Job description

Insurance Risk Surveyor

Location: Home-based with travel across the UK (approx. 60%)

Salary: Up to £100,000 + Benefits

Are you an experienced Risk Surveyor with strong technical knowledge across Property, Employers’ Liability, and Public Liability? Do you thrive on building trusted relationships, delivering high-quality risk assessments, and helping organisations reduce exposures?

This is an opportunity to join a specialist insurance provider that partners closely with organisations in the education and wider public sector. Known for its consultative approach, this business goes beyond traditional insurance — providing tailored risk management advice that directly influences underwriting, claims handling, and client resilience.

The Role

As an Insurance Risk Surveyor, you will:

• Conduct on-site and desktop risk reviews, producing high-quality underwriting and health & safety reports with clear recommendations and analysis.
• Provide tailored risk management support, including advice on emerging risks, new builds, refurbishments, and post-loss situations.
• Collaborate with internal teams to support new client acquisition, onboarding, and renewal processes.
• Work closely with the claims team to ensure excellent service delivery.
• Contribute to the development of underwriting strategies, risk appetite, and technical guidance.
• Engage with sector bodies, keeping abreast of industry developments and sharing insights through technical bulletins and reports.
• Support broader projects, publications, and initiatives that strengthen client relationships and risk management practices.

About You

We’re looking for someone who can bring:

• Proven experience surveying across all aspects of property, including business continuity, security, and health & safety.
• Strong analytical and communication skills, with the ability to deliver clear, actionable advice.
• Confidence in working independently while also collaborating as part of a wider team.
• The ability to work under pressure, meet deadlines, and maintain high standards of accuracy.
• A degree or relevant technical/insurance qualifications (desirable, not essential).

What’s on Offer

• Salary up to £100,000 plus a comprehensive benefits package.
• The chance to work with a mission-led insurer with a strong presence in the education and public sectors.
• An influential and varied role, where your input will shape client resilience, underwriting strategies, and risk appetite.
• Flexibility and autonomy in a home-based role, balanced with regular UK travel.
• Ongoing professional development and the opportunity to share expertise across national industry bodies.
