“We found Guardian Actuarial to be a highly responsive and extremely helpful group in our recent academic program development work. Julia was very professional in all our dealings which included: meetings with corporates, presentation of results of data analysis, liaising with senior university representatives and report writing.
We recommend Guardian Actuarial to groups needing highly competent and reliable advice to move forward on complex projects that require actuarial expertise. We found that Guardian Actuarial were excellent communicators who listened to our needs and responded very effectively. Guardian Actuarial is a highly professional consultancy that values relationships and is highly skilled at stakeholder management.”

“Guardian Actuarial worked with Zurich assisting in the development of our proposition and go to market offering. A key part of the process was to bring together in a collaborative environment representatives from our underwriting, distribution, product, actuarial and digital teams to ensure best practice was incorporated into end outcomes from all perspectives.
Guardian Actuarial helped Zurich in overall project management and in running workshops across functions. I was particularly pleased with the role Guardian Actuarial played working with our cross functional team ensuring all voices were heard during this assignment.”

“Guardian Actuarial prides itself on professionalism and integrity. Just one interaction with Julia and you will see that she is genuine, intelligent and totally people focussed.
Julia has an innate ability to coach and guide. Her effortless leadership skills always left me feeling supported and empowered.
Her enthusiasm to see you succeed is palpable, and her guidance grounded in real world experience.
Julia invited me to an Actuarial networking group during my first week as a graduate employee. I was both shocked and thrilled at the invitation. However, over time I realise investing in people has been a core value of Julia's long before she joined the corporate world.”
