Managing Director - Construction Reinsurance
A highly respected, independent specialist reinsurance broking business — backed by a well-capitalised international group — is seeking an exceptional Managing Director-level professional to lead its Construction and Engineering facultative practice.
The business operates primarily across European markets with global reach, placing complex, large-value risks with carriers across Lloyd's, continental Europe, Singapore, New York, Bermuda and beyond.
This appointment sits at the heart of a deliberate and structured succession strategy. The person who takes this role will arrive with a platform, a mandate and the genuine expectation of shaping the strategic and operational direction of the business.
The Role
You will take strategic ownership of the Construction and Engineering facultative practice, leading complex risk placement across global markets while driving the commercial and operational direction of the business.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Alongside the incumbent leadership, you will execute a structured transition that positions you to assume full principal responsibility in due course.
Day-to-day this means leading on the placement of large, complex facultative programmes, owning senior client relationships, developing new business across target sectors and geographies, and contributing meaningfully to the strategic direction of a business with ambitious growth plans — particularly across energy transition, renewables and emerging markets backed by group-level opportunity.
What You'll Bring
- Extensive, demonstrable experience in facultative reinsurance broking across the construction and engineering sector is essential.
- You will have a track record of placing complex, large-value risks independently at senior level, with the carrier relationships, commercial credibility and personal gravitas to lead at board level and represent the business in global markets.
- Beyond the technical, you will be entrepreneurial in mindset — someone who thinks and acts like a principal, not a functionary.
- You'll be ambitious, collaborative, and genuinely motivated by the opportunity to own and shape a business rather than simply run a desk within one.
