About the Role

NFU Mutual's Head Office Underwriting Department is seeking an experienced professional to join them as an Engineering Insurance Underwriter on a 12-month Fixed Term Contract basis to support the company's planned growth. The role has the potential to become permanent for the right candidate, however we are unable to guarantee that at this stage.

The successful candidate will have a wealth of Underwriting or Broker experience in Engineering Breakdown Insurance and will be responsible for recommending and developing the underwriting strategy for our Engineering Insurance offering. This will involve establishing appropriate rules, terms and risk features that will enable the delivery of profit and growth objectives while effectively managing insurance risk in line with the overall underwriting strategy.

The role will involve working closely with our Propositions department and other key stakeholders to help set the parameters of our growth targets and define our risk appetite. Key responsibilities will include:

  • Translating underwriting appetite into workable rules, processes and communications for use by NFU Mutual Agents and Underwriters to enable the effective execution of risk appetite and optimise the performance of the sales channel.
  • Reviewing and providing 'expert judgement' to risk rates to ensure rates and rating logic are informed with the benefit of deep insurance and market knowledge.
  • Collating and analysing management information to identify opportunities for improving our underwriting strategy and ensuring we are in the best position to meet our current and new business requirements.

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of the Engineering Insurance market and excellent knowledge of the factors that influence its performance. They will also have strong negotiation skills, influencing abilities, and experience collaborating with a range of stakeholders. Effective communication style and the ability to present information to different audiences is also essential.
