About Brit


At Brit, we believe that the uncertainty of the future should never stand in the way of progress. That’s why we exist. To help people and businesses face the future and thrive. We are change-makers enabled by a global workforce who collaborate to deliver a risk service. A team empowered to help our customers not only to survive the risks they face, but to stay on the front foot and keep moving forward. We believe the uncertainty of tomorrow isn’t something to fear but to seize; that it’s full of potential. Not only for our customers but our employees too.
We might write the future of risk for our brokers and clients, but we would love to help you write your future at Brit: a future based on not just progressing but on thriving – both professionally and emotionally. If you’re looking for a place to make a real difference read on.


What you’ll be doing


You’ll join us in this Underwriting role with a difference, underwriting profitable business in line with the Class business plan, individual underwriting authorities and the syndicate underwriting guidelines. You’ll assist the Senior & Class Underwriter in proactively driving improved underwriting performance via the use of analytics and directly influencing the pricing, aggregation and underlying mix of the Property Portfolio. As such, you’ll have achieved Dip CII qualification as a minimum and eager to continue your ACII journey, or perhaps you’ll already have completed this.

Credibility and relationships are key in this market, you’ll have a ‘client first’ mindset and enjoy providing exceptional cover to them. You’ll have some insurance experience and any experience you may have of portfolio analysis, analysing trends and clear and concise communication of analytical results would be beneficial, gained either from your career to date or from academic study.

You’ll benefit from working alongside our ‘best in class’ Underwriting team in an inclusive, engaging and diverse environment with enormous potential for personal and career development. This is your time to shine!



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.
