Director - Captive & Insurance Management

Are you a senior insurance professional—underwriter, broking leader, or enterprise client leader looking for the next step to shape strategy and deliver excellence at scale? Aon’s Captive Insurance Management leadership team in Guernsey is seeking a forward-thinking Insurance Director. This is an exceptional opportunity for a seasoned insurance leader to join our team and partner with the Managing Director to ensure our strategic vision, growth ambitions, and service standards are achieved.

This leadership role is ideal for those driving complex insurance solutions for global clients or steering underwriting/broking teams, who now wish to broaden their impact—overseeing commercial, reinsurance, and ILS business, and leading high-performing client service teams. This is a hybrid role with the flexibility to work both virtually from home in Guernsey, and from the office in St Peter Port.

What the day will look like:

• Lead, direct, develop and motivate colleagues toward the accomplishment of business and company goals and objectives, and the accomplishment of personal objectives.
• Identification and development and ongoing training/education of staff in order enhance skills and achieve succession-planning objectives.
• Ensure that all client needs are catered for by staff working under you and/or other Directors and Client Executives.
• Support an overall ‘Aon United,’ “one team” ethic.
• Develop/maintain the client servicing teams such that all client, regulatory and group requirements are met.
• Structure the team in a manner that enables it to meet all client, regulatory and Aon Group requirements, and such that it seamlessly cooperates alongside other teams.
• Become a member of the AIMG Board within a short time horizon, subject to performance, supporting the Managing Director and other board members in resolving strategy and service structures and always ensuring the corporate good standing of the Company.
• Work with Senior Managers and Client Executives to ensure the right level of resource is assigned to each client.
• Support team members with high-level fee negotiations/discussions with clients/other areas of Aon (i.e. Bermuda where Guernsey performs a support function).
• Ensure group IT/IP investment goals are met and utilised such as SICS and MS Dynamics.
• Ensure client profitability is prioritized, balanced by adequate resourcing to deliver the necessary service levels.
• Maintain a strong working relationship with the ACIM and Aon Group function leaders plus service centre leaders in Bangalore and Poland.

Skills and experience that will lead to success:

• ACII (or equivalent) is required; additional credentials in business, leadership, or governance (MBA, Diploma IoD) will set you apart but not essential.
• Deep technical knowledge of insurance, reinsurance, and a strategic grasp of accounting, tax, and legal considerations for complex risks.
• Proven track record in leading high-value insurance teams, custom solutions, and large client portfolios in dynamic markets.
• Strong change-management skills—driving strategy from concept to implementation.
• Client-centric mindset, with a history of delivering outstanding service quality within commercial constraints.
