P&C Development Underwriter — Scotland
to £75,000 plus bonus and great benefits
Sector: Commercial Insurance | Location: Scotland (Hybrid) | Level: Senior / Mid-Corporate
I am delighted to be partnering with one of the world's leading commercial insurers on a key appointment within their Scottish operation. This is a high-profile, externally-facing Development Underwriter role sitting at the heart of their Mid-Market and Mid-Corporate strategy in Scotland — and a genuine opportunity for an ambitious underwriting professional to shape how a major insurer partners with the broker community north of the border.
This is not a desk underwriting role. It's a business development and technical underwriting position combined — requiring someone who can lead on large, complex cases, build and own broker relationships at a senior level, and drive profitable new business growth through their own pipeline.
The role
Act as the face of the business in presenting propositions for larger Mid-Market and Mid-Corporate risks, drawing on deep industry knowledge and technical underwriting expertise.
Work with internal Trading Underwriters to negotiate coverage, wordings and pricing that differentiate the proposition and meet customer needs.
Proactively build and manage a robust pipeline of qualified Mid-Market and Mid-Corporate new business opportunities, leveraging both client and broker relationships.
Lead and fully embed the large case management process for new business across the Scottish region.
Develop and own collaborative broker relationships — and in some cases direct client relationships — taking full accountability for the generation, placement and retention of profitable commercial business from self-sourced activity.
Underwrite profitable new and existing business, in line with established underwriting controls and practices, and act as a referral point for the branch.
Develop and maintain a quality distribution strategy and communication plan with key influential brokers to ensure financial KPIs are met.
Maintain a strong understanding of the regional book's performance.
Experience
Expert P&C technical underwriting knowledge, with a strong track record within the Scottish market.
A proven record of securing and retaining large-scale, complex commercial business through established senior broker relationships.
Demonstrable technical and sales experience, with effective pipeline management at Mid-Market or Mid-Corporate level.
Strong insight development capability, with experience managing both customer and broker portfolios.
Personal impact and influence — comfortable presenting, negotiating, and persuading at senior level.
Excellent communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills.
DIP CII qualified or equivalent, with a proven track record in underwriting Mid-Market and Mid-Corporate commercial risks.
