Job description

High Net Worth Underwriter Remote Up to 40,000

If you know the HNW market inside out - and now want the freedom to shape how it's done? Then this could be the move you've been waiting for.

This independent insurance group has grown rapidly across the Channel Islands, known for its quality underwriting, strong capacity relationships, and genuine focus on doing things properly. They're now looking for an experienced High Net Worth Underwriter to take ownership of a portfolio of complex, high-value personal lines clients - delivering tailored solutions with precision and care.

The Role

You’ll underwrite and manage a range of high-value personal risks, from prestige homes to collections and motor, ensuring profitability and service excellence across your portfolio. You’ll work closely with brokers, private client managers, and insurers to deliver bespoke solutions that protect what matters most to your clients.

Alongside day-to-day underwriting, you’ll support process improvements, mentor junior underwriters, and contribute to the continued growth and sophistication of the HNW offering.

What They’re Looking For

You’ll have at least 3‑5 years’ experience in HNW underwriting, ideally within a delegated authority or specialist environment. A strong understanding of the HNW market and its nuances is key - along with the confidence to make sound technical decisions and build long‑term relationships with brokers and partners.

Cert CII (or working toward it) would be ideal, as would experience handling complex and bespoke risks.

What's On Offer

• Salary up to 40,000 depending on experience
• Fully remote role, with occasional travel to the Channel Islands
• Opportunity to manage a diverse portfolio of high-value personal clients
• Exposure to complex and bespoke placements
• Support for professional qualifications and long-term career development
• Collaborative, growing business with a focus on quality over volume

If you’re ready to join a business where technical skill and client care come first - this is one worth exploring.
