  • Ensuring all managed programs adhere to agreed service standards and corporate guidelines
  • Supporting AXA's business development and client relationship initiatives
  • Contributing to ongoing Projects aimed at enhancing the AXA servicing model
Your ProfileWhat we're seeking:
  • Understanding of the Property underwriting market and a keen interest in working within the London and International markets, focusing on specialized Real Estate brokers and clients
  • Solid understanding of legislative and regulatory requirements in insurance, including treating customers fairly
  • Self-motivated and adept at managing your workload independently, operating strategically, and actively influencing the future direction of client service
  • Willingness to go the extra mile, constantly seeking ways to streamline processes and advance, with the ability to prioritize effectively
  • Pragmatic decision-maker with strong analytical and numerical reasoning abilities
  • Preferably some experience in managing international insurance programs
As a prerequisite for this role, you must be eligible and authorized to work in the United Kingdom.

This role falls under the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD) category, meaning that in addition to pre-employment checks, the successful candidate will undergo background screening every 4 years, with an annual declaration in interim years.
