Development Underwriter
(Prestigious Global Insurer)
JH-3136c
Attractive salary (Neg) plus market-leading bonus and benefits
Remote or Hybrid
We are delighted to be partnering with this world-leading insurance company that is seeking a Development Underwriter.
This is an exciting, newly-created position that has arisen with what is arguably the most exciting insurer in the market right now; growing 20% year on year, and on track to double in size over the next 5 years. This company is well-renowned for providing innovative insurance solutions, and uses its ingenuity to insure risks that others can’t.
As Development Underwriter, you’ll be required to source new business opportunities within the Care Insurance market.
Whilst specific experience within the Care Insurance sector would be welcomed, this is by no means essential, as product training will be provided. However, you must have previous experience of underwriting new business within the commercial insurance market, as a minimum.
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.
You’ll have a strong desire to be highly visible to brokers, encouraging development meetings and telephone contact. As well as leveraging your own relationships within the broker market, you’ll also work closely with the Development Director to secure profitable new relationships. Specific duties will include, but not be limited to, underwriting individual risks, identifying and securing scheme opportunities, attending networking events, and providing input to the Head of Care, reporting on broker activity and new business production.
The Divisional Director cites, “we have so many enquiries to keep our Development Underwriters really busy, and this is resulting in them being handsomely rewarded – both financially and with attractive career development opportunities within our business.”
You’ll benefit from working for a company that has a truly entrepreneurial approach to underwriting, and a genuine desire to write business.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
It's essential that you have a successful track record of developing new business in a broker-facing role, although we will consider applications from New Business / Trading Underwriters who are ready to step into a broking-facing role. Crucially, you will have a proven ability to win business, whilst maintaining underwriting discipline, and as a company ambassador, you will possess first-class communication and client-management skills.
You’ll be rewarded with an attractive basic salary (Negotiable, depending on experience), plus a market-leading bonus scheme and impressive corporate benefits, which include substantial pension contributions.
