As a result of continued growth and considerable ongoing investment, one of the UK’s top Construction MGAs seeks a talented Commercial Underwriter to service its renewal book.
This well-established and financially-strong Managing General Agent is growing, year on year, and is renowned for its exclusive covers, efficient service and the technical expertise of its staff.
Boasting a panel of 10 A rated UK insurers puts this company in a very strong position, which is why it is trusted by so many insurance intermediaries. Moreover, being part of a large group, it benefits from one of the best distribution channels in the UK insurance market; evidenced by the fact that the business grew by circa 40% last year.
You will play a proactive role in securing renewal business, which will predominantly include Commercial Combined, Property Owners, and General Liability cases in the SME arena. Using your technical commercial underwriting expertise to negotiate satisfactory terms with your brokers, you will maintain strong working relationships with your panel, engaging in early renewal discussions and pre-empting any challenges along the way. You’ll also be actively encouraged to entertain your brokers; taking them out and spending time with them in order to strengthen working partnerships.
You’ll enjoy working within a very positive team environment that has a great amount of energy about it, in comparison with some competing composites. You’ll also be joining a business that enjoys celebrating its successes and you’ll have the opportunity to attend monthly staff social events.
This company is a big advocate of career development, and there are all sorts of career avenues to pursue beyond the role of an Underwriter, should you wish to do so. For example, there will be opportunities to move into management, as well as broader roles within the wider group of companies. Upon joining the business, you will benefit from a 3-year development plan, which will be reviewed on a quarterly basis, and you’ll have the full support of the driven management team to enable you to achieve your goals and objectives.
You will be rewarded with a basic salary of up to £40K plus a range of company benefits.
