Job Description

Providing for loved ones, planning rewarding retirements, saving enough for whatever lies ahead – our policyholders count on us to be there when it matters most. It's a big ask, but it's one that we have the power to deliver when we work together. We collaborate and innovate – pushing one another to transform not just Pacific Life, but the entire industry for the better. Why? Because it's the right thing to do. Pacific Life is more than a job, it's a career with purpose. It's a career where you have the support, balance, and resources to make a positive impact on the future – including your own.

You'll focus on mortality by evaluating risk of death which includes history, degree of medical maintenance, treatment, and flags of potential future risk. Our underwriters are a crucial part to the placement of Life Insurance coverage and can directly impact our position in the marketplace and relationship with distribution partners.

Now is a great time to join our Underwriting team. We have undertaken a transformational effort to update our tools and achieve accelerated underwriting. Our underwriters are empowered to grow their careers through learning and development opportunities.
