You should be confident, taking ownership of multiple projects and applying a high standard of quality and attention to detail to your work.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Use expert data analytical skills to provide a continuous cycle of optimisation, innovation and improvement of the underwriting rules and journey
  • Provide expert underwriting/claims expertise and knowledge to deliver and optimise each solution installation
  • Ensure the configuration reflects clients' and the company's risk appetite, optimises STP and uses behavioural science techniques to elicit optimal disclosure
  • Design and maintain underwriting/claims rulesets for new system implementation
  • Maintain regular communication with clients and regional market teams using expert data analysis.
  • Project management with a working knowledge of project management methodologies
  • Support new business development initiatives
  • Gain an in-depth understanding of underwriting / claims practices in local European markets.

What You Need:

  • Technology Skills - within an Underwriting environment
  • Ability to use Data and Analytics - looking at things like conversion and risk as well as dashboards.
  • Enthusiasm for things like predictive modelling, AI and augmenting underwriting technology
  • Skilled in auto underwriting / claims with configuration on logic / algorithms
