Alight Solutions India

Alight Solutions India LLP is the Indian arm of Alight, the US company that administers employee benefits, payroll and pensions for large employers. Alight was formed from Aon's benefits-administration business. Its Indian offices include Chennai, Gurugram and Noida.

Alight's Indian pension work is actuarial-adjacent rather than actuarial valuation. Associate Analysts in Chennai calculate US defined benefit pension entitlements and run plan testing, using plan rules, member data and actuarial factors. The postings ask for a degree in mathematics, statistics or actuarial science but do not carry an actuarial job title.

For a student, Alight is a large-volume entry point: it builds understanding of how pension plan rules turn into benefit payments, and it can be a stepping stone to valuation roles at consultancies. It is not a substitute for a role that supports actuarial exams directly.

Alight posts Associate Analyst roles in US defined benefits and testing, and in pension calculation, on its careers site (careers.alight.com) and on job boards, mainly for Chennai. These roles ask for a degree in mathematics, statistics or actuarial science and good Excel; actuarial papers are not required but CS1 or CM1 helps. Internships are not published.
