000 actuaries as members in 86 countries and over 30,000 actuarial candidates in 105 countries. The SOA employs 147 people in the Chicago area, Canada, and China to help fulfill its mission through research and education, to advance actuaries as leaders in measuring and managing risk, and to improve financial outcomes for individuals, organizations, and the public.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Staff Vision
The SOA seeks out, welcomes, and employs individuals with diverse backgrounds. We celebrate the diverse experiences, opinions, and perspectives that are reflected in society.
The SOA supports and encourages its staff to express themselves freely and respectfully without repercussion through an authentic, open, and inclusive culture that provides opportunities for all to grow and succeed in a safe and equitable work environment.
The SOA seeks out relationships with partners and vendors that support diversity, equity, and inclusion as part of their culture and business practices.
- The SOA’s CEO Greg Heidrich signed the CEO Action for Diversity & InclusionTM pledge in support of the SOA’s DEI efforts, pledging to make our organization a trusting place to have complex conversations about diversity and inclusion.
- The SOA’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee (DEIC) works closely with our leadership and staff to support the future of the profession, as part of the SOA’s Long-Term Growth Strategy.
