We don’t just deal with the ‘every day,’ we’re talking Classic Cars, Super Cars, Kit Cars and Campers. Motor fleets in their 1000s and some pretty fancy agricultural machinery. If it’s more than your average vehicle, we more than likely insure it.

As an Assistant Underwriter at ERS you’ll be helping our Teams research and assess the risk each Policy presents. Your main responsibilities will be to help us capture all the key information we need to decide whether we can offer insurance or make changes to an existing policy. You’ll do this using the comprehensive training you have received from one of our resident experts on department, referring to Underwriting Guides and experienced colleagues when you need support. No two policies are ever the same, so a keen eye for detail and accuracy are top of our list of requirements.

* Working within all regulatory requirements and guidelines – both internal and external.
* Proactively seek to learn and develop to ensure your best possible performance.
* Support and consistently demonstrate the behaviours expected in the high-performance culture at ERS.
