The role will include:

• Preparing quote slips and MRC documentation
• Managing endorsements and policy documentation
• Progressing placements and documentation through PPL
• Liaising directly with underwriters, clients and retail brokers
• Supporting the presentation of risks and negotiation of terms
• Managing an active European pipeline and tracking outstanding quotes, subjectivities and renewals
• Working closely with a senior producer throughout the policy lifecycle
• Developing specialist product and market knowledge

We’re particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have:

• Experience within insurance account handling, broking support or a similar technical role
• Exposure to the London Insurance Market
• Working knowledge of MRC slips and policy documentation
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• The confidence to communicate with brokers, clients and underwriters
• A proactive approach and an interest in developing further on the broking side
• Experience with PPL would be advantageous, although training can be provided.
