Underwriter II – Mergers & Acquisitions

London, UK

In a world of fast-paced and competitive transactional activity, professionals need every tool at their disposal in order to manage risks arising from deals, whilst facilitating execution as quickly and efficiently as possible.With both M&A and title insurance solutions becoming increasingly commonplace, now more than ever our clients need to be confident that they have a credible, experienced, and service-oriented insurance partner.

AXA XL provides transactional risk solutions for mergers and acquisitions, investments, real estate and other asset purchases and disposals and many other commercial transactions.To provide a seamless service and better respond to our clients' needs, we have recently taken the market-leading step of bringing together our M&A and title teams under one umbrella, enabling us to provide a truly joined-up and comprehensive approach to transactional risks.

Our combined offering now encompasses a broad suite of products, each of which can be used in different ways to facilitate transactions (primarily through warranty and indemnity or title insurance) or to manage other corporate risk (through tax, contingent or litigation liability insurance).Furthermore, we have the capability to underwrite transactions globally thanks to our growing team of underwriters based across London, Paris and New York.

DISCOVER your opportunity

Our M&A practice has a great opportunity for an experienced underwriter to join their successful team and support the expansion of the practice.

Collaborating with and helping to instruct and supervise external legal counsel hired to represent AXA XL on each transaction.  Developing and cultivating relationships with M&A insurance brokers, lawyers, private equity firms, deal principals and internal AXA XL colleagues. Contribution towards the running of the accounts, including monitoring and managing status/progress of accounts implementation from quote processing to policy issuance, premium collection and policy maintenance (certificates, endorsements etc.) Working with our colleagues in AXA XL's claims team to deal with policy notifications and claims.
