About Brit

We are change-makers enabled by a global workforce who collaborate to deliver a risk service. A team empowered to help our customers not only to survive the risks they face, but to stay on the front foot and keep moving forward. We believe the uncertainty of tomorrow isn't something to fear but to seize; that it's full of potential. Not only for our customers but our employees too.

What you'll be doing



As an Underwriter in our Healthcare team, you'll play a key role in underwriting insurance and reinsurance risks for Brit Global Specialty in line with the approved business plan and your individual authorisation levels. You'll work closely with the Class Underwriter to develop new business opportunities, monitor capacity and support the preparation and maintenance of the business plan. You'll also build strong relationships with brokers and represent Brit at client meetings, conferences and client trips.



You'll bring sound judgement to evaluating risks, present your own risks at peer review meetings and contribute to discussions on business written across the division. Alongside supporting market research and business development, you'll help ensure relevant information is recorded and reported within regulatory requirements and that risks are written in line with regulatory guidelines. You'll be joining an experienced, market leading underwriting team where you can continue to build your market knowledge, strengthen relationships and make a visible contribution to the growth of the business.



We welcome everyone wholeheartedly



We've got a truly diverse, genuinely inclusive work environment. We comfortably and confidently bring our whole selves to work, because we know we'll be respected, valued and accepted whoever we are. Our Employee Resource groups are safe spaces for people to share their experiences, aspirations and suggestions about how we do things.
