Job description

I’m working with a well-backed specialist MGA building out a new Healthcare / Medical Malpractice proposition in London.

The business already has strong capacity in place and is looking to hire an experienced underwriter to play a key role in developing the portfolio alongside the existing leadership team.

The role will offer significant influence across underwriting strategy, product development, broker engagement and the longer-term direction of the Healthcare proposition.

There is a strong preference for someone with international Healthcare / MedMal experience, particularly non-US business, although strong UK-focused healthcare underwriters would also be considered.

The ideal background would include:

• Healthcare / Medical Malpractice underwriting experience
• Strong broker relationships and a commercial approach to developing business
• International exposure, ideally across non-US territories
• Experience across open-market and/or delegated authority business
• Interest in product development and building a portfolio rather than simply inheriting an existing book

This is an entrepreneurial opportunity within a well-established MGA platform, with excellent capacity backing and the potential for equity participation for the right individual.
