  • Coordinating with Group Accumulation Management team (Research and Development) and others on the technical aspects of catastrophe loss modelling
  • Liaising with customer-facing colleagues from Zurich Resilience Solutions for the implementation of the models & communication of output, including through visualization tools, documentation and thought leadership
