AB/228

Location:
Yorkshire

Regional Underwriter Manager

Posted: 09 March 2022

Job description

Our client is one of the fastest growing insurance organisations operating within the UK insurance market today. They are a progressive and proactive organisation with regional offices located throughout the UK.

They are seeking a Regional Underwriting Manager to join their team in Leeds (which could suit a Senior Underwiter looking to make the next step up), responsible for developing and executing a strategy and leading a business unit within the Northern Regions which includes Yorkshire, Northeast, Lancashire, and the surrounding areas.  The focus of the role will be to deliver financial, Insurer and qualitative targets whilst ensuring robust target and objective setting is maintained in line with business strategy. Within this role you use your expertise to lead the team on all technical underwriting matters, whilst also being very visible in the market, and dealing with a case load of your own which will usually be the more complex and larger accounts.

Ideal applicants will be from a commercial insurance company/MGA background. The main aspects of this role are to be technically competent and have experience/knowledge on property/casualty and commercial combined risk (contractors would be an advantageous); to have the ability to trade effectively with the brokers you’d work with (thinking outside of the box); and be able to lead from the front.

This is quite a unique opportunity which offers fantastic career potential, and one that could suit someone who is performing a similar position, or, maybe a Senior Underwriter feels there is limited opportunities to progress within their current role/company.

Key Accountabilities/Deliverables:

Person Specification:

Very attractive basic salary on offer, bonus, pension, PMI, and additional staff benefits would be offered for this role.

For further information please contact Andy Baker on 07834 596414/0113 4931720 or email andy@cryerbaker.co.uk
