Remote, United Kingdom XS Assure Limited Full time

**About Us**

XS Assure (XSA) was launched in 2021 and is a specialist underwriter of financial and professional lines risks in the UK and internationally. XSA's core business has been underwriting UK Excess of Loss risks where it originates business from ~130 insurance brokers.

Over the next year, we are looking to double the number of insurance brokers we trade with and grow our premium written by 50% - 100% alongside expanding into primary layers and deductible infill risks as well as broadening internationally and into adjacent classes. In the UK, we currently underwrite and/or place business with 4 risk carriers. Internationally, with 3 risk carriers.

To date, XSA has been very successful in building a sizeable and profitable portfolio due to its wide risk appetite, its ability to underwrite risks based on merit, empowered underwriters and a commitment to fast turnaround time on all quotes to insurance brokers.

Operationally, XSA employs 11 staff who all work from home. Culturally, it's very entrepreneurial and fast-moving with a focus on always building a better, smarter business with little bureaucracy. XSA is looking to bring on additional talent with the same ethos.
