  • Identify opportunities to improve account performance, including rate adequacy, coverage adjustments, and risk improvement measures.
  • Work collaboratively with New Business, Trading, Claims and Distribution teams to deliver a consistent customer experience.
  • Ensure underwriting decisions align with appetite, governance, and profitability targets.
  • Provide insight into portfolio trends and contribute to regional planning and performance reviews.
  • Support junior underwriters by sharing technical knowledge and promoting best practice.


What We’re Looking For

  • Strong experience underwriting Property & Liability risks within Commercial P&C.
  • Solid technical understanding of Mid‑Market renewal dynamics and risk assessment.
  • Confident negotiator with a relationship‑driven approach to broker engagement.
  • Commercial judgement and the ability to make balanced, profitable decisions.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build trusted broker partnerships.
  • A collaborative mindset and willingness to support team development and regional goals.


What’s on Offer

  • Ownership of a well‑established Property & Liability renewal portfolio.
  • A supportive team culture with strong regional leadership.
  • Clear progression pathways and opportunities to broaden your underwriting scope.
  • Competitive salary and benefits aligned with senior underwriting responsibilities.
