The Opportunity

As an Actuary on the Dental Pricing team, you will play a central role in maintaining and advancing the pricing capabilities that support MetLife’s Dental business. You will own critical pricing tools, systems, actuarial studies, and regulatory deliverables, using your technical expertise and business judgment to influence pricing strategy, financial performance, and customer value.

You will be involved with broad exposure across the Dental organization and the opportunity to become a trusted subject-matter expert for Underwriting, Product, Contracts and Compliance, Valuation, and other business partners. You will lead work ranging from state rate filings and pricing-system updates to renewal analysis, product initiatives, and actuarial studies. If you enjoy solving complex business problems, modernizing established processes, and translating detailed analysis into clear recommendations, this role provides a strong platform for professional growth and organizational impact.

• Lead recurring financial and strategic analysis, including renewal cycle reviews, experience studies, and data analysis supporting pricing and finance decisions. Translate results into clear recommendations for leaders and business partners.
• Lead dental regulatory pricing work, including rate filings, Minimum Loss Ratio filings, and other state regulatory requests. Prepare actuarial support, respond to objections, and partner with Contracts, Compliance, Legal, and state regulators to secure required approvals.
• Serve as a strategic actuarial partner for Underwriting, Product, Contracts and Compliance, Segment Finance, Centers of Excellence, and Valuations. Support product initiatives such as incentive provisions, connected benefits, benefit expansions, and pricing methodology enhancements, while responding to complex business inquiries and emerging priorities.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex actuarial and financial concepts to technical and non-technical audiences and work with external regulatory stakeholders.
• A proactive, ownership-oriented approach with strong attention to detail, sound judgment, thoughtful documentation, and the ability to manage multiple concurrent priorities across teams.
