You will work closely with internal stakeholders, brokers, and the wider underwriting team to ensure risk assessment and pricing decisions align with business objectives. You will also be responsible for driving broker relationships and trading, and managing the team here in conjunction with your fellow Senior Underwriter. This role will need to be based from the Romford office at least 2 or 3 days a week with the rest being able to be based from home. They will however consider someone doing 1 or 2 days in Romford and another from their box in Lloyds too. Salary on offer is £70k-100k with a 10-15% annual bonus based on individual performance. Office hours are Monday to Friday 8:30-5pm/9am-5:30pm with 1 hour for lunch. They also offer a good company pension and Bupa cover.
