What you’ll be doing
You'll underwrite direct Casualty risks for Brit Global Specialty in line with our approved business plan and within your individual authority. You'll evaluate and control risks, monitor capacity and refer matters to the Class Underwriter when appropriate, helping us build a strong and sustainable portfolio across the general commercial insurance market.
Working closely with the Class Underwriter, you'll support business planning and help maintain performance against agreed key indicators. You'll contribute information for company reporting, support client audits and peer reviews, and make sure relevant underwriting information is recorded and reported within regulatory requirements. You'll also keep up to date with market developments, analyse trends and use your findings to support sound underwriting decisions.
You'll build effective relationships with brokers and help research and develop new business opportunities. You'll share your knowledge with colleagues, support the development of underwriting assistants and work collaboratively across the division, always acting with integrity, care and good judgement while keeping customers and fair outcomes in mind.
We welcome everyone wholeheartedly
We’ve got a truly diverse, genuinely inclusive work environment. We comfortably and confidently bring our whole selves to work, because we know we’ll be respected, valued and accepted whoever we are. Our Employee Resource groups are safe spaces for people to share their experiences, aspirations and suggestions about how we do things.
