Job Description:
This is a unique opportunity to lead and build a marine cargo underwriting platform. You will work directly with top international brokers, building your own portfolio and team from the ground up, without intermediaries. The role offers the potential to earn over £1 million in dividends within 3-5 years, contingent upon signing an NDA for further details.
The company is looking for a senior marine cargo underwriter to replace current insurers and syndicates, offering a chance to create something significant outside of traditional corporate structures. The firm already generates £20 million in premiums, with a strong network across the UK, US, and Australia, supported by top-tier infrastructure and underwriting teams. Leadership is hands-on and focused on growth rather than quick profits.
With a solid foundation in Inland Marine and Property insurance, the company aims to expand its international marine cargo offerings. The role involves securing capacity, developing direct broker relationships globally, and creating strategies to grow the marine cargo book. Travel, influence, and leadership opportunities are available as you build your team.
Compensation includes a competitive base salary up to £200,000, a 33% profit share, and potential significant payouts upon reaching key targets.
This position is ideal for a top marine cargo underwriter currently in a corporate environment who feels restricted and wants to develop direct relationships with international brokers, increasing earning potential without reliance on wholesalers. No CV is required at this stage.
