Purpose:
Athene is seeking an experienced Senior Compliance Analyst to lead and manage product filing projects and regulatory initiatives within our Product Compliance team. This role serves as a critical liaison between internal stakeholders and external regulatory agencies, ensuring timely and compliant filings for annuity products, advertising materials, and Pension Group Annuity (PGA) business.
The ideal candidate will bring deep experience in insurance form filings—including SERFF submissions, objection handling, and regulatory interpretation—and a proactive mindset for improving filing processes and maintaining operational excellence.
Accountabilities:

+ Prepare and submit product filings using SERFF and other systems; respond to state objections and inquiries to obtain prompt approvals for forms, advertising materials, retail annuities, and PGA filings.
+ Own the filing lifecycle: ensure all submitted, approved, and retired forms are properly tracked and implemented in accordance with state regulations.
+ Streamline and optimize the filing process to reduce turnaround time between file preparation, submission, and approval.
+ Review and approve contract form pages to confirm annuity contracts issued to customers align with approved state variations.
+ Maintain comprehensive filing databases for product submissions, approvals, and retirements; ensure internal systems reflect the most current regulatory status.
+ Build and sustain productive relationships with state insurance departments, the Interstate Insurance Compact (IIPRC), and other regulatory bodies.
+ Monitor and interpret evolving state insurance laws and regulations, assess their business impact, and provide actionable guidance to stakeholders.
+ Mentor and provide oversight to junior analysts on filing best practices and compliance standards.
+ Participate in industry meetings and working groups to stay current on trends and developments in annuity product regulation.
+ Perform additional compliance projects and initiatives as assigned.
Qualifications and Experience:
+ Bachelor’s degree or equivalent combination of education and experience.
+ 5+ years of experience in annuity product compliance and regulatory filings—including hands-on SERFF filing experience—is strongly preferred.
+ Proven understanding of state regulatory requirements for annuity and insurance products.
+ Ability to interpret and apply regulatory changes to product filings and business operations.
+ Strong analytical, organizational, and project management skills with keen attention to detail.
+ Excellent communication skills with the ability to interact confidently across all organizational levels and with external regulators.
+ Familiarity with insurance operations, product development, and compliance systems.
+ Demonstrated ability to manage multiple filings and deadlines simultaneously in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
