IPS Group are working on behalf of a leading name in the commercial insurance market who are currently looking to hire an experienced and technically strong property underwriter to step into a key role within their commercial underwriting function.
This is an exciting opportunity to shape risk appetite, support governance, and influence strategy across a diverse commercial property portfolio without direct line management responsibilities. This role will suit either a Senior Property Underwriter stepping up to Underwriting Manager or an existing Underwriting Manager looking for their next challenge.
About the Role:
As Property Underwriting Manager, youll play a central part in overseeing and advising on property-related underwriting risks and wordings. Reporting into the Director of Underwriting, youll collaborate closely with senior underwriting and claims leaders to support business line profitability and technical excellence.
Key Responsibilities:
* Set and refine risk appetite for commercial property underwriting
* Oversee aggregation monitoring and reinsurance exposures
* Provide technical guidance on property underwriting risks (e.g., flood, crime)
* Work closely with underwriting teams to advise on risk selection, pricing, and governance
* Support senior underwriters with property-related issues
* Monitor and drive profitability across the property book (currently £40M GWP, £30B exposure)
* Engage with stakeholders at all levels from senior leadership to new underwriters
What Were Looking For:
* Extensive experience in commercial property underwriting
* Strong technical knowledge of commercial property and combined products
* Confident working across underwriting, claims, and delegated authority teams
* Comfortable working autonomously in a non-people management role
* Ready to influence underwriting strategy and lead on technical property issues
