Salary: Up to £65,000 + up to 17.5% annual bonus + benefits
About the role
We’re on an exciting journey at NFU Mutual as we bring our insurance products online through BRIDGE, our internal transformational programme. As part of this evolution, we have a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Underwriter to join the programme as an Underwriting Transformation Consultant.
This is a unique chance to play a key role in shaping the future of underwriting at NFU Mutual. You’ll be at the heart of our Policy Administration System implementation, with a primary focus on Car, LGV, CV and Agricultural Vehicle insurance. Using your underwriting expertise, you’ll help streamline processes and improve ways of working, allowing underwriters to focus on complex risks while enabling more straight-through processing for our agencies and sales & service teams.
In this role, you’ll:
* Translate underwriting appetite into practical rules and requirements.
* Collaborate with workstreams across the Programme to shape policy management processes and operating procedures.
* Influence decisions that drive continuous improvement and deliver meaningful change.
* Support the wider programme with expert underwriting input.
* Champion the rollout of the new system by shaping learning materials and supporting successful adoption across the business.
If you’re passionate about underwriting and excited by the prospect of driving meaningful transformation, this role offers a brilliant opportunity to make a real impact.
About you
We’re looking for an experienced Underwriter with a strong background in Motor Underwriting to help shape the future of our underwriting processes. You’ll bring a deep understanding of underwriting risks, best practices, and the UK insurance market, along with the insight to anticipate trends that may impact our business.
However, we also recognise that expertise in Policy Administration System (PAS) builds, systems changes, or Guidewire experience is also valuable. If you have a broad commercial underwriting background but tick the other key boxes (such as experience in systems transformation or guidewire) we’d love to hear from you too.
We’re also looking for:
* Forward-thinking mindset– You can think outside the box, challenge the status quo, and offer innovative ideas on how we adopt change and design more effective processes.
* Judgement & decision-making– You’re comfortable making impactful decisions, even with limited information, and can confidently weigh up long-term consequences.
* Strong collaboration skills– You build and maintain productive relationships at all levels, working seamlessly across teams and functions.
* Communication & influence– You can clearly articulate complex ideas, influence stakeholders, and constructively challenge viewpoints to drive positive change.
* Change & transformation experience– While not essential, experience in process improvement, transformation projects, or a PolicyCenter build would be a definite advantage.
If you're ready to use your expertise to shape the future of underwriting, drive transformation, and influence meaningful change, we'd love to hear from you!
