New Business Underwriter

£45k per annum
Manchester

Trading Underwriter
Location: Manchester (Hybrid Working)
Salary: Up to £45,000 + Bonus + Benefits

IPS Group is partnering with a highly regarded specialist MGA to recruit a New Business / Trading Underwriter into its Manchester team. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established and successful business specialising in non-standard property risks, including landlord, unoccupied, overseas and other specialist residential business. Backed by A-rated capacity providers, the business has built a strong reputation for underwriting expertise, broker service and market responsiveness.

The Role:

Joining a dedicated New Business team, you’ll focus on driving income growth, improving conversion rates and developing broker relationships across a varied portfolio of specialist property risks. This is a genuine trading role, offering exposure to everything from e-traded business through to larger and more complex cases, with significant underwriting authority and broker interaction.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Underwriting new business property risks across a specialist portfolio
  • Driving profitable growth and conversion performance
  • Building and developing broker relationships
  • Trading and negotiating to win and retain business
  • Representing the business through broker meetings and market engagement

About You:

You’ll have underwriting experience within household, property or specialist lines and enjoy the relationship-building and commercial side of underwriting. Applications are welcomed from both standard and non-standard household underwriters looking to move into a more trading-focused environment.

What’s in it for You?

You’ll be joining a dedicated Manchester New Business team of 12 people in a business that genuinely empowers its underwriters. The culture is collaborative, energetic and focused on recognising success, developing talent and creating opportunities for progression. Regular broker engagement forms part of the role, including market visits and occasional travel to London, making this an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build their market presence and influence growth.

If you’re looking for a role with genuine underwriting authority, strong broker interaction and the opportunity to make a real impact on new business performance, we’d be delighted to hear from you.
