Join a leading insurer's top mid-market team, with the opportunity to shape a high-performing portfolio and take the next step in your career.
Lead: Take ownership of a significant National Financial Lines portfolio and influence underwriting strategy.
Influence: Work alongside a high-calibre commercial team with genuine scope to lead people and relationships.
Progress: A rare opportunity to broaden your leadership remit and define your next career chapter.
This is an chance for an experienced Financial Lines Underwriter to step into a role with genuine scope, visibility and influence within one of the market's leading insurers.
The position sits within a highly regarded commercial team and offers far more than technical underwriting. You will play an important role in shaping the direction of the portfolio, strengthening broker relationships, contributing to strategic decisions and helping drive the continued growth and performance of the business.
For the right person, this is a chance to move beyond managing individual risks and take a broader view of portfolio performance, market strategy and team capability.
You will be responsible for managing and developing a substantial Financial Lines portfolio, balancing technical underwriting discipline with commercial objectives and long-term broker relationships.
Key responsibilities will include:
Underwriting complex Financial Lines risks within delegated authority and organisational appetite.
Managing and developing a profitable portfolio across an established commercial broker network.
Building senior relationships with brokers and key distribution partners.
Providing technical guidance and supporting less experienced underwriters.
Contributing to portfolio strategy, appetite and underwriting initiatives.
Identifying opportunities for sustainable growth while maintaining strong risk selection and pricing discipline.
Representing the Financial Lines proposition in the market and strengthening the insurer's position with key brokers.
Working closely with senior stakeholders across underwriting, distribution and the broader commercial business.
What makes this opportunity particularly compelling is the scope to shape what comes next.
The business is looking for someone who can bring strong Financial Lines expertise today while having the ambition and capability to take on greater leadership responsibility tomorrow.
There is genuine opportunity to influence how the portfolio develops, contribute to broader commercial strategy and play an important role in the development of the wider team.
For an experienced underwriter who has reached the point where technical expertise alone is no longer enough, this could be the opportunity to move into a much broader and more influential position.
You will be an experienced Financial Lines underwriter with strong technical foundations, sound commercial judgement and established broker relationships.
You will bring:
Strong experience across Financial Lines underwriting.
Confidence dealing with complex risks and sophisticated broker relationships.
A commercial mindset and understanding of portfolio profitability.
The ability to influence, collaborate and provide technical leadership.
Strong communication and relationship-management skills.
The ambition to take on greater responsibility and develop as a future people or portfolio leader.
This is not simply a role to continue doing what you already do. It is an opportunity to increase your influence, broaden your remit and build the foundations for the next stage of your career within a leading insurer and one of its strongest commercial teams.
If you are ready for a role where your underwriting expertise, commercial judgement and leadership potential can genuinely shape a portfolio and influence the people around you, this is an opportunity worth exploring.
