Commercial Underwriter - Newport

£18.4 - £21.5 per hourEstimated
Full-time

Description

Amid a fanfare of publicity, one of Wales’ best-known entrepreneurs has made his long-awaited return to the insurance industry. Having previously made a veritable fortune by combining his passion for innovation with first-class client service, he has invested significantly in cutting-edge technology and is sure to set the market by storm once more.

As such, this is a superb opportunity to join a business with unlimited potential in its infancy, and join its founder on what is sure to be a truly fascinating journey!

As one of the first employees of the company, you will enjoy a varied role alongside a high profile in the business, and get the chance to work on a number of exciting projects as the business evolves, such as supporting product development and helping to set underwriting strategy.

You’ll be responsible for underwriting commercial insurance risks across a range of SME products, for clients from a range of sectors such as property owners, construction, retail and manufacturing etc. You will provide technical support to brokers and customers, and help maintain profitable growth through sound underwriting decisions.

You will be underwriting new business, renewals and mid-term adjustments, assessing the risks to make decisions within your authority. You will also ensure that all work carried out is done so in a fashion that complies with both FCA regulations and inhouse protocols.
It is essential that you have a sound understanding of Commercial Combined insurance, along with a willingness to develop your knowledge of other lines such as Professional Indemnity.

As this is effectively a tech start up operating with bespoke computer systems and its own, state of the art artificial intelligence software, it is essential that you are tech savvy and a real advocate of AI. You’ll enjoy keeping abreast of the latest developments in the tech world, and you must be comfortable working in a fast paced, ever-changing environment.

You’ll enjoy working from modern offices in Cardiff city centre, with free parking and close proximity to local amenities. Our client offers a hybrid-working model, and is very flexible in this regard, giving high levels of empowerment to its staff and promoting a ‘results focused’ culture.

Given this entrepreneur’s previous phenomenal success in the insurance industry, this business is sure to be a huge success, and this is an extremely exciting time to capitalise on all the opportunities it has to offer.

In return, you will receive a generous basic salary, and a range of company benefits including a lucrative profit share bonus that simply cannot be rivalled in the market. Longer-term, the opportunities for progression and development are enormous.
