An established market-leading Insurer, where over the past 5 years, the Chaucer Group has seen significant and successful growth. In 2019, we wrote $1.4bn of Gross Written Premium, closed 2023 with $2.7bn, and are on track to write well over $3bn in 2024.

This is an exciting time for Chaucer; we have the people, the platforms, the expertise, and the relationships to continue our recent success. We will remain focused on the areas where we can provide the most expertise and value to our brokers and clients.

We have no appetite to change this, whilst the market is steadily moving back to 4/1 working days, we are continuing to operate on a much more flexible hybrid basis with Heads of teams working closely with employees to strike a balance of what works best in their area. Our approach has been immensely popular and a successful way of working for the business and all employees at Chaucer.

Chaucer is committed to diversity, actively values difference and respects people regardless of the protected characteristics which are outlined in the Equality Act 2010 (UK legislation) as a result of the Equal Treatment Directive 2006 (EU legislation).

A diverse workforce and an inclusive workplace are core to our success as a business and integral to our winning strategy and culture. We recruit from the widest available pool of talent, and our hiring, assessment, and selection process is fair, free from bias and one which ensures we select the right person for the job, based on merit. We are committed to promoting a culture that actively values difference, and recognises that everyone has the right to be treated with dignity and respect throughout their employment.
