Actuary Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a actuary in Texas?
Becoming an actuary in Texas starts with a bachelor's degree in actuarial science, mathematics, or statistics and passing the initial professional exams administered by the Society of Actuaries or the Casualty Actuarial Society. Texas does not require a state-issued actuary license, but most employers expect demonstrated exam progress and eventual Associate or Fellow designation. Gaining experience at a Texas insurer or consulting firm accelerates your credentialing path.
Which companies hire actuarys in Texas?
Employers hiring actuarys in Texas right now include Pryor Associates, National Life, and USAA, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Texas's concentration of large insurance carriers and self-insured health systems means openings appear consistently across property and casualty, health, and life lines of business.
Which Texas cities have the most actuary jobs?
Addison, Texas, and Dallas have the most actuary openings in Texas. Houston leads because of its dense cluster of energy-sector self-insured firms and large regional insurance carriers, Dallas draws volume from corporate headquarters and national insurers with Texas operations, and Austin reflects growth in health-tech and insurtech companies that rely on actuarial talent.
Are there remote actuary jobs in Texas?
Yes, and more than most fields. Actuarial work is desk-based and data-driven, making it well suited to remote arrangements. About 79% of actuary openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting broad employer flexibility. Pricing, reserving, and modeling roles tend to be the most remote-compatible, while roles involving state regulatory filing or client-facing consulting often require some in-office presence.
How can I get hired as a actuary in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an actuarial analyst or actuarial student associate role at a Texas-based insurance carrier or consulting firm. USAA in San Antonio and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas in Richardson both run structured actuarial development programs that bring in candidates who have passed one or two exams. Adjacent roles like data analyst or underwriting analyst at a Texas carrier can also transition into actuarial tracks. Passing at least one Society of Actuaries or Casualty Actuarial Society exam before applying gives candidates a clear edge over those with no exam history.
Where can I find and apply to actuary jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to actuary jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings across Houston, Dallas, Austin, and other markets. Find roles that fit your experience and specialty and apply directly to the employers posting them.
