Senior Specialty Underwriter – Warranty & Assistance (EU Markets)
Remote within the EU or hybrid options depending on location
About the Role
We’re looking for a commercially minded underwriter with a flair for business development to help grow our EU warranty and assistance portfolio.
You’ll play a key role in shaping our strategy across multiple product lines — from warranty and embedded protection to home and roadside assistance — while developing new broker and distribution relationships across the UK and EU.
This is a rare opportunity to join an entrepreneurial, expanding business backed by a global insurance group. The role offers genuine autonomy, flexible working (remote from UK or Ireland), and the chance to make a measurable impact.
What You’ll Do
* Develop and grow an EU-facing underwriting portfolio across scalable, profitable segments.
* Originate, structure, and underwrite warranty and assistance business lines including:
* Phones, gadgets, and consumer electronics
* Electrical goods and small domestic appliances
* Scratch, dent & alloy cover
* Home and roadside assistance
* Embedded and opt-in warranty solutions
* Build and maintain strong broker, MGA, and distribution relationships across the UK and EU.
* Collaborate with senior leadership on strategy, product development, and pricing.
* Leverage your existing network and expertise to drive premium growth and new opportunities.
About You
* 5+ years’ experience in warranty, assistance, or specialty underwriting, ideally within an MGA or carrier environment.
* Solid technical understanding with a proven ability to originate and underwrite profitable schemes.
* Strong broker and intermediary network, with experience managing and developing accounts.
* Entrepreneurial, collaborative, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, growing environment.
* Equally happy negotiating a deal, refining a product, or shaping a growth plan.
What’s on Offer
* A pivotal role in shaping and expanding our EU warranty & assistance footprint.
* Full flexibility — work remotely from anywhere in the UK or Ireland, with travel as needed.
* Competitive package with strong bonus potential.
* A collaborative, ambitious team culture where initiative is valued and rewarded.
