Amanda is a Consulting Actuary, people manager and recruitment specialist at WTW.
We explore how Amanda discovered the actuarial profession, deciding between offers in insurance and pensions consulting, her approach to the exams, the challenges of finding opportunities to shine after qualifying, helping people to find their ideal mix of work, the value of trying something different, and developing a specialism in recruitment at WTW.
I also loved hearing about Amanda’s passion for singing with Vocal Dimension and the Nova quartet, and her love of the theatre, drumming and tapdancing!
I hope you enjoy the conversation!
