Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Aston Charles Full time
Key Responsibilities

We are seeking a skilled Commercial Underwriter to join our team at Aston Charles in Leeds. This exciting opportunity has arisen due to internal promotions, offering a talented underwriter the chance to take on new challenges and grow within our company.

In this role, you will be responsible for handling a diverse range of Social Welfare, Care, Not For Profit, and Charity policies. Key duties will include underwriting renewal cases, collaborating with the Claims team, and developing strong relationships with the Technical department and wider business.

While prior experience in Social Welfare/Care insurance is not essential, you must have some underwriting experience encompassing Property (Commercial or Domestic) and/or Liability. This could also be an excellent opportunity for Insurance Brokers looking to transition into an underwriting role. The ideal candidate will be well-organized, efficient, and possess excellent communication skills, as regular telephone interactions with brokers are required.

Aston Charles operates a hybrid-working arrangement, allowing you to work from home two days a week. Our office environment is known for being friendly, supportive, and collaborative, with plenty of social events and sports activities available, including an annual summer ball.

You will be rewarded with a competitive basic salary (£40,000 - £60,000), plus a 25% bonus scheme and attractive corporate benefits, including pension contributions and financial bonuses for passing CII qualifications.
