We are delighted to be partnering with this world-leading insurance company that is seeking a talented Senior Professional Indemnity Underwriter.
This role can be fully-home-based, although there will be occasional face-to-face team meetings required in a regional office.
This company is well-renowned for providing innovative insurance solutions, using its ingenuity to insure risks that others can’t.
This position has arisen due to the company’s impressive expansion; it is enjoying 20% year-on-year growth and is on track to double in size over the next 5 years.
Working within the specialist Financial Lines Division, you’ll be underwriting incoming new business enquiries from a variety of brokers throughout the UK, using your sound technical and negotiation skills to secure profitable business.
Specific duties will include:
1. Underwriting large and complex renewal cases.
2. Collaborating with the Claims team.
3. Developing and maintaining excellent working relationships with the Technical department and the wider business.
4. Getting involved in interesting ad hoc projects.
You must have strong experience within the Professional Indemnity arena, and candidates from various specialisms (such as the Professions, Miscellaneous, Tech, Life Sciences, etc.) will be considered. Excellent communication skills and a good track record of maintaining and developing relationships are essential.
“This is by no means a ‘dead-end’ senior underwriting role,” says the Director. “We are extremely passionate about developing our staff, and this role has genuine potential to progress into various areas, such as Product Line Management, General Management, Technical, Compliance, Sales, and more.”
You’ll be rewarded with a generous basic salary (Negotiable depending on experience), plus a highly lucrative 25% bonus scheme and impressive corporate benefits, including substantial pension contributions. While this role can be fully remote, you will always be welcome to work in one of our client’s offices as much as you like!
