London, United Kingdom The Fidelis Partnership Full time

About us


The Fidelis Partnership is a leading specialty, bespoke and (re)insurance business. We have built our name on a 40-year track record of outperformance, and we continue to beat the market in our underwriting and returns. More information on The Fidelis Partnership can be found at www.fidelispartnership.com/


The Company currently writes lines of business including; specialty insurance: aviation & aerospace, energy, marine, property, terror & political violence, contingency and other specialty lines; reinsurance: property reinsurance, property retrocession, specialty reinsurance, whole account/multi-class and bespoke.


Role Overview


The Fidelis Partnership is looking for a new Senior Energy Transition Underwriter to advance the company’s ability to support the progression towards a greener economy. Over the coming years, trillions of dollars of investment will be needed into clean energy, climate technology and carbon markets, and the demand for new insurance products to enable this will grow. The needs of existing energy clients are also evolving as these companies invest significant amounts into developing greener business models. The new Underwriter will help The Fidelis Partnership to take advantage of this emerging and substantial market opportunity. An element of the role will be underwriting a select group of Oil and Gas clients that we have identified as having clear, measurable emissions targets and we are willing to support them in their transition journey. Therefore, the role will include a renewal portfolio of Oil and Gas and also a new product line with these clients (carbon credits, hydrogen etc).


Key Accountabilities


  • Build out expertise on transition-related technologies, including the associated insurance value chains, client needs and product specifications (e.g. covering new types of renewables, hydrogen powered technology across various industries, carbon capture, carbon markets)
  • Underwriting the current O&G portfolio – optimising the portfolio within a green framework.
  • Identify clients and products which fit with the overall Fidelis approach and risk appetite to narrow down the potential opportunities into priority areas
  • Identify specific business opportunities and filter these, proposing risks to existing underwriting teams for execution – this will involve working with all lines of business as needed, including property, energy and renewables (open market as well as through Pine Walk cells)
  • Evaluate opportunities to adjust existing products by building in incentives for clients to transition
  • Develop a more holistic approach to energy clients to supplement traditional approach, which is segmented into traditional energy and renewables
  • Support underwriting teams on execution and thereby participate in the underwriting process: this includes evaluation and presentation of submissions, analysing and interpreting exposures, determining coverage and contract language
  • Key to this role is the origination, build-out and leveraging of broker and client relationships
  • Monitor market developments and remain current regarding knowledge of all relevant classes of business, including legislative and regulatory changes/requirements


Skills & Experience


  • Strong background in energy from an underwriting, engineering and/or advisory perspective, with minimum of 5 years’ experience in this industry
  • Established networks and strong existing relationships in the energy industry (across corporates, underwriters, brokers, advisors, etc)
  • Underwriting background is essential but insurance experience strongly preferred, which could include as a buyer of insurance, (Lloyd’s/London Market/specialty insurance/reinsurance) with good working knowledge of insurance market needed
  • Strong interest in transition and a desire to support the achievement of net zero objectives, alongside a more general commitment to doing business sustainably
  • Effective communication and engagement abilities with experience of working directly with underwriters and/or brokers strongly preferred
  • Demonstrated ability to combine technical analysis with judgment to provide insights for commercial decision-makers, while appropriately considering analytical limitations



The Fidelis Partnership Ethos


Our culture is defined by our ethos. It is the foundation of who we are and the core of everything we do.


  • Results – We want to be the best at the things we care about, so we focus on profitability over volume, with responsive decision-making and clear prioritised accountability.
  • Innovate – We aspire to lead the market in providing the services and products our clients need, and to drive change in the broader impact our industry has on human rights, society, and environmental sustainability.
  • Include – We create an environment where employees can bring their whole self to work, with open communication where everyone, irrespective of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or background, feels able to contribute ideas and be recognised and rewarded for their contribution
  • Unite – We operate as team of individual talents that actively seeks to reflect the diversity of the societies in which we operate, giving our business the widest range of inputs and perspectives.
  • Respond – We work in a business exposed to sudden shocks and changes – elemental, political, economic and human – so we remain nimble and ready for change.



Diversity, Equality & Inclusion


Our vision is for a workplace culture where differences are valued and where diversity of background, experience and thought are welcomed. We want to create an environment where all employees, regardless of who they are, are given equal opportunities for career progression and enjoy fair reward from their and The Fidelis Partnership successes. This will be driven by a workforce that embraces Diversity and Inclusion at every level, in every department across The Fidelis Partnership.
