Skills and ExperienceWe’re looking for someone who brings:
Property & Liability underwriting expertise — confident in assessing risk and delivering profitable, well-structured solutions.
Strong relationship-building and communication skills — able to engage effectively with brokers and customers, negotiate terms, and influence outcomes.
Analytical judgement and decision-making ability — comfortable interpreting data and risk factors to create tailored underwriting terms.
Excellent time management and prioritisation — able to manage multiple cases and deadlines efficiently.
Regulatory awareness and organisational understanding — knowledge of FCA requirements and experience working within a large, complex organisation.
