Key responsibilities include: - Underwriting mid-market Property & Casualty risks across a diverse range of sectors - Driving profitable new business growth across the Manchester region - Building and strengthening relationships with key regional and national brokers - Identifying and capitalising on new trading opportunities - Supporting portfolio performance and regional underwriting objectives - Representing the business in the market and becoming a trusted underwriting partner About You: You'll have Property & Casualty underwriting experience gained within an insurer or MGA environment, alongside strong broker relationship management skills and a commercial mindset. Whether you're already operating at Senior Underwriter level or you're an ambitious Underwriter ready for the next step, you'll enjoy developing broker relationships, identifying opportunities and trading effectively to achieve profitable growth. Why Join? Join a globally recognised insurer with an excellent reputation in the market and a track record of investing in its underwriting talent. You'll benefit from genuine underwriting authority, strong leadership support and clear opportunities for career progression. The business has made significant investment in technology, data and underwriting capability, providing underwriters with the tools and insight needed to make informed decisions and succeed in a competitive market. You'll also enjoy a collaborative culture, flexible working arrangements and the opportunity to work alongside experienced underwriting professionals who are passionate about developing talent and driving growth. Hybrid Working This is a hybrid role, with your time split between the Manchester office, broker visits and home working. Typically, around 60% of your week will be spent in the office or meeting brokers, providing a strong balance between flexibility and market engagement. If you're looking for a role where you can build broker relationships, influence growth strategy and be trusted to make underwriting decisions, we'd be delighted to hear from you.
