• Check market security against MNK's approved security list.

Leadership

• Keep accurate file notes, placing records and client communications for audit and regulatory review.
• Meet Senior Managers & Certification Regime (SM&CR) fitness and propriety requirements.

Skills, experience and qualifications

• 12+ years in aviation insurance or reinsurance broking, with at least 5 years placing in the London market at senior level.
• A proven record as a producer, with a portable network of aviation clients, producing brokers or overseas partners.
• Strong relationships with lead aviation underwriters at Lloyd's and in the company market.
• Deep technical knowledge of aviation policy wordings (e.g. AVN clauses), London Market practice and placing platforms such as PPL.
• Experience placing business from overseas markets, including dealing with local regulations and fronting arrangements.
• Excellent negotiation, presentation and written skills.
• A clear understanding of FCA and Lloyd's regulation and conduct requirements.
• ACII or Chartered Insurance Broker status, or working towards it.
