CAT RISK ANALYST
This is a great opportunity for a catastrophe modeler with some experience in a similar position or a PHD, MSc student in Atmospheric Science.
This is an expansive role with excellent growth and development opportunities. The successful candidate will over time; be exposed to a large number of clients and re-insurers, become familiar with the nuances of structuring and pricing efficient reinsurance programmes, and learn how to match a client's risk appetite against the correct reinsurers and products to secure the best coverage on their behalf.
The successful candidate will initially provide cat model support for the wider team, for which they will receive comprehensive training on RMS, AIR and CoreLogic. This extends not just to manipulating exposure data and producing modelled loss estimates, but also to correctly interpreting and communicating the findings to brokers, clients and reinsurers. During this period you will also receive training on Guy Carpenters stochastic reinsurance modelling platform, MetaRisk.
Full details are attached.

Franco-Argentin d'études sur le climat et ses impacts, in Buenos

*******************************************************************************************************************************
Call for applications to work at the Institut Franco-Argentin d'études
sur le climat et ses impacts, in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The direction of "Institut Franco-Argentin d'études sur le climat et ses
impacts" (IFAECI) in Buenos Aires, Argentina advertises two positions
available by September 2017. They are opened by CNRS to the candidacy of
researchers and academics from metropolitan France, for a minimum stay
of two years.
IFAECI (<http://www.cima.fcen.uba.ar/UMI>) is a Unité Mixte
Internationale (UMI), i.e., a joint international laboratory, between
the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in France and
the Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET)
and the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA) in Argentina.
One main mission of the UMI is to foster long-lasting collaborations
between Argentina and France. IFAECI members are expected to actively
develop new collaborations and maintain existing ones. Visits and
exchanges between Argentina and France are also strongly encouraged.
The backbone of IFAECI in Argentina is the Centro de Investigaciones del
Mar y la Atmósfera (CIMA <http://www.cima.fcen.uba.ar/>), a joint
institute between CONICET and UBA, but it also includes research groups
located at different facilities of both UBA and CONICET, and gathers
around 55 researchers. The main French counterpart of IFAECI is the
Institut Pierre-Simon Laplace (IPSL <https://www.ipsl.fr/>) in the Paris
area, but cooperation with other French partners is also encouraged.
Because IFAECI is a CNRS laboratory, all its researchers may apply to
calls for projects emanating from INSU, ANR, etc., which has proved very
successful in the past years.
The research agenda of IFAECI is articulated along three general axes:
(i) to better observe, understand, simulate and predict physical
processes driving climate variability and climate change at regional
scale and at every temporal scale, (ii) to foster studies addressing how
climate variability and change will impact population, biodiversity,
production and vulnerability, and (iii) to generate climate information
for application and adaptation.
Geographically, the IFAECI research concerns, first of all, southeastern
South America (which is characterized by a signal of large climate
variability and change impacting the socio-economic regions of
Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay); the extratropical Andes region
(which contains vulnerable mountain glaciers and water sources with
strong socio-economic impacts on both Argentina and Chile); the South
Atlantic Ocean (its western portion being one of the most productive
regions of the world and including the Río de la Plata Estuary, of large
relevance for Argentina and Uruguay). IFAECI researchers also have
strong cooperation with colleagues of other institutions of South
America (Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, etc.). Because of
its strong emphasis on process studies and the development of
observation and modeling tools, the research carried out at IFAECI is
also fully relevant to other parts of the world.
More information about IFAECI and recent activities can be found at
<http://www.cima.fcen.uba.ar/UMI/>.
Applications from all fields of climate research are welcome. Applicants
must hold a permanent position in France, from a public research
organization (such as CNRS) or from a university under cover of a CNRS
appointment (délégation CNRS). Non-CNRS applicants should inquire about
the conditions set up by their home institution, preferably before
applying to the positions.
The initial deadline for applications is 15 February 2017, and
evaluation will start immediately after. Applications will be received
until the positions are filled.
We strongly encourage initial contacts before applying:
Dr. Claudia G. Simionato, Director of the UMI IFAECI
(<simionato@cima.fcen.uba.ar>),
Dr. Bruno Blanke, Scientific Deputy Director at CNRS/INSU
(<bruno.blanke@cnrs-dir.fr>).
Application forms should include a research statement, a plan for
on-going and foreseen research collaborations in Argentina, and a brief
CV.
Applications should be sent to CNRS/INSU (for the attention of Bruno
Blanke, <bruno.blanke@cnrs-dir.fr>).
