You’ll support the team across a variety of areas, including supporting new business development, underwriting renewal accounts, building and maintaining broker relationships and responding to Profession queries from other product line underwriters.
Respond to broker enquiries and renewal submissions, delivering quotations within agreed SLAs and underwriting authority.
Promote the features and benefits of CFC’s Professions products, supporting product launches and market awareness initiatives.
Support the creation and delivery of internal and external presentations on products, market trends, and emerging risks.
Conduct research to build technical expertise and stay informed on relevant regulatory and compliance developments.
Contribute to product, system, process, and policy improvement projects.
Support team performance through effective collaboration and delivery against objectives.
Help grow CFC’s US Professions business by developing broker relationships and supporting marketing initiatives, including occasional US travel.
Produce reports and management information to monitor team performance and activity.
Provide general administrative and ad hoc support to the wider US Professions team.
About you
We're looking for proactive, motivated individuals who thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy contributing to a high-performing team. This role offers the opportunity to further develop both your underwriting and business development skills. We're particularly interested in candidates with a background in either broking or underwriting ready to take the next step in their career.
Experience within Professional Indemnity or related professions classes is highly desirable, alongside the ability to build strong, lasting relationships with brokers and colleagues.
You'll have strong analytical skills, excellent attention to detail, and the confidence to make sound decisions. Most importantly, you'll enjoy working collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders to help drive the continued growth of the business.
Core Values
Love what you do: We show up each day ready to take on the world. Our passion and intensity set us apart and makes the difference to our colleagues, customers, brokers and carriers.
Challenge everything: We’re never afraid to question the way that things are done and we constantly challenge ourselves and others to makes things better.
Have fun, be good: Insurance is a serious business, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We make it fun to work at CFC, we welcome all viewpoints, and we treat everyone how we would expect to be treated.
