We are seeking an Underwriting Administrator to join our Casualty Treaty team, providing high-quality administrative and operational support to underwriters. This role is a vital part of ensuring the underwriting function runs smoothly, accurately, and in line with internal processes and regulatory requirements.
This is a dedicated administration role, well suited to someone who enjoys structured, process-driven work, takes pride in accuracy, and wants to build a strong and stable career in insurance operations and underwriting support, rather than moving into an underwriting role itself.
Key Responsibilities
- Entering and maintaining risk and policy data accurately across underwriting systems
- Producing, maintaining, and updating underwriting files in line with guidelines and workflows
- Supporting underwriting teams by ensuring documentation and records are complete and up to date
- Monitoring and maintaining operational, compliance, and financial controls (e.g. SOX, Aged Debt reports)
- Assisting with income monitoring, contract signings, and chasing late payments where required
- Ensuring underwriting systems and established processes are consistently followed
- Providing a professional, responsive administrative service to multiple stakeholders

- Essential:
- Strong attention to detail and a structured approach to work
- Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Word
- Ability to manage deadlines, prioritise tasks, and work methodically
- Clear communication skills, both written and verbal
- Professional, reliable, and customer-focused attitude
- Desirable:
- Experience in insurance administration or underwriting support
- Familiarity with underwriting or policy administration systems
- Numeric and analytical confidence
Career Scope
This role is designed as a long-term underwriting administration position, offering stability, consistency, and the opportunity to deepen expertise in insurance processes, data accuracy, and operational controls. Support may be provided for relevant professional qualifications, where appropriate, to strengthen administrative and technical knowledge.
Why Apply?
A clearly defined, structured administrative role. Exposure to the London Market casualty treaty environment. Supportive team culture with professional standards. Ideal for candidates who enjoy organisation, process ownership, and operational excellence.
