Volunteering & Contributions

Neha maintains an active presence in the actuarial community through:

  • IFOA, UK: Active member of the Net Zero Working Party since 2023.
  • Education/Advisory: Serves as an Assistant Examiner, content writer, and exam counsellor for CAA Global, and has served on advisory groups for Pensions and Social Security.

My Recommendation

My recommendation is based on working with Neha at Mazars on audit engagements. Neha is an Actuarial Manager and worked with me on two medium-sized audits and a few smaller engagements.

Neha started and integrated in the team very well. She proved to be a fast learner. She always understood quickly insurers’ and their businesses’ specifics and would adapt review requirements to these. Neha would never restrict her view to a narrow task, but would always step back and try to understand a bigger picture. She would always make sure the task performed is fit for purpose, appropriate and applicable to the business reviewed, would produce meaningful outcome and be of value to the auditor and the client.

Neha is a very energetic and approachable person, and a very knowledgeable actuary. She is always up to a challenge at work and very capable of delivering on engagements.

I worked with Neha when she was at PwC. She is a fine actuary – conscientious, hard-working, sharp and personable. She will be a credit to any organisation.

Next Destination

Currently, I serve as an Actuarial Contractor, leveraging my background from top-tier firms like PwC, EY, and Willis Towers Watson to provide actionable, independent recommendations to global clients. Beyond my project work, I am an active contributor to the actuarial community, serving as an exam counsellor and member of the Net Zero Working Party.
