You may already be experienced working within the insurance, financial or risk sectors or alternatively, you may be looking for a career change. Previous experience working in administrative or clerical roles is highly desirable.

In this role, you will be comfortable working to our businesses’ SLAs, as well as delivering great results to agreed timescales. We are also looking for someone who is able to offer suggestions for improvements which can be made to processes and is a solutions-based thinker.

As an underwriting administrator, you will be a strong communicator who is able to work well as part of a team, as well as someone who is able to provide excellent support to our underwriters. You will also be proficient with MS packages and familiar with using in-house database systems.

In return you will be welcomed and supported by our Ardonagh family and be joining an organisation that cares about you as a person and your wellbeing. Some of the other benefits are:

- Holiday entitlement of 26 days plus bank holidays.
- Opportunity to progress your career across the entire Ardonagh family.
