You will also ensure that products are designed with the customer in mind, that they offer value for money, and are fully compliant. You will be working with various stakeholders including Marketing, Compliance and Sales teams to ensure the maximum up-take of products from the end consumer. Analysing and manipulating data, you will review the ongoing performance of schemes, identifying any areas for improvement. Using your well-honed communication skills, you will report back to your clients to discuss account performance, explain trends, and relay complex insurance subjects in layman's terms. You must have a good degree of underwriting experience, with strong numerical ability. Our client is open to candidates from any insurance product discipline, as full training will be provided on these specialist lines.

You will be rewarded with an attractive salary and benefits package, with an extremely generous holiday allowance, which some years could give you up to 40 days' holiday! The firm also operates a flexible working policy, and whilst you can work in the superb office as much as you like, you can work up to 3 days per week from home, if you so wish. As we are sure you will have gathered by now, opportunities like this really do not present themselves regularly within the Yorkshire insurance market, so apply in confidence today to avoid disappointment.

In the counties either side of the English / Welsh border, this broker is very much known as a local name; a firm you can trust, and one that understands the issues faced by those who live and work in rural areas. It is a long-established and much respected broker that has crafted a fine reputation for delivering the highest levels of customer service and innovative insurance solutions to clients from a variety of industry sectors. Over the past year or so, the team has appointed several new Account Executives to the Bromyard office, and now seeks to complement these with the appointment of an experienced Account Handler, to deal with either commercial or Agricultural clients, or a combination of the two. This broker's Agri' portfolio comprises pastoral and arable risks, as well as farms that have diversified to include enterprises such as fishing lakes, cafes and 'glamping' facilities. The commercial portfolio covers a range of industries reflecting the local business community, such as Retail, Haulage, Property Owners or Manufacturing. Depending on your skills and background, you could be dealing with SME clients paying less than £5K GWP, right up to much more complex corporate clients with premiums around the £50K mark. Ideally, you will have either commercial or agricultural insurance experience, and this will preferably have been gained in a broking environment but we will consider outstanding candidates from a personal lines background. Knowledge of the full range of commercial or agricultural covers would be beneficial, although there is ample support in house to help you to fill any gaps in expertise. You must also have a genuine passion for client service, excellent (written and verbal) communication skills, and pride yourself on your ability to build a friendly yet professional rapport with people from all walks of life. The firm is ideally seeking someone 5 days per week 9am-5pm although they will consider applications from outstanding candidates who seek slightly reduced hours. You will benefit from a basic salary that is very competitive in the local market, a company pension and support towards professional qualifications.

This is a rare opportunity for a Property Underwriter to join a niche insurer in Leeds that is experiencing an exciting period of growth. This company is a market-leader in its specialist fields and as a result of continued success, has secured the backing of a private equity house to facilitate continued growth and the launch of exciting new products.This is a varied role, which will involve the underwriting of substantial Property scheme business. Working closely with a select number of high-profile brokers, you will ensure the continued profitability of existing accounts, some of which have up to 120,000 insured properties per policy generating individual premiums of up to £3.5M.

As such, you must have strong numeracy skills, great attention to detail, and be competent with using a variety of IT packages including Microsoft Excel. Just as importantly, you'll have excellent communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in a small team, whilst liaising with a range of internal and external stakeholders.Our client operates a hybrid-working arrangement, which will allow you to work a couple of days from home. Moreover, this is a very flexible business, which truly cares about its employees' wellbeing and work life balance, and will accommodate any required flexibility accordingly.
