Actuary Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a actuary in Pennsylvania?

Becoming an actuary in Pennsylvania starts with earning a bachelor's degree in actuarial science, mathematics, or statistics, then passing preliminary exams through the Society of Actuaries or Casualty Actuarial Society. Pennsylvania does not issue a separate state actuarial license, so professional credentials like Associate or Fellow designations from these national bodies are what employers recognize. Most Pennsylvania candidates begin sitting for exams while completing their degree or in their first entry-level role.

Which companies hire actuarys in Pennsylvania?

Employers hiring actuarys in Pennsylvania right now include Lincoln Financial, Pryor Associates, and Independence Blue Cross, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Pennsylvania's concentration of major insurance carriers and financial services headquarters in the Philadelphia region means a broad and consistent pipeline of actuarial openings across health, life, and property and casualty lines.

Which Pennsylvania cities have the most actuary jobs?

Radnor, Philadelphia, and West Chester have the most actuary openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia drives the largest volume given its density of insurance company headquarters, large health systems, and financial services firms, while Pittsburgh's growing financial and healthcare sector and Harrisburg's proximity to state government and insurance regulatory bodies account for consistent hiring in those markets.

Are there remote actuary jobs in Pennsylvania?

Yes, and more than most fields, since actuarial work is almost entirely analytical and desk-based. About 82% of actuary openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well-suited the role is to distributed work. Pricing, reserving, and predictive modeling positions tend to be the most frequently offered on a remote or hybrid basis.

How can I get hired as a actuary in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying for actuarial analyst or actuarial student roles at Pennsylvania-based insurance carriers and consulting firms, which are specifically structured for candidates who have passed one or two preliminary exams but hold little professional experience. Companies like Lincoln Financial Group and Independence Blue Cross run formal actuarial development programs for new graduates. Lateral entry from adjacent roles in data analytics or underwriting is also common, and passing even a single SOA or CAS exam gives a candidate a meaningful edge in the Pennsylvania market.

Where can I find and apply to actuary jobs in Pennsylvania?

You can find and apply to actuary jobs in Pennsylvania on Migrate Mate, which lists current Pennsylvania openings from employers actively hiring. Find the roles that fit your experience and credentials and apply directly to the ones that match.
