  • Technical referral point for underwriters
  • Training and development of underwriters
  • Develop relationships with capacity providers
  • Develop an understanding of our portfolio including the key trends of our book and the market as a whole.

  • Established history of delivering exceptional results while partnering with brokers, renowned for their outstanding reputation in the market
  • Excellent time management and organisation
  • Ability to work collaboratively within a team
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong analytical, problem solving and attention to detail skills required
  • Attractive salary with opportunity to grow
