Job title: Modeler
Company: Risk Management Solutions
Job description: RMS model development team boasts a team of about 100 scientists building mathematical models that predict the distributions of possible damage due to the effects of earthquakes, tropical storms, extra-tropical storms, thunderstorms, storm-surges, and floods, using a combination of observed data, reanalysis data, numerical and statistical models and data assimilation. RMS is the pioneer on the development and application of complex statistical and numerical modelling methods for the quantification of natural hazard risk. RMS’ risk models are the most detailed and comprehensive models of natural catastrophes produced anywhere in the world. Our clients include several hundred insurance and reinsurance companies as well as brokers, banks, hedge funds, regional and local governments, and multilateral agencies.
