Dear Younger Self,
It’s me… I mean, you… 30 years from now. I have this opportunity to share back to you a few things from the future. So, let’s start with the important stuff… Enjoy your hair – it won’t last long.
But seriously, I’m a different person than I was 30 years ago. I guess if you don’t learn something over the next three decades, you’re doing something wrong.
Life at SCOR
The health of our planet and ecosystems are facing unprecedented pressures. During the week of 23 September 2024, our third annual SCOR Sustainability Days offered an opportunity to educate and empower employees to have a positive impact through their work and in their daily lives.
(Re)insurance isn’t sexy. We’re sorry, but it had to be said.
For those on the outside looking in, the industry has yet to shake the reputation of being old fashioned, complex, and boring. Yet behind the scenes this industry offers a dynamic environment with opportunities for professional and personal development. All too often job candidates don’t see this side of the industry – and it is up to us to show them!
Life at SCOR
At SCOR, we strive to contribute to stronger, more resilient societies – and for our 3500+ employees around the world, there is no better place to start than in our local communities. Each year, SCOR’s Engagement Month gives employees the opportunity to get involved and volunteer for the causes that mean the most to them.
Actuaries play a crucial role in (re)insurance, with a high demand for their expertise. Yet this role is often little understood and only a relatively small number of individuals get certified in this field.

As the fourth-generation mathematician of the family (my father was an engineer, my grandfather a math professor and researcher, and my great grandfather a physics teacher), I was lucky to discover actuarial studies as soon as I got out of high school. Through this, I found a way to apply my passion for numbers to the analysis of concrete topics, with applications in many fields and offering great job opportunities.
