• Relevant education, ideally to degree level or with professional qualifications (e.g., CII, IRM, IOSH/NEBOSH).
• Demonstrable experience in property insurance risk roles like engineering or loss control within a pan-European setting.
• Strong technical knowledge in risk control, fire protection, modern construction materials, and fire codes.
• Proficiency with IT tools and handling large datasets.
• A team-oriented, problem-solving mindset with a can-do attitude.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build strong relationships and influence others to manage property risks.
• Bonus points for experience in a second European country.
