It’s an exciting time to join the AXA Commercial team as we continue our significant growth to support our overall strategic business objectives. As a result, we’re looking to further grow the London Commercial New Business team and bring to market a great opportunity to join us as a NB Senior Underwriter focusing on Non-National brokers in the Mid-Market space.
The Senior Underwriter plays a critical role in managing the profitability and income of the branch, owning the financial results for designated accounts and brokers. The role demands a high level of influence on the Underwriting team, increasing the ability to collaborate with a range of stakeholders and developing the technical and trading capability of the branch.
The role encompasses many opportunities to contribute to the development and success of the team, not just from a growth and profitability perspective but driving service excellence to our customers. Ensuring close collaboration is supported internally across the teams will be an important focus area, as this will enable the team to be set up for success, by engaging and building key relationships with the brokers and stakeholders in the Non-National brokers in the Mid-Market space.
At AXA we work smart, empowering our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team, and our customers. You'll work at least 60% of your week away from home, either at our office in London, visiting clients or attending industry events.
What you’ll be doing:
Deliver planned underwriting results through proactive account review, analysis of underwriting trends and implementing improvement.
Underwrite new business profitably, accurately, consisently and in line with established underwriting practices and governance framework.
Use information gathering, a strong knowledge of policy wordings and industry trends to select, understand and assess risks.
Make sound assessments of the probability of exposure to determine a suitable premium from an accurately established technical price.
Develop credibility with brokers and customers and understand all aspects of importance to both the broker and customer, designing a solution which meets those needs.
Build influential relationships externally and internally, take ownership and respond to broker demands in a timely manner and keep them informed about relevant ongoing activity.
Coach, train and develop Underwriters to continually improve their technical and trading capability.
Support the Trading Team Manager to effectively manage the service provided to brokers.
Build a reputation as a trading expert with a panel of intermediaries and build confidence in the branch ability through interaction with our Underwriting Technical Centre.
