On the one hand, a potential employer may be less interested up front if you give them the impression your goal is a different one from the one you are applying for.
But some employers would also be supportive of this, and progressing to others areas might be a common part of company culture. I think it depends on the company, and if you could get someone on the board who works for the company to advise you, that might help.
I'm in your boat, and told my employer my 3-5 yr goal would be to work in actuarial. She was fine with that, and couldn't be happier to have someone with real Excel skills teach her analysts that use Excel all the time, and rather inefficiently. I know little about health insurance, so this experience is good background. In the end I might find that some other position presents reasonable advancement opportunities.
You can always work on the exams without telling your employer at all. With a Ph.D. you sound pretty smart, you should be able to blow through the first 4 in a year or two without too much expense to yourself, and before you know it you WILL be in an actuarial capacity, either at this company or elsewhere. Given the chance, make opportunities to get friendly with actuarial if at all possible, although that's probably easier than said if you don't have a regular business need to be over there.
