Build Something. Lead the Market. Make Your Mark.

This is a rare opportunity for an experienced Financial Lines Underwriter to step into a genuinely influential role with the autonomy to build a portfolio, develop broker relationships and shape the future of a growing Brisbane operation.

With strong global backing, a highly empowered Australian business and ambitious growth plans, this is a role where your experience and market relationships will directly influence the success of the business.

Who will you be working with?

You’ll be joining a globally established specialty insurance business with operations across Australia, the UK, Europe, Bermuda and the Lloyd’s market. While the organisation has significant international scale, the Australian operation retains a high degree of autonomy, with underwriting authority and decision‑making kept close to the local market.

The Northern Region is entering an exciting period of growth, with plans to further establish a Brisbane presence. You’ll work closely with an experienced regional leader who values autonomy, trusts people to deliver and has a strong focus on building a supportive, collaborative team culture.

This is not an environment where you’ll simply become another number in a large corporate structure. You’ll have the chance to influence the day‑to‑day direction of the business, establish the Financial Lines proposition in Brisbane and potentially grow into a broader Northern Region leadership position as the operation develops.

What are the benefits?

- High level of autonomy and local underwriting authority
- Globally backed business with a strong specialty insurance platform
- Competitive remuneration with an attractive performance bonus

What will you be doing?

- Build and manage a profitable Financial Lines portfolio across Brisbane and the Northern Region
- Underwrite new business and renewals across ML, D&O; and PI
- Develop and leverage strong relationships with Brisbane and national brokers
- Proactively identify opportunities and generate new business
- Work closely with Sydney and international underwriting teams and support functions
- Help establish the Brisbane operation, with scope to build a local team over time

What do you need?

- Strong experience underwriting Financial Lines, ideally across ML, D&O; and PI
- An established network of Brisbane insurance brokers and industry relationships
- A proven ability to generate, negotiate and win new business
- Strong technical underwriting skills and commercial judgement
- A self‑starter who thrives with autonomy and enjoys building something new
- Leadership ambition and the ability to influence and grow a developing operation

If you’re an experienced Financial Lines Underwriter who feels ready for more ownership, influence and opportunity, this is a chance to step beyond the traditional underwriting role and genuinely shape a market. With the backing of an established global platform and the freedom to make your mark locally, the potential here is significant.
